The aim of Risk Management is to encourage discussion and debate on issues that arise from conventional and emerging perspectives on risk, crisis management and resilience. Risk Management publishes papers that address the range of traditional issues within risk and crisis management but also encourages multi-disciplinary perspectives on the ways in which these approaches are evolving and can be refined, refreshed and reinterpreted in light of contemporary challenges. The Journal actively seeks to publish papers that move beyond the narrow disciplinary-bounded, engineering and financial frameworks of risk, and that reflect the inter-disciplinary, boundary-less and inter-connected nature of the processes around risk, crisis and disaster.

Risks (ISSN 2227-9091) is an international, peer-reviewed scholarly open access journal of research and studies on insurance and financial risk management. It publishes reviews, regular research papers, and communications; there is no restriction on the length of the papers. Our aim is to encourage scientists to publish their experimental and theoretical research in as much detail as possible. Full experimental and/or methodical details must be provided for research articles.

The South African Journal of Accounting Research (SAJAR) publishes peer-reviewed original research papers, notes and commentaries that address issues relevant to accounting academics and professional accountants in Southern Africa and elsewhere. This includes areas of interest in the study and practice in financial accounting, auditing, taxation, financial management, management accounting, finance, ethics and information systems. Research papers should be analytical and make a contribution to knowledge in the field. They may be empirically based (including survey and case study methods) or review and theoretically based. Notes and commentaries should meet all the criteria for good quality research, however their interest and topicality may compensate for the research problem being less rigorously pursued. Notes and commentaries would typically be shorter than research papers.

To provide a balanced presentation contributions are welcomed from the fields mentioned above, and from related areas, such as environmental accounting, corporate law, corporate governance, and accounting education. These fields may be approached from a wide variety of perspectives such as the behavioural, technological, institutional, organisational, regulatory, societal, educational, or environmental. Manuscripts that pass the initial screening will be sent for evaluation based on the double blind peer-review procedure.

Surveys in Operations Research and Management Science is published twice a year in journal format, following on from the renowned Handbooks in Operations Research and Management Science series.The journal provides state-of-the-art surveys in operations research and management science. These surveys enable educators, researchers and students to obtain an overview of subjects of current interest as well as important recent developments in established areas.What makes a good survey?The following is a list of characteristics we feel that an ideal SORMSsubmission should satisfy.1. Choice of topic:A survey topic can be both on theory and applications of OR/MS and can be of several types. For example, a survey can focus on• Results that are considered standards by experts in the community but which not have been documented in textbooks. • Standard results which have been, in some way, streamlined; for example new proof techniques leading to more elegant derivations of known results. • New developments in methodology or new application areas (hot topics).Accepted SORMS submissions should be of significant interest to the OR/MS community. The associated literature should be of sufficient significance and, from an OR perspective, originality to warrant a survey in our journal. In particular, a topic should be sufficiently broad. Surveys focusing on the work of a single author or single group of authors may be possible, but will be considered with extra care.2. Choice of audience and writing: The readership of SORMS will be broad, ranging from graduate students to senior researchers, and from OR/MS professionals to applied mathematicians. An ideal SORMS survey should be appealing to a wide enough subset of this audience.A survey paper is not written in the same way as a research paper. Technical details that are not crucial should be addressed on a sufficiently high level, readers interested in these can be referred to particular papers. Examples of good survey papers can be found in the Handbook series. Other relevant guidelines are:• A good survey does not only focus on the work of the author but provides an appropriate broader context. • It takes more effort to write a short survey than a long survey. • A good survey should have intrinsic added value, in the sense that the sum should be stronger than its parts. For example, it may provide new structure, point out connections not noticed before, or a new context for old results. • It helps if a survey is written by an expert that masters the subject enough to provide newcomers a well guided tour through a new area.
