International Review of Scottish Studies

Since at least 1969, the University of Guelph’s Department of History in conjunction with the Canadian Association for Scottish Studies and more recently the Scottish Studies Foundation have published essays and reviews related to Scottish history and culture in the journal Scottish Tradition. In the early years, contributors to this journal included leading scholars in the field such as Ian Cowan, Marcus Merriman, Maurice Lee Jr., and Edward J. Cowan. More recently, the journal has started to implement changes to once again attract scholars of a high caliber. The most recent edition of Scottish Tradition focused on the study of Scottish Identities and the Scots Diaspora in its historical context. The editors of the Scottish Tradition and the faculty members within the The Centre for Scottish Studies at Guelph are dedicated to continuing to develop the journal in order to reach a greater academic audience while maintaining enough its traditional focus in order to provide readings that meet the interest of our primary subscribers, the members of the Scottish Studies Foundation.

In order to do this we ensure that all articles submitted to the journal are peer-reviewed. Having established a large enough network of leading scholars in a variety of fields within Scottish studies, the Centre feels confident that we can ensure the quality of the journal through this process. Furthermore, we recently changed the journal’s name to the International Review of Scottish Studies in order to make clear our standing within the academic community as the leading centre of Scottish studies outside of Scotland. Robert Stewart, of Stewart Publishing &Printing, has done a fine job over the years and continues to provide his services to the newly revised journal.
