Philosophy and Principles
Open Review
Common Ground’s approach to peer review is open and inclusive, and at the same based on rigorous,
anonymous peer review. Reviewers are selected on the basis of subject matter and disciplinary
expertise. Our peer review processes are criterion-referenced. Qualitative and quantitative assessment
for publication is based on clearly articulated evaluation rubrics. The result is a peer review process
that is scrupulously fair in its assessments at the same time as offering a carefully structured and
constructive contribution to the shape of the published paper.
Participatory
Common Ground takes seriously the “peer” of peer review. Articles published in our journals are
reviewed by scholars, who are active members their respective knowledge community. Reviewers
may be past or present conference delegates, fellow submitters to the collection, or scholars who
have volunteered to review papers (and have been screened by Common Ground’s editorial team).
This engagement with the knowledge community, as well as Common Ground’s criterion-referenced
evaluation system, distinguishes the Common Ground’s peer review process from journals that
have a more editor-centric approach to review. Reviewers are assigned to papers based on their
academic interests and scholarly expertise. In recognition of the valuable feedback and publication
recommendations that they provide, reviewers are acknowledged as Associate Editors in the volume
that includes the paper(s) they reviewed.
Intellectual Excellence
The result is a publishing process which is without prejudice to institutional affiliation, stage in career,
national origins or disciplinary perspective. If the paper is excellent, and has been systematically
and independently assessed as such, it will be published. This is why Common Ground journals
have so much exciting new material, much originating from well known research institutions but
also a considerable amount of brilliantly insightful and innovative material from academics in lesser
known institutions in the developing world, emerging researchers, people working in hard-to-classify
interdisciplinary spaces and researchers in liberal arts colleges and teaching universities. In recognition
of the highest levels of excellence, every year an international prize is awarded for the top-ranked paper
in each journal.
Access
All our journals are available in both print and electronic formats. Our journals offer two open access
options: Hybrid Open Access and Institutional Open Access. Hybrid Open Access allows authors
3
| About Common Ground Journals
to pay a modest fee to make their work freely available to anyone. Institutional Open Access allows
institutions to work directly with Common Ground to support the open access publication efforts of
their students and faculty and include the typeset versions of published articles in their institutional
repositories. Common Ground’s non-open access content remains highly accessible with reasonable
subscription fees and inexpensive single article purchases.
The Business of Knowledge
Common Ground is developing a low-cost commercial approach to academic publishing. We believe
there are limitations in both the high cost commercial publishing and status quo open access publishing
models. Our desire is to find a practical middle way between the idealism of open access and the
inefficiencies and costs of the big journal publishers.

The Constructed Environment
The International Journal of the
Constructed Environment
About
The International Journal of the Constructed Environment publishes broad-ranging and
interdisciplinary articles on human configurations of the environment and the interactions between
the constructed, social, and natural environments. The journal brings together researchers, teachers,
and practitioners. The resulting articles weave between the empirical and the theoretical, research and
its application, the ideal and the pragmatic, and spaces which are in their orientations private, public,
communal, or commercial.
As well as papers of a traditional scholarly type, this journal invites presentations of practice—including
experimental forms of documentation and exegesis which can with equal validity be interrogated
through a process of peer review. This might, for instance, take the form of a series of images and plans,
with explanatory notes which articulate with other, significantly similar or different and explicitly
referenced places, sites, or material objects.

Religion in Society
The International Journal of
Religion and Spirituality in Society
About
The International Journal of Religion and Spirituality in Society aims to create an intellectual frame
of reference for the academic study of religion and spirituality, and to create an interdisciplinary
conversation on the role of religion and spirituality in society. It is intended as a place for critical
engagement, examination, and experimentation of ideas that connect religious philosophies to their
contexts throughout history in the world, places of worship, on the streets, and in communities. The
journal addresses the need for critical discussion on religious issues—specifically as they are situated
in the present-day contexts of ethics, warfare, politics, anthropology, sociology, education, leadership,
artistic engagement, and the dissonance or resonance between religious tradition and modern trends.
The International Journal of Religion and Spirituality in Society is peer-reviewed, supported by

Spaces & Flows
Spaces and Flows: An International Journal of
Urban and ExtraUrban Studies
About
Spaces and Flows: An International Journal of Urban and ExtraUrban Studies addresses some of
the most pressing and perturbing social, cultural, economic and environmental questions of our times,
focusing on spaces and flows as crucibles and vectors of ongoing transformation.
The Journal discusses two central issues:
• What are the new and emerging spaces of production, consumption, and human living as
communities, regions, and societies organize and re-organize in contemporary times?
• What are the new flows of people, goods, services, information, and ideas in current times? How
are they being constructed and how are they functioning?
In addressing these questions, our discussions range between the local the global, the empirical and the
theoretical, the utopian and the pragmatic, the disciplinary and the transdisciplinary, research and its
application, and the practices of knowledge making and those of knowledge dissemination.

