The first Special Issue published by the Canadian Journal of Earth Sciences in the field of planetary sciences consists of a collection of nine papers on astromaterials, planetary geology, and Earth-based analogues. We describe the milestones that led to the development of the planetary geology and geophysics (PG&G) community in Canada over the past 5 years, which culminated in record-breaking attendance at a special session of the 2011 GAC–MAC–SEG–SGA Joint Annual Meeting held in Ottawa. The idea of a Special Issue was met with enthusiasm by delegates from coast to coast. By connecting the fields of earth and planetary sciences, the Canadian Journal of Earth Sciences pioneers a new vision for geoscience that expands the options available to Canadians who wish to publish their research at home.

This Special volume published by the Canadian Journal of Earth Sciences consists of a collection of six papers on the petrology, geochemistry, and metallogeny of igneous rocks emplaced in large igneous provinces (LIPs). The papers provide a snapshot of results presented at a Special Session of the 2017 Geological Association of Canada – Mineral Association of Canada Joint Annual Meeting held in Kingston, Ontario, by members of the vibrant geoscience community dedicated to the study of LIPs. Participants applauded the idea of a joint session on these topics and as a result, the session fostered animated discussions and new collaborations. The scope of magmatic and metallogenic studies of LIPs often precludes the type of brainstorming that took place during the meeting. This Special volume demonstrates that a robust understanding of magmatic processes represents the essential first step towards the search for mineral deposits in LIPs worldwide.

Dedication: Dr. John F. Lewry (1939–1999; see Saskatchewan Geological Survey 1999) dedicated his career to investigations of the Saskatchewan–Manitoba segment of the Trans-Hudson Orogen (THO), one of the principal Paleoproterozoic orogens associated with the assembly of Laurentia. Indeed, one can make a strong case that Lithoprobe's Trans-Hudson Orogen Transect (THOT) was designed to test the tectonic models proposed by John Lewry. He delineated the distinct tectonic provinces in the western part of the THO, predicted the presence of an Archean craton trapped within the THO, and recognized and interpreted the significance of the Pelican Thrust between the juvenile Paleoproterozoic volcanic arc complex of the western Flin Flon Domain and the Archean craton, now called the Sask craton. The research published in Lewry and Stauffer (1990), and many of his ideas, provided the framework for the design of the THOT geophysical and geological studies. John Lewry was co-leader of the THOT until he passed away in 1999 after a battle with cancer. This Special Issue of the Canadian Journal of Earth Sciences is dedicated to him.

Counselling Psychology

Over the past 30 years, the field of counselling psychology has experienced many new insights and shifting practices into counsellor education, practitioner and faculty scholarship, and larger systems including post-secondary institutions, accreditation councils, and regulatory bodies. One of the central contributions to this expanding landscape is the Scholarship of Teaching and Learning (SoTL). In this introduction to the present special issue of Canadian Journal of Counselling and Psychotherapy, the authors outline the trends and developments in SoTL and discuss current applications of SoTL to the field of counselling psychology. They highlight the importance of these applications for moving the field of counselling forward. Each of the four articles within this special issue is described briefly through the lens of its contributions to SoTL within counselling psychology.

This short introduction describes the contributions to a special issue on the music of Chen Yi, which originated in a special session on Chen’s music sponsored by the Committee on the Status of Women at the Society for Music Theory’s annual meeting in 2017. The contributions begin with a discussion by the composer, Chen Yi, of her chamber ensemble Happy Rain on a Spring Night, followed by three articles by Nancy Rao, John Roeder, and Marianne Kielian-Gilbert that offer varied approaches to analyzing her music, including Ba Ban (1999) and Ning for Pipa, Violin and Cello (2002). A brief overview of and link to an edited transcription of the question and answer period that concluded the original session is also provided.

Sociological Work

Issues related to globalization are central to most contemporary works in sociology, no matter the specialization. During the past two decades, sociologists have investigated the effects of globalization on most aspects of social life and the extent and variety of the research and literature on the subject have been widely commented upon. This special issue of the Canadian Journal of Sociology represents a modest attempt to stimulate a discussion of the relation sociology itself has with globalization. These papers examine the contemporary transformations of the organization of sociological work and the production of sociological research and discourse in the context of the growing interaction of local, national, regional, and global networks. Résumé. Les questions liées à la globalisation sont centrales dans la plupart des travaux contemporains en sociologie et ce, peu importe la branche de spécialisation. Durant les deux dernières décennies, les sociologues ont examiné les effets de la mondialisation sur la majorité des aspects de la vie sociale. Le nombre et la variété de la recherche et de la littérature sur le sujet ont été abondamment commentés. Ce numéro spécial des Cahiers canadiens de sociologie est une modeste tentative visant à susciter une discussion à propos de la relation entre la sociologie et la globalisation. Les articles de ce numéro examinent les transformations contemporaines dans l’organisation du travail sociologique, mais aussi dans la production de la recherche sociologique et de son discours dans le contexte d’une augmentation des interactions entre réseaux locaux, nationaux, régionaux et globaux.

This thematic volume arose from a desire to acknowledge the pioneering contributions to mass extinction studies made by Professor Tony Hallam over the past 50 years and includes papers from several theme sessions held at the annual meeting of the Geological Society of America held in Denver in October 2013 along with other solicited contributions. They provide both a breadth of temporal coverage and also reflect the broad spectrum of earth scientists currently involved in studying these ancient crises, ranging from palaeontologists to volcanologists to earth system modellers.
