Publisher: Linköping University Electronic Press (LiU E-Press)

The International Journal of Ageing and Later Life (IJAL) serves an audience
interested in social and cultural aspects of ageing and later life
development. The title of the journal reflects an attempt to broaden the
field of ageing studies. In addition to studies on later life, IJAL also
welcomes contributions focusing on adult ageing as well as relations among
generations.

Being an international journal, IJAL acknowledges the need to understand the
cultural diversity and context dependency of ageing and later life. IJAL
accepts country- or cultural-specific studies that do not necessarily
include international comparisons as long as such contributions are
interesting and understandable for an international audience.

The Journal includes a review section, which ensures that readers are kept
in touch with new work and current debate. The books listed in Books
received are those sent to the Journal by publishers. Authors of review
papers are encouraged to contact the Book Review Editor before submission.
To assure high academic standard IJAL uses a double blind review process.
Submitted papers are read by the editors and sent to two independent
reviewers if judged to fit the scope of the journal.

In order to stimulate exchange of ideas on ageing across many parts of the
world, IJAL is available as an Open Access journal, free of charge to anyone
with Internet access.

ISSN 1652-8670

New submissions to the journal must be sent in electronic format to
IJAL@ituf.liu.se as an attached file in Word or rtf format, with a covering
email giving full contact details and position(s) held by the author(s).
