Critique & ReplicationVol 33:1March 2010 |
This issue of ANS continues a long-standing tradition of periodically calling for manuscripts that are specifically developed to challenge, update or affirm what has been previously published in ANS.

We are seeking manuscripts for this issue that address the issues of world-wide migration, and the effect of migration, or related concepts such as dislocation or diaspora, on health care and the health of populations. Submissions can focus on scholarly work that addresses the migration of nurses and other health care workers, or the migration of general populations of people. Related concepts concerning the displacement or relocation of people from their homeland.

Manuscripts for this issue should focus on philosophies, methods, or outcomes of scholarly work based on emancipatory perspectives, or those perspectives that challenge the status quo and injustices sustained by a prevailing social order.

Nursing EssentialsVol 33:4December 2010 |
For this issue of ANS, we are turning to the broad and very basic concept of essentials – that which is elemental, at the heart of the discipline, and of critical value to those for whom we care. We seek manuscripts related to essentials: empirical studies that affirm the essential processes and outcomes of nursing care; advances in theoretical frameworks clarifying that which is essential to nursing; ethical dialogues revealing fundamental practice concerns; other philosophic frameworks that provide an essential basis for nursing practice; or fresh perspectives on the historical roots and/or contemporary politics of the essentials of nursing. We also welcome submissions that demonstrate links among the essentials of nursing and contemporary issues of race, class, and gender. |

Theory-Oriented PracticeVol 33:4March 2011 |
For this issue of ANS, we seek manuscripts that provide cutting-edge evidence of the value of theory in practice, and the value of practice for the development of nursing knowledge. We will consider manuscripts that reflect any of the broad types of scholarship that contribute to the development of nursing knowledge, such as philosophic analysis, all forms of empirical research, historical and political analysis, theory development, and reports of innovative methodologic approaches that hold promise for bridging the theory/practice gap. |
