Complicity: An International Journal of Complexity and Education
Complicity: An International Journal of Complexity and Education is an international, peer-reviewed journal that publishes original articles on all aspects of education which are informed by the idea of complexity. It is currently the only journal in existence to focus specifically on the implications of complexity (in its technical, applied, philosophical, theoretical, or narrative manifestations) for education and educational research. The journal strives to serve as a forum for both theoretical and practical contributions to this comparatively recent field of educational research and to facilitate the exchange of diverse ideas and points of view related to complexity in education.
The journal title draws its inspiration from the work of Jack Cohen and Ian Stewart who point out in The collapse of chaos: Discovering simplicity in a complex world (New York: Penguin, 1994) that complicity has the same roots as the word complexity. In their explication of the term, they contrast it to simplexity—which they define in terms of deterministic systems and sets of rules that always generate identical outcomes. Simplexity thus “merely explores the space of the possible”; “complicity enlarges it” (p. 415). In this vein, Complicity: An International Journal of Complexity and Education is intended as a venue for the publication of articles that are oriented by the attitude that education is a matter of complicity—about enlarging the space of the possible, as opposed to the popular conviction that education is about replicating the existing possible.
The journal is currently published once a year, either in July or December. The inaugural issue of Complicity was published in December of 2004.

Critical Social Work
Critical Social Work offers the opportunity for constructive dialogue in the interest of achieving social justice. We recognize the historical nature of both human capability and social justice. With such recognition, we do not attempt a definitive definition of either. In part the goal of Critical Social Work is to assist us collectively in recognizing the current potentials for social justice as well as the future possibilities. Further, we recognize that a contemporary definition of social justice must deal with the issues of legal, moral, and economic obligation of both the individual and the collective.
We propose that through dialogue there exists the possibility of refining our ideas about the individual and community, clarifying the relationship between interpersonal relations and institutional structures, and identifying actions that promote both individual and community well-being. To this end Critical Social Work strives, for this is surely critical social work, that is, activity directed towards establishing essential judgments in constructing a sustaining context for conviviality.

Studies in Social Justice
Studies in Social Justice publishes articles on issues dealing with the social, cultural, economic, political, and philosophical problems associated with the struggle for social justice. This interdisciplinary journal aims to publish work that links theory to social change and the analysis of substantive issues. The journal welcomes heterodox contributions that are critical of established paradigms of inquiry.
The journal focuses on debates that move beyond conventional notions of social justice, and views social justice as a critical concept that is integral in the analysis of policy formation, rights, participation, social movements, and transformations. Social justice is analysed in the context of processes involving nationalism, social and public policy, globalization, diasporas, culture, gender, ethnicity, sexuality, welfare, poverty, war, and other social phenomena. It endeavours to cover questions and debates ranging from governance to democracy, sustainable environments, and human rights, and to introduce new work on pressing issues of social justice throughout the world.
