Call for Editor in Chief, European Journal of Development Research
EADI is seeking a new Editor in Chief from May 1, 2013 for the European Journal of Development Research. Deadline for applications: 15 March 2013.

The European Journal of Development Research is a multi-disciplinary journal that seeks to broaden our understanding of the processes that advance or impede human development, from political, economic, sociological or anthropological perspectives. It provides an inter-disciplinary platform for original research and review articles, reflecting topical discussions in International Development Studies in the broad sense. The journal is professionally managed by an excellent team of editors drawn from the academic and practitioner community for fixed periods, and supported by a journal administrator.
