Many thanks to the National and Kapodistrian University of Athens for hosting JCEPS via the OJS (Open Journals System) over the last couple of years. The JCEPS website based in Greece will continue to be available for retrieving past issues of JCEPS (up to issue 24(1) of April 2026) but NOT for submitting new articles or sets of Comments. 

The Open Journal System (OJS) for JCEPS will be transferred in late 2026 or early 2027 to the University of Alberta in Canada. This will be notified via this website (www.jceps.com).

WWW.JCEPS.COM will continue to function for a while, both as an archive of past Issues of JCEPS and for submission of articles and reviews, until the changeover to the OJS system in late 2026 or early 2027.

Many thanks to all those who have submitted articles to JCEPS over the last 25 years, and to the reviewers, who have submitted well over 1,000 Reviews / Sets of Comments during that time. Dave Hill, July 2026

JCEPS seeks and publishes articles that critique global, national, neo-liberal, neo-conservative, neo-Fascist, New Labour, Third Way, postmodernist and other analyses of policy developments, as well as those that attempt to report on, analyse and develop Socialist/ Marxist transformative policy for schooling and education from a number of Radical Left perspectives, including Freirean, Communist, Marxist, anti-racist, anti-sexist, anti-homophobic perpsectives. JCEPS addresses issues of social class, ‘race’, gender, sexual orientation, disability and capital/ism; critical pedagogies, new public managerialism and academic/ non-academic labour, and empowerment/ disempowerment.
