Dear all,
Politics of the Low Countries (PLC) is now looking for PhD Reviews to be published in the upcoming issues. We welcome proposals on PhD dissertations from Belgium, the Netherlands or Luxembourg in all areas covered by PLC. The final publication is twofold:
- PhD summary: Long summary of the thesis written and authored by the PhD student (ca. 1000 words)
- PhD review: Critical review of the PhD thesis written and authored by one reviewer (ca. 500 words) focusing on the strengths and weaknesses of the thesis and its contribution to the literature
A PhD Review proposal should include the following sections:
- Details of the PhD thesis that must have been successfully defended in 2021, 2022 or 2023 in Belgium, Luxembourg, or the Netherlands : title and abstract (max 200 words).
- Details of the PhD holder: basic contact details, affiliation, a brief academic profile (150 words) and basic details of the PhD project (supervisor(s), timeframe, funding).
- Details of one PhD reviewer (must hold a PhD): basic contact details, affiliation, a brief academic profile (150 words) and relation to the PhD candidate (e.g. member of the PhD committee is accepted, but not the supervisor). The suggested reviewer must have accepted to write the review. PLC editorial board will contact the reviewer upon proposal acceptance.
Please submit your proposal via email to Rebecca Gebauer, PLC’s editorial assistant, at politicslc@boomdenhaag.nlmailto:politicslc@boomdenhaag.nl by 10 July 2023. Please put “PLC PhD Review proposal” in the subject line. PLC Editorial board will come back to you to signify your proposal’s acceptance. For inclusion in the next PLC issue, the PhD summary and PhD review will have to be submitted by 15 September 2023 at the latest. After this date, PhD review proposals can still be submitted and will be treated on a rolling basis.
Best wishes,
Maurits Meijers
