NJES is particularly interested in topics that place different areas of English studies (e.g., linguistics, literature, teaching and learning) in dialogue.

For the general issues, NJES invites submissions from scholars with an affiliation to a Nordic institution.

NJES also publishes conference proceedings and festschrifts to honour a Nordic colleague if they can be subsumed under a special theme.
