General Call for Papers

The International Journal of Technology Management & Sustainable Development (TMSD) is a peer-reviewed multidisciplinary journal dedicated to publishing high quality, original and research-based papers addressing policy issues arising from the relationship between technology and development. In its aim to respond to the growing awareness of the need to understand sustainable development in terms of its underlying dynamics, TMSD draws on a whole niche area of issues in the relationship between emerging knowledge markets, technological management and sustainable development, and seeks to promote discussion of these in the context of globalisation trends, environmental sustainability and the challenge of world poverty.

The main objectives of the journal are:

  • To provide expert and interdisciplinary insight into the technology dimension of international development;
  • To advance contemporary knowledge about the empirical and theoretical aspects of technology management and sustainable development;
  • To provide robust analyses of the problems and prospects developing countries face in their capacity building efforts to harness resources for sustainable use and achieve the overarching goals of poverty reduction and sustainable development;
  • To look into strategies for technological capability development and assess their the impact on the economy, the society and the environment, in the light of contemporary experience;
  • To offer academics, policy-makers and planners, international development agencies and representatives of business and industry and non-governmental organisations a multi-disciplinary forum for debating and exploring contemporary issues in resource management and development.

The journal's major areas of focus are:

  • Science and Technology (S&T) and Research and Development (R&D) strategies;
  • Innovation systems;
  • Issues in technology transfer;
  • Skill development, knowledge management and capacity building;
  • Socio-economic and cultural modes underlying the organisation and management of production;
  • Environmental sustainability, including climate change vulnerability, management of biodiversity, bio-safety, sustainable energy and sustainable use of natural resources;
  • Globalization trends and the implications of these for technology transfer, north-south links and sustainable development.

In both its objectives and orientation, the Journal is intended to present complex issues of development and policy in ways that are intelligible to a wide readership cutting across disciplines without, however, having to lose the rigour and weight of analysis. The journal would be of particular interest to those involved in academic research, policy making, environmental management and planning in developing countries.

The journal welcomes general Articles, two perspective pieces and two case studies maximum per issue. Perspective pieces offer viewpoints and cutting-edge knowledge of experts in the field who are not necessarily academics; they can be policymakers, practitioners, community leaders and others. They are relatively short in length, between 2500 to 3000 words, focusing the readers’ attention on the latest developments in the field with topics that may relate to sustainability, technology management and business practices.

Case study articles illustrate technology management and sustainable development in practice, these can be based on any part of the economy including industry, civil society, academia and government. The purpose of Case Studies is to exemplify how technology management and sustainability work in real life. These texts should be between 2000-2500 words. All of the texts submitted undergo an editorial review, where the editorial team makes the final decision on publication. Practitioner and policy-oriented articles are not peer reviewed, contributions that present primary research data are therefore excluded.

Perspective and case study articles are submitted using the normal electronic submission system of the journal, the title page of the article should clearly specify the following:

'Submitted as case study article' or 'Submitted as perspective piece'
