Edited by: Valérie Haas (Université Lumière Lyon 2) and Thierry Ramadier (Université de Strasbourg)
Spatial representations are often discussed as cognitive images that guide movements and, from an interactionist perspective, are structured by everyday mobilities. However, the paradigm of social representations (Moscovici, 1961/1976) applied to spatial representations (Jodelet and Milgram, 1976; Jodelet, 1982) has been the focus of some research. Applying this paradigm to space reveals... Leer más acerca de Call for papers Special issue: The social, symbolic and imaginary dimensions of spatial representationsDear PSR community,

PSR now welcomes Book Reviews as a new type of contribution to the journal, in addition to Original Articles and Commentaries.
Book Reviews should have no more than 1500 words and should not have been published elsewhere. They should include a summary of the book, of its main focus, arguments and structure, as well as a critical comment, with reference to main strengths and limitations, as appropriate.
The editor responsible for book reviews and main contact person for queries is Nikos Kalampalikis (Université de Lyon 2). Book Reviews will always be revised by at least one of the members of the editorial team before publication.
Leer más acerca de Book ReviewsDear all,
The editorial team of PSR hopes to find you all well.
The International Conferences on Social Representations, that take place every two years, are normally the moment we use at Papers on Social Representations to see you all and discuss any PSR-related changes and issues with you.
Given that due to the COVID-19 pandemic CIRS 2020 did not take place this September and was postponed to September 2021, the core editorial team of PSR recently met online and discussed some changes to the functioning and structure of the journal and team, that we would now like to share with you. All these changes still take place within the general trajectory that we have started to design as an editorial team for PSR already for some years, and which mainly aims to:
1) expand PSR’s reach and impact beyond the Anglo-Saxon world, to include also other socio-geographical and linguistic contexts, such as Latin America and non-English speaking communities generally. This has mainly been pursued by PSR now accepting original submissions in French, Spanish and Portuguese, even if these have always to be accompanied with a version of the final accepted paper in English;
2) broadening the scope and aims of PSR to engage with other social sciences and other epistemologies, conceptual frameworks and methodologies that can add to, engage with and develop the Theory of Social Representations and related concepts, empirical applications and social issues. The recent special issue (vol 28, 2019) on the relation between social representations theory and positioning theory, edited by Luk van Lagenhove (Vrije Universitei Brussel, Belgium) and Deborah Wise (University of Newcastle, Australia) is a very clear example of that;
3) Increasing the visibility and quality of the journal with a view to indexing it in relevant academic databases for increasing its dissemination and impact and of the works it publishes. PSR is already indexed in Scopus (Q4; SJR 2019=0.13) and the next goal will be to increase its impact factor.
The editorial team of PSR will soon send around an editorial further reflecting on the future of the journal, but for now we would just like to announce the following changes (also to be followed up by separate and more detailed announcements):
Please send us your comments and suggestions regarding these changes or any other issues related with PSR.
We would also like to strongly encourage you to send us proposals for special issues, such as on TSR and new methods; on articulating TSR with proposals from other disciplines; or on bringing together different approaches to understand a particular social issue, such as racism and populism.
More news to follow soon and looking forward to seeing you all in CIRS 2021 in Athens,
The Editorial Team.
