> The International Journal of Islamic Architecture (IJIA) publishes
> bi-annually, peer reviewed articles on the urban design and planning,
> architecture and landscape architecture of the historic Islamic world,
> encompassing the Middle East and parts of Africa and Asia, but also
> the more recent geographies of Islam in its global dimensions. The
> main emphasis is on the detailed analysis of the practical, historical
> and theoretical aspects of architecture, with a focus on both design
> and its reception. The journal also aims to encourage dialogue and
> discussion between practitioners and scholars. Articles that bridge
> the academic-practitioner divide are highly encouraged.
>
> While the main focus is on architecture, papers in other disciplines
> that explore architecture in the context of art, history, archeology,
> anthropology, culture, spirituality, religion and economics and so
> forth are also welcome. The journal is specifically interested in
> contemporary architecture and urban design in relation to social and
> cultural history, geography, politics, aesthetics, technology and
> conservation. Spanning across cultures and disciplines, IJIA seeks to
> analyze and explain issues related to the built environment throughout
> the regions covered. The audience of this journal includes both
> practitioners and scholars. The journal will be published both online
> and in print. The first issue will be published January 2012.
