Editors sought for RSS journals

Three journal editors for Series A, Series B and Series C will be finishing their terms of office at the end of 2024. Nominations for their successors are encouraged and welcomed by members of the Society.

Although the editors’ work is mainly concerned with the assessment of manuscripts for publication in the journals, in collaboration with their editorial panels, joint editors of the journal series are also involved in the ongoing formulation and review of policy with the publishers (Oxford University Press) and the Publications Network of Advisors.

The editorships of the Society’s journals are important and prestigious positions, but they are also demanding and time consuming. The people who undertake them perform an invaluable service for the Society. The normal term of office for the editors of Series A and Series C is four years; there are three editors of Series B, who each serve a three-year term.

  • Michael Elliot (Chair and continuing Joint Editor) for Series A
  • Daniela Witten (Chair and continuing Joint Editor) for Series B
  • Thomas Kneib (Chair and continuing Joint Editor) for Series C.
Applications or nominations should be addressed to the chair of the appropriate search committee, care of the journals manager, Judith Shorten. Please send these by email to journal@rss.org.uk by 9 February 2024.

Any queries in connection with the editorship should be directed to Judith.
