ASN Research Bulletin
Aims & Scope
The Research Bulletin was created in 2020 as a platform for reflection on the unfolding crisis precipitated by the Covid-19 pandemic and beyond. The aim of the ASN Research Bulletin is to generate a regular forum for debate and critical reflection among progressive forces across the South, based on empirical, historical and theoretical analysis. The Bulletin is an online publication with short interventions of political or theoretical nature, with contributions ranging between 2,000-3,000 words. The Bulletin began as a monthly publication and today is published every two months. In line with the ASN’s tri-continental focus and reach, each issue of the Bulletin brings together three contributions from Africa, Asia, Latin America/Caribbean focused on a relevant theme. The thematic focus of each issue reflects current and urgent social questions which lend themselves to comparative analysis and/or learning across various social and political terrains of the Global South.
