Why Publish With Us

Your scholarship can be a powerful agent for critical engagement and productive democratic discourse. At a time of considerable change in scholarly communication and publishing, our book imprints are committed to challenging the status quo for research communities and influencing public life. In collaboration with faculty, librarians, authors, and students, we are committed to producing and disseminating interdisciplinary inquiry that seeks to educate within and beyond the classroom.
