I am serving as the Guest Editor of a special symposium issue of the Journal of Environmental Studies and Sciences, http://www.springer.com/environment/journal/13412 that will focus on Regional Fisheries Management Organizations. The Journal, published by Springer, is a publication of the Association of Environmental Studies and Sciences (AESS).
If you're interested in contributing to this issue, please send me a 75-100 word abstract at your earliest convenience; it is my hope to commission pieces within the next three weeks. Here are the key guidelines for the issue: 1. 3000-4000 words (though there is flexibility in this context, especially on the upper end); 2. Deadline for submission of first draft: April 1, 2011; 3. Anticipated publication date: December 15, 2011 I would also appreciate suggestions of other prospective authors; while this is a really important issue, the literature to date is rather sparse, especially on the law and policy side!
