Nordisk judaistik / Scandinavian Jewish Studies

Nordisk judaistik/Scandinavian Jewish Studies aims at promoting Jewish studies in Scandinavia by publishing scholarly articles, surveys and documents, by reviewing recent literature, and compiling bibliographies. The journal is multidisciplinary and welcomes articles from a vast range of research fields within which Jewish themes are analysed, e.g. history, the study of religions, linguistics, theology, anthropology, social sciences and the arts. The journal focuses on Jewish studies in Scandinavia and research conducted by scholars tied to Nordic universities. The contributions are published in one of the Scandinavian languages, or in English, German or French, with an abstract in English. The journal is strictly academic and does not pursue any special religious, political or cultural policy.

The journal publishes open issues and thematic issues in co-operation with guest editors from all over the world, representing a broad span of academic disciplines and traditions relating to Jewish Studies. Articles are selected on the basis of a double blind peer-review process where two independent experts in the field review each article in a process where both the reviewer and author identities are concealed from each other.

Editors: Ruth Illman (Donner Institute) and Svante Lundgren (Lund University)
