Michael Galda Location Germany CALL FOR MANUSCRIPTSAfrican Studies: Humanities, Social Sciences & Law – Regional Perspectives GALDA VERLAG is a Berlin-based,  academic publisher specializing in African Studies. It is entirely financed by Galda + Leuchter GmbH, an international library supplier and academic bookseller established in 1985. Because our publishing is cross-subsidized by our bookselling operations (import/export), we operate free from commercial pressures, author fees, or institutional dependencies. This allows us to focus entirely on academic quality and the promotion of African scholarship in Western academic libraries and global research communities. EDITORIAL PHILOSOPHY:We believe that the best African Studies scholarship comes from scholars who are rooted in the regions they study. We are primarily interested in work by researchers based in Africa — scholars who bring firsthand knowledge of local realities, languages, and communities to their research. We seek regionally-grounded, interdisciplinary scholarship across the full breadth of the humanities, social sciences, and law. Too often, African Studies privileges continental generalizations over the rich diversity of local cultures, social structures, legal traditions, and intellectual production. Our publishing program seeks to counter this by providing a platform for African scholars to bring their voices and perspectives to international academic audiences. AREAS OF INTEREST: Humanities & Cultural Studies:- Literature, literary criticism, and African-language literatures- Film, cinema, and visual culture- Theater, performance, music, and sonic cultures- Philosophy and intellectual history- Oral traditions, folklore, and mythology- Art, aesthetics, and material culture- Cultural memory, heritage, and preservation- Religion, spirituality, and belief systems- Translation studies and multilingual literary cultures- Digital humanities and new media Social Sciences:- Political science and governance- Sociology and social organization- Anthropology and ethnography- Economics and development studies- Demography and population studies- Education and knowledge production- Gender studies and feminist scholarship- Migration, diaspora, and transnational communities- Urban and rural transformations- Environmental studies and political ecology- Peace, conflict, and security studies- Public health and medical anthropology Law & Legal Studies:- Customary and traditional law- Indigenous legal systems and practices- Legal pluralism and hybrid legal orders- Constitutional development and human rights- Land law, property rights, and resource governance- Transitional justice and reconciliation- Criminal justice and penology- International law and African institutions (AU, regional courts)- Commercial law and economic regulation- Family law and personal status- Environmental law and natural resource management- Colonial legal legacies and postcolonial legal reform- Law and society in African contexts- Comparative legal studies across African regions History:- Regional and local histories- Community histories and micro-regional developments- Colonial and postcolonial history- Resistance movements and decolonization- Labor and migration history- Trade networks and economic history- Social and economic history- Environmental history and land use- Intellectual and institutional history- Oral history and narrative traditions Languages & Linguistics:- Documentation of indigenous and minority languages- Endangered languages and revitalization- Sociolinguistics and language policy- Linguistic anthropology- Translation and preservation of oral sources- Script traditions and literacy history GEOGRAPHIC EMPHASIS:While we welcome proposals from all African regions, we have particular interest in:- Central Africa (Great Lakes region, Congo Basin)- West Africa (Sahel, coastal regions)- East Africa (Horn of Africa, Swahili coast)- Southern Africa- Understudied or marginalized regions across the continent- Comparative and cross-regional studies- Transnational and diaspora perspectives WE ARE SEEKING: We welcome submissions from scholars based in Africa and from researchers worldwide whose work is grounded in African regional realities. We particularly encourage submissions from early-career scholars at African universities and research institutions. Doctoral Dissertations:- Recently defended dissertations- Dissertations in final revision- Revised dissertations adapted for broader academic audiences Monographs:- Original research by early-career scholars- Major works by established scholars- Comparative and transnational studies- Critical editions and scholarly translations Edited Volumes & Collaborative Works:- Thematic collections with multiple contributors- Conference proceedings of high academic quality- Research outputs from collaborative projects- Multi-author studies from research teams Festschriften:- Volumes honoring distinguished African scholars- Contributions celebrating scholarly careers and impact PUBLICATION DETAILS: Book Series: "African Studies – Regional Perspectives" Languages: We publish in both French and English. Format: High-quality print editions and digital/ebook formats Distribution: Our international bookselling network ensures placement in major Western academic libraries, research institutions, and specialized bookshops worldwide. International cataloguing & WorldCat visibility. WHAT WE OFFER AUTHORS: ✓ No publication fees or author charges✓ Professional editorial support throughout the process✓ International promotion and marketing✓ Representation at African Studies conferences✓ Long-term commitment to keeping works in print✓ Ethical publishing practices✓ Passion for books OUR COMMITMENT: As a non-profit publishing project funded by our bookselling and library supply operations since 1985, we are not driven by profit margins, commercial trends, or institutional agendas. This unique model allows us to:- Prioritize scholarship by Africa-based researchers- Take risks on important but unmarketable scholarship- Support early-career scholars and emerging voices- Publish works from understudied regions and topics- Champion interdisciplinary and regionally-grounded research- Maintain high editorial standards without commercial compromise- Keep all publications permanently in print and internationally visible We are particularly committed to amplifying the work of scholars who live and work in Africa, whose research reflects deep engagement with local realities, and who are often underserved by mainstream academic publishing. SUBMISSION PROCESS: Please send your manuscript OR a brief proposal (3–5 pages) in French or English including: 1. Project abstract (short) explaining:  - Research questions and arguments  - Contribution to scholarship  - Regional focus and methodology  - Intended audience 2.

Volume 17: Academic Freedom as a Practice of Democracy At a panel during the Coalition for Action in Higher Education’s April 2025 national protest, urban and cultural studies scholar Davarian Baldwin made a rousing call for courage in the face of political and material repression in US colleges and universities: “We are the power that we have been waiting for.” Responding to this call, the 2026 volume of the AAUP’s Journal of Academic Freedom seeks to showcase work of students, educators, and activists—and of unions, scholarly associations, and other governance bodies—in fighting back against repression. The volume seeks submissions on initiatives that have been pursued, strategies that have been deployed, coalitions that have been built, and work that remains to be done in the fight for academic freedom. Submissions are due by March 9, 2026. We will consider any eligible submission relevant to the journal’s core focus on academic freedom. Topics of special interest for the volume include but are not limited to political education public outreach sanctuary campuses mutual defense compacts and other forms of coalition-building debt reveals boycott, divestment, and sanctions campaigns campus unionization protests and other forms of mass mobilization lawsuits political lobbying Check out the call for papers, submission guidelines, and editorial policy to learn more about this volume and past issues of the Journal of Academic Freedom.
