SAGE Publications/ The Company

The academic and professional publisher of choice
SAGE Publications is an independent international publisher of journals, books, and electronic media. Known for our commitment to quality and innovation, we are a world leader in our chosen scholarly, educational, and professional markets.
Our highest priority is to make any contact you have with SAGE—whether as a book author, a journal editor, a contributor to one of our journals, a customer, or a reader—a pleasant and rewarding experience.
SAGE’s publishing philosophy is based on three principles:
Relationships— We depend upon the experience and expertise of the authors, editors, learned societies, colleagues, and vendors with whom we work.
Vision —We focus on anticipating and delivering what our customers want.
Excellence —We are committed to quality in all that we publish and in all that we do.
Innovative ideas and approaches consistently distinguish SAGE’s publishing, across all of our programs. Our products include:

• Journals at the forefront of knowledge, contributing to the disciplines of the future, and delivered in varied electronic and print formats 
• Academic and reference books with breadth of vision and valued content
• Innovative teaching texts for college courses 
• Professional books reflecting practical approaches to new perspectives and challenges

 What sets us apart from our competitors?

• We are owned and managed by publishers, not financial investors. We take the long-term view rather than being influenced by short-term financial results or goals.
• We offer global publishing on a human scale—large enough to have the capabilities of a multinational company, but small enough for individual authors, editors, societies, and colleagues to influence our direction.
• We possess an unmatched core competence in global marketing.
