As the Irish Studies “journal of record” based in Canada, the CJIS is interested in publishing any new work of importance dealing with all aspects related to the Life of Ireland, taking a distinct interest in the works that contain a Canadian dimension.
One of the top priorities involves publishing top-rated, cutting-edge scholarly research. They are also very serious about the requirements to review every new book that relates to Irish Studies and publishing writings that are of “general” interest. CJIS is focused on remaining true to traditions that relate to Irish Studies, which has remained interdisciplinary in this organization. It focuses on a wide readership, which includes students from Ireland, who do not form a part of this academic community.
The CJIS is regarded as the scholarly publication (official) for the CJIS. This scholarly publication was founded in the year 1974 and has been edited currently at the Concordia University in Montreal at the Irish Studies School in Canada. It focuses specifically on the “Irish experience” in Canada, along with the other Diaspora countries. It promotes various methodological and critical perspectives along with welcoming inter and multi-disciplinary approaches, including explorations of material, spatial, and visual culture.