Articles published in the Design Collection are peer reviewed by scholars who are active members
of the Design Principles and Practices knowledge community. Reviewers may be past or present
conference delegates, fellow submitters to the collection, or scholars who have volunteered to review
papers (and have been screened by Common Ground’s editorial team). This engagement with the
knowledge community, as well as Common Ground’s synergistic and criterion-based evaluation
system, distinguishes the Design Collection’s peer review process from journals that have a more topdown approach to refereeing. Reviewers are assigned to papers based on their academic interests and
scholarly expertise. In recognition of the valuable feedback and publication recommendations that
they provide, reviewers are acknowledged as Associate Editors in the volume that includes the paper(s)
they reviewed. Thus, in addition to the Design Collection’s Editors and Advisory Board, the Associate

diversity today, empirically and critically as well as optimistically and strategically, touching upon
the topics of globalization, identity, and social group formation. At a time of virulent reactions to
difference and globalization (ethno-nationalism, racist backlash, parochialism, and protectionism),
there is a pressing need to reflect critically on the shape and the possibilities of the normative agendas
of diversity and globalism. They aim to be a place for thinking about and discussing these pressing
matters, and in ways that range from the “big picture” and the theoretical to the practical and everyday
business of negotiating difference and diversity in organizations, communities, and civic life.
The Diversity Collection is relevant for academics, educators, and research students in the fields
of globalization, nationalism, anthropology and cultural studies, tourism studies, ethnic studies,
indigenous studies, gender studies, disability studies, gay and lesbian studies, diversity management;
public administrators and policy-makers; private and public sector leaders: diversity management,
equal employment opportunity, human resource development and workplace trainers and change
agents—anyone with an interest, and concern for, mediating cultural difference.

Associate Editors
Articles published in the Sport and Society Collection are peer reviewed by scholars who are active
members of the Sport and Society knowledge community. Reviewers may be past or present conference
delegates, fellow submitters to the collection, or scholars who have volunteered to review papers
(and have been screened by Common Ground’s editorial team). This engagement with the knowledge
community, as well as Common Ground’s synergistic and criterion-based evaluation system,
distinguishes the peer review process from journals that have a more top-down approach to refereeing.
Reviewers are assigned to papers based on their academic interests and scholarly expertise. In
recognition of the valuable feedback and publication recommendations that they provide, reviewers
are acknowledged as Associate Editors in the volume that includes the paper(s) they reviewed. Thus,
in addition to the Sport and Society Collection Editors and Advisory Board, the Associate Editors
contribute significantly to the overall editorial quality and content of the collection.

meeting point for technologists with a concern for the social and social scientists with a concern for
the technological. The focus is primarily, but not exclusively, on information and communications
technologies. Equally interested in the mechanics of social technologies and the social impact of
technologies, the Technology Collection is guided by the ideals of an open society, where technology
is used to address human needs and serve community interests. These concerns are grounded in the
values of creativity, innovation, access, equity, and personal and community autonomy. In this space,
commercial and community interests at times complement each other; at other times they appear to
be at loggerheads. The journals in the collection will examine the nature of the new technologies, their
connection with community, their use as tools for learning, and their place in a “knowledge society.”
The perspectives presented range from big picture analyses which address global and universal
concerns, to detailed case studies which speak of localized social applications of technology. The
accepted articles traverse a broad terrain, sometimes technically and other times socially oriented,
sometimes theoretical and other times practical in their perspective, and sometimes reflecting
dispassionate analysis whilst at other times suggesting interested strategies for action.
The journals in the Technology Collection are peer-reviewed, supported by rigorous, criterionreferenced article ranking and qualitative commentary processes, ensuring that only intellectual work
of significance is published. Collection Editor
