Aims & scope
JoLA is the academic Journal of the European Council of Landscape Architecture Schools (ECLAS), established in 2006. It is published three times a year. JoLA aims to support, stimulate, and extend scholarly debate in Landscape Architecture and related fields. It also gives space to the reflective practitioner and to design research. The journal welcomes articles addressing any aspect of Landscape Architecture, to cultivate the diverse identity of the discipline.
JoLA is internationally oriented and seeks to both draw in and contribute to global perspectives through its four key sections: the ‘Articles’ section features both academic scholarship and research related to professional practice; the ‘Under the Sky’ section fosters research based on critical analysis and interpretation of built projects; the ‘Thinking Eye’ section presents research based on thoughtful experimentation in visual methodologies and media; the ‘Review’ section presents critical reflection on recent literature, conferences and/or exhibitions relevant to Landscape Architecture.
Peer-Review Statement
All manuscript submissions are subject to initial appraisal by the Editor, and, if found suitable for further consideration, to peer review by independent, anonymous expert referees. All peer review is double blind. Book, conference, and exhibition reviews are subject to editorial review.

Instructions to Authors
 This journal uses ScholarOne Manuscripts (previously Manuscript Central) to peer review manuscript submissions. Please read the guide for ScholarOne authors before making a submission. Complete guidelines for preparing and submitting your manuscript to this journal are provided below. JoLA is the journal of the European Council of Landscape Architecture Schools (ECLAS). It is compiled by an editorial team of academics appointed by the council. JoLA is published three times a year and features regular theme issues.
JoLA’s aim is to support, stimulate and extend scholarly debate in landscape architecture, cultivating the diverse identity of the discipline by welcoming contributions addressing any aspect of landscape architecture. It fosters research methodologies specific to landscape architecture and aspires to expand the range of communication modes for research. In particular, JoLA addresses the interface between academic research and professional practice. As the ECLAS journal it has a European base, but is internationally oriented and seeks to both draw in and contribute to global perspectives.
JoLA accepts original articles, previously unpublished and not being considered for publication elsewhere. On receipt of a submission, editors make an initial decision on its suitability for publication. Manuscripts for each of the three sections Articles, Thinking Eye and Under the Sky are then blind peer reviewed by at least two referees. Book reviews are subject to editorial review. Prospective authors are welcome to discuss their proposals with the editors before making a formal submission. All successful submissions are copy-edited and proofread in consultation with editors and authors before publication.
This journal is compliant with the Research Councils UK OA policy. Please see the licence options and embargo periods here.
Manuscript submission
All submissions should be made online at the JoLA ScholarOne Manuscripts website: http://mc.manuscriptcentral.com/rjla . New users should first create an account.
Manuscript preparation for Articles
Structure
Manuscripts for the Articles section should be prepared according to the following structure: Title; author name(s), affiliation with postal and e-mail addresses, telephone and fax numbers; biography/ies (max. 100 words); abstract; keywords; main text; acknowledgements; references; endnotes; numbered figure; plate titles and captions.
Do not incorporate figures, images, plates, etc. in the text – please refer to the Illustrations section below. Save and submit the article as RTF (Rich Text Format).
Text layout
Use double spacing, 3-cm margins and left justification. Number all pages consecutively top right. Use Times New Roman 11 pt.
Biography
Indicate your educational and professional background, position, current affiliation and research interests in a maximum of 100 words.
Abstract
Outline the aims, scope and conclusions of the article in a single unreferenced paragraph of up to 150 words.
Keywords
Provide up to 5 keywords for citation and library search purposes.
Main text
Articles are typically no longer than 6,000 words including endnotes and references. In case of themed issues, the main text is no longer than 4,000 words including endnotes and references.
Ensure that each new paragraph is clearly indicated. Limit hierarchies to first-order headings (bold) and second-order subheadings (italics).
Manuscript preparation for Under the Sky
Deciphering projects is as intimately linked to conception and design as reading is to writing. This scholarly critique section aims to develop critical reading of projects as a basis for landscape architecture research. Critique is intended as a way to stimulate debate and to make a contribution to theory building in landscape architecture. Critical reading of any built landscape architecture project – under the sky – may be submitted, on any scale from territory to garden, anywhere in the world. The selected project(s) should not simply be described as a finished product, but also interpreted in light of site transformations and the original commission. It should be discussed in the context of the wider current debates in landscape architecture and related to similar projects. Different stakeholders’ (commissioning clients, users, and the like) and designers’ points of view should be discussed.
Graphic and visual discourse is considered a key element in the design (i.e., more than mere illustration). The manuscript should be no longer than 5,000 words including notes and references to keep a good balance between text and visuals. In case of themed issues, the manuscript should be no longer than 3,000 words including endnotes and references. Submissions should include background information on the project following the data sheet to be found at the ScholarOne Manuscripts website. Critical reading of completed work is considered as equal to, and edited as stringently as, any other research essay or academic paper.
