Our purpose is to promote the consideration of issues of individuals and their communities. SDI is committed to the advancement of social, cultural, political, and economic theory, policy and practice (and their inter-relationship) within a global context. Domestic social issues are appropriate provided they encompass such a perspective. Manuscripts addressing developmental perspectives and research on international social justice are welcome, including lifespan, gender and racial issues, the impact of policies, practices, comparative health/mental heath, poverty, income maintenance, and movements such as global faminism, human rights, and peace. Manuscripts Guidelines 1. Scholarly articles should be 12-15 pages in length. 2. All pages must be typewritten, double spaced including references. 3. An abstract of 60 words or less must accompany all submissions except book reviews. 4. SDI follows the use of nonsexist language. Any materials deviating significantly will be returned to the author for revision. 5. Four copies must be submitted. 6.
