Together with Equinox Publishers, the centre launched the first ever academic journal in the area, the Journal for Research into Freemasonry and Fraternalism,[1] an independent, international, peer-reviewed academic journal in the area of research into organized sociability in general and freemasonry in particular and as part of the former Academic Society for Research into Freemasonry and Fraternalism (ASRFF).[2] The journal's editorial offices are in University of Sheffield, UK. The Journal was established in 2009 and is published by Equinox Publishers in the UK and edited by Dr. Andreas Önnerfors (Lund University and Malmö University College in Sweden) and Dr. Rob Collis (University of Sheffield, United Kingdom). Dr. Róber Péter (University of Szeged, Hungary) is review editor.[3] Each issue contains academic research articles, reports on studies of freemasonry and book reviews on the subject.[4][5] The Journal deals with various aspects of Freemasonry and Fraternalism and associated topics such as including politics, society, culture, art, history, music and other disciplines.