Contributions should abide by the guidelines on manuscript preparation for the Article section (see above).
Manuscript preparation for Thinking Eye
Thinking Eye aims to support critical investigations into visual concepts, methodologies and media, and to promote scholarly discourse on the visual culture of landscape architecture by publishing experiments and methodological innovation, including practices and ideas drawn from the fine and other arts and related design and environmental disciplines that have demonstrable relevance for contemporary landscape architecture theory and practice.
Submissions are peer-reviewed, and ‘critical’ rather than merely illustrative. They comprise predominantly visual material, with text in a supporting role. Successful submissions will demonstrate contextual understanding, rigour, and original ways of visually documenting, conceiving, evaluating or changing perceptions of landscape, by addressing an issue pertinent to contemporary theory or practice.
Visual material will normally be accompanied by a concise text, not exceeding 500 words, to provide an introduction and a substantive context for and guide to the visual essay. Each figure, image or other visual component may in addition have a title and/or caption of up to 100 words. Existing and archival images may be used, although authors must submit evidence of appropriate permissions with their essays (see Copyrights and Illustrations sections for further information).
Order of manuscript text: title; author name(s), affiliation with postal and e-mail addresses and telephone numbers; biography/ies (max. 100 words); introductory text; numbered figure; image titles and captions; references and acknowledgements.
Do not incorporate the figures, images, visual components, etc. in the text; see Illustrations for instructions on the submission of visual components.
Manuscript preparation for book and conference reviews and notes
Book reviews do not generally exceed 1,500 words in length. They should include a description of the book’s contents and the reviewer’s critical assessment, but should go beyond this to use the book under review as a starting point to discuss the topics that it raises. Book reviews must be headed with the following information, in this order:
Author(s)/Editor(s)
Title of book
Location: Publisher, Year of publication
Number of pages, Number of colour and b/w illustrations
Price in Euros (cloth or paper)
Review by reviewer name
Affiliation
Conference reviews are generally up to 700 words in length. They must be preceded with the following sequential information:
Conference title
Venue
Date of conference
Review by reviewer’s name
Affiliation
Style
JoLA uses standard British English spelling; please refer to the Oxford English Dictionary (2nd ed.).
On questions of style, refer to JoLA’s house style guide first. If the question is not addressed in our style guide, please refer to the 2012 edition of the Oxford Style Manual. In general:
Acronyms and Abbreviations: Spell out acronyms and abbreviations on their first mention, followed by the acronym or abbreviation in parentheses:
Economic and Social Research Council (ESRC)
Thereafter, the acronym or abbreviation may be used.
Conference titles: Set conference titles in initial caps, roman, no quotation marks.
Dashes: The em-dash (closed up) is used to express a more pronounced break in sentence structure than commas and to draw more attention to parentheticals. The en-dash (closed up) is used to denote elision in elements that form a range (e.g. numbers).
Footnotes: Use endnotes rather than footnotes. The text cue is set as a numeral in square brackets.
Italics: Use italics for titles and subtitles of books, newspapers, magazines, reviews, and other periodicals; and for the titles of paintings, sculptures, and other works of art, and for foreign or Latinate terms (e.g., élan, in situ).
Numbers: Use words for numbers below 100 unless used with a unit of measure.
Punctuation: Punctuation should follow the Oxford Style Manual.
Single quotation mark: Single ‘quotation marks’ are used for quotations, instead of “double quotation marks”, which are used for a highlighted word or phrase within a quotation: ‘The idea of “landscape architecture as art” had emerged from the teachings and practice of educators such as Peter Walker….’
Serial comma: Do not use the serial comma.
Titles in foreign language: Where foreign language titles occur, place the English translation in square brackets following the title.
Any other matters of style should be resolved by consulting the Oxford Style Manual.
References
Every author-date citation in the text, endnotes, or captions should have a corresponding entry in the references at the end of the paper. When quoting directly from a work, include the appropriate page number (Doe 1982: 27). Use the convention set out in the Oxford Style Manual, 2003 edition , (author-date) – also referred to as Harvard style – in the main text for quotations, including page numbers (Girot 2005: 24). Add a, b ... after the date when referring to works by the same author published in the same year.
Every entry in the references, endnotes, or captions should have a corresponding citation in the text.
Use endnotes rather than footnotes. Do not use AutoFormat for footnotes/endnotes. The cue should appear in the text as a number in square brackets. Example: As much as Le Nouveau Jardin Pittoresque was opposed to the artificial style paysager, it equally condemned the return of the formal geometrical garden, especially in France. [1]
List full references alphabetically by author's last name at the end of the paper. Please ensure their accuracy, completeness and consistency.
