LSS becomes sponsor of another initiative to serve young researchers: The
Lugano Summer School has become one of the first sponsors of a promising
new on-line journal, the Journal of Research Practice (JRP). The journal
covers topics that should be of interest to participants of the Summer
School; in particular, it aims to encourage inter- and transdisciplinary
research that goes beyond conventional disciplinary boundaries and is
committed to reflective practice. Moreover, JRP is committed to an
open-access philosophy of electronic publishing, a channel for distributing
and exchanging research strongly supported by the School. Everyone
interested will be able to view and download all articles published in JRP
for free (a circumstance that also makes the journal attractive to
contributing authors). This is why the Journal depends on innovative ways
of financing itself, such as sponsorships by supporting institutions. It
goes without saying that no commercial interest is involved in the School's
sponsorship. Interested? Have a look at JRP's web site (just click on JRP's
logo below). [19 FEB 2005]
