Most of these journals (except those indicated) have no page charges and most give some free reprints; those that do invite authors without funding to apply for grants or waivers.
Should you know of additional journals that others of us might be interested to use, please send me the same types of data and I can add it. Pardon the lack of diacritical marks in the titles and addresses, but this HTML editor doesn't let me use them!
And while it might sound strange to publish something on an American or African topic in a Japanese journal, if they'll do it, why not?
