JOURNAL CONCEPT 

International Journal of Social Sciences is an international, peer-reviewed, open-access journal which publishes high-quality articles on teaching and learning in the interdisciplinary field of social sciences.  In addition to its focus on original research papers, the International Journal of Social Sciences welcomes other contributions including research notes, essays, reports about debates and developments, country studies, conference reports, case studies or lesson reports, reviews and review essays. 

International Journal of Social Sciences was founded in order to offer the disciplines in the field of social sciences a representative scholarly publication. The journal represents a sophisticated image that is characterised by its theory and research orientation, interdisciplinary approach, internationalism and originality as well as by a rigorous anonymous peer review. 

International Journal of Social Sciences is a theory and research oriented journal of social sciences and related disciplines and fields. Theoretical discussions on education, teaching and learning and related empirical research, whether qualitative or quantitative, are its centre of interest. Of course, scholarly perspectives on practices of teaching and learning and the discussion of policies, empirical results, and research methods are included. 

International Journal of Social Sciences promotes the dialogue among the disciplines of social science between them and the society. It is committed to the ideas of cooperation and interdisciplinary research and communication. Therefore, the editors of the International Journal of Social Sciences prefer topics which are relevant for more than one specialist discipline of social sciences or social education. 

The editors prefer contributions that stimulate and enrich the scholarly discourse with their originality and innovativeness, develop new concepts, apply unconventional research methods or transcend borders of conventional discourses. Papers submitted to the International Journal of Social Sciences are entered into a rigorous double-blind peer-review process, normally read by at least two editors, assessed for suitability and then reviewed by two independent, anonymous expert referees. The editors’ decision will be final. The editors reserve the right to decline articles if they are judged as inconsistent with the editorial policy.
