About the Journal
Upsurge is a cross-institutional, open-access, blind-reviewed academic journal for university students writing in political economy and related fields. We publish research outputs as well as letters, perspectives, proceedings from seminars, talks and public lectures, book reviews and literature reviews. We accept submissions on a rolling basis for immediate online publication and collation in a regular print schedule.
Authors do not need to be studying political economy, though only submissions in adjacent fields will be considered, including
- economic sociology and anthropology,
- intersections of political economy with other fields,
- heterodox economics,
- history of economics/economic history,
- politics and political philosophy,
- international relations.
Current Issue
Upsurge publishes pieces online as they become ready for publication under a continuous publication model, then periodically collated into print issues within a yearly volume. Since these articles have not yet been ordered within a print issue, it is not possible to provide page numbers for forthcoming articles, however line numbers are printed.
