Abstract

The journal is settling in, and the production processes have been streamlined.  The third issue of Koers for 2015 will be out in two weeks, and then the process for 2016 will start.  There has been a gratifying stream of submissions which we hope to maintain, so as to satisfy the readership of Koers which has such a long and proud tradition.  More and more new authors are appearing on the scene and this is a good augury for the future.  It does remain a problem to find reviewers who are able to complete this (thankless) task for the journal.  We all know all too well that academics are snowed under with work, and that the situation is not likely to improve in the light of the growing demands and the shrinking resources allocated to universities. The pressure on academics to publish remains unremitting, and therefore I am highly appreciative of the efforts of reviewers to perform this collegial task with dedication and application.The journal is settling in, and the production processes have been streamlined.  The third issue of Koers for 2015 will be out in two weeks, and then the process for 2016 will start.  There has been a gratifying stream of submissions which we hope to maintain, so as to satisfy the readership of Koers which has such a long and proud tradition.  More and more new authors are appearing on the scene and this is a good augury for the future.  It does remain a problem to find reviewers who are able to complete this (thankless) task for the journal.  We all know all too well that academics are snowed under with work, and that the situation is not likely to improve in the light of the growing demands and the shrinking resources allocated to universities.
