The journal is open access and will publish two issues per year. One of those issues will be the proceedings of the annual postgraduate research seminars held at TU Dublin and will be published each November. The other, a themed issue published in May, will be based on a Call for Papers covering a broad scope of disciplinary approaches in fields of studies connected to Ireland and/or France. Spontaneous submissions are also welcome at any time. The journal welcomes manuscripts in English or French. Sign up to the mailing list to be kept up to date on activities.
