Founded in July 2016, the journal Systèmes alimentaires - Food Systems (SAFS) is a peer-reviewed scholarly journal that continues the work of the “Agrifood Systems” (“Systèmes agroalimentaires”) series of the journal Économies et Sociétés started in 1944 by François Perroux, a professor at the Collège de France, under the auspices of the Institute of Applied Economics (Isea, Institut de science économique appliquée ), and the Institute of Applied Science, Mathematics and Economics (Isméa, Institut des sciences, mathématiques et économiques appliquées). This series, which published thirty-seven issues from 1962 to 2016, was referenced until 2016 in the bibliographic databases “Econlit” and “IBSS.”
SAFS is indexed by EBSCO, ProQuest, and Hal. It is ranked as category four in the “Strategy” discipline of the National Foundation for Management Education (FNEGE, 2022), and it was placed in the “Agricultural, Environmental, and Energy Economics” category in 2020 by Section 37 of France’s National Center for Scientific Research (CNRS).
The journal Systèmes alimentaires - Food Systems welcomes authors from various scientific disciplines (economics, management, sociology, etc.) interested in a common empirical object, the agrifood system, with a view to advances in knowledge and informed decision-making. This journal, published by Éditions Classiques Garnier as part of the “Economy, Management and Society” division, is published digitally and in print.
The journal Systèmes alimentaires / Food Systems, published by Classiques Garnier, Paris, is continuing the series “Agrifood systems” of the Économies et Sociétés journal until 2015. As part of of the Economics, Management and Societies collection, it is published in electronic and paper format. It hosts authors from different scientific disciplines (economics, management, sociology, anthropology, history, geography, etc.), interested in a common empirical object, the food system, with the prospect of advancing knowledge and help the decision. Different types of texts are published, with modalities of internal (members of the editorial board–EB) and external review under anonymity in double blind (members of the reading committee) according to the academic standard sought by the journal:
- Scientific articles (5,000 to 6,000 words, including a review of the literature, a method of analysis and an empirical treatment or a theoretical proposal). Academic standards must be respected.
- Expertises (2,000 to 3,000 words, expertise / point of view on a sector, a company, a public policy issue, etc., which does not require a thorough review of the literature but includes some essential references on the subject).
- Reading notes on a recent or republished scientific work (2 to 4 pages).
- Reports of seminars and symposia (2 to 4 pages).
- Thematic files: the EB can invite editors (from 1 to 3 scientists belonging to French and foreign institutions) to form a dossier on a specific theme related to the interests of the journal. The thematic dossier contains 3 to 5 articles or assessments evaluated according to the above modalities and a general introduction prepared by the invited editors, revised only by the EB. In order to renew themes and teams, guest editors change from one issue to another. A invited publisher cannot be again before 3 years.
- Invited authors: The EB has the possibility to solicit authors recognized by the international scientific community for a contribution in the form of theoretical and / or empirical synthesis of their works (2,500 to 5,000 words), revised only by the EB.
- The discussants: The EB also has the possibility to publish the comments which it would have received (under reserve that they respect the academic standards and do not exceed 1,000 words) on the publications of the journal, with right of reply of the author(s).
Proposals will be sent to the secretariat of the journal (revue-essa@supagro.fr) specifying the formula chosen. Once papers are accepted, authors will receive full editorial details. The editorial board has the final say about each publication.
