Journal of Global Perspectives on Society, Culture, and Development

About Journal

The Journal of Global Perspectives on Society, Culture, and Development (JGPSCD) (3067-8358) is an interdisciplinary academic journal that explores the dynamics of social, cultural, and developmental issues from a global perspective. It provides a platform for scholarly research, fostering dialogue between different societies, cultures, and development paradigms. Our goal is to highlight research that not only expands the academic understanding of social issues but also contributes to practical solutions that address global challenges.

The journal covers a wide range of topics, focusing on the intersection of cultural practices, societal structures, and development processes. As the world becomes increasingly interconnected, the need for a deeper understanding of global social trends, cultural diversity, and sustainable development practices has never been more urgent. JGPSCD addresses these needs by presenting research that sheds light on the complexities of globalization and its impact on various societies.

Core Areas of Focus

Our journal seeks to publish research in the following core areas:

• Social and Cultural Studies
  This encompasses studies that explore the role of culture, tradition, and social norms in shaping societies and communities. We focus on research that investigates social identities, cultural practices, intercultural relations, and the impact of globalization on indigenous cultures.
• Globalization and Development
  This theme looks at the multifaceted effects of globalization on social structures, economies, and cultures. Research in this area critically examines issues like economic inequality, international trade, technology transfer, and social mobility, with a focus on both developed and developing nations.
• Human Rights and Social Justice
  This area is dedicated to exploring the legal, political, and social aspects of human rights. We welcome articles that discuss the challenges to human rights, justice, and equity, with particular attention to marginalized and vulnerable communities across the globe.
• Sustainability and Environmental Development
  As global environmental concerns become increasingly urgent, we publish research that links social and cultural development with sustainable practices. Topics may include climate change, conservation efforts, sustainable agriculture, urban development, and renewable energy technologies.
• Migration and Diaspora Studies
  Global mobility has led to a rapidly increasing diasporic population. We are particularly interested in research that explores the social, cultural, and political implications of migration, refugee studies, and the integration of migrant populations into host societies.
• Social Policy and Governance
  This area covers the examination of policies, governance frameworks, and their impact on societal development. Research can include public administration, policy evaluation, comparative politics, and the role of international organizations in shaping global development.

Our Mission

Our mission is to provide a scholarly platform that encourages critical engagement with the global issues shaping society and culture. We aim to foster an academic community that connects researchers, policymakers, and practitioners committed to addressing the challenges of modern development, social justice, and intercultural understanding.

Through its inclusive approach, JGPSCD aspires to contribute to academic and practical advancements by providing evidence-based insights, theoretical perspectives, and policy recommendations that can influence both local and global agendas. By publishing quality research, we support the growth of knowledge and critical thought that will foster more equitable, just, and sustainable societies.

Interdisciplinary Approach

The interdisciplinary nature of the journal allows for a broad range of theoretical and methodological approaches. We encourage submissions that draw from diverse academic disciplines including sociology, anthropology, economics, political science, history, and geography. This broad scope is intentional, as it reflects the multifaceted nature of the issues we address.

We believe that interdisciplinary research is key to understanding and addressing the complexities of global challenges. Therefore, the journal promotes dialogue between scholars from diverse academic backgrounds and encourages innovative approaches to research that cut across traditional disciplinary boundaries.

Target Audience

The journal is aimed at scholars, practitioners, and policymakers interested in the intersections of society, culture, and development. Our target audience includes:

• Academic researchers in social sciences, cultural studies, development studies, and related fields
• Practitioners in development organizations, NGOs, and international agencies
• Policymakers and government officials involved in social development and cultural affairs
• Students pursuing advanced degrees in social sciences, humanities, and global studies
• Activists and advocates focused on human rights, social justice, and sustainability

JGPSCD aims to provide these stakeholders with cutting-edge research that can influence practice, policy, and the broader discourse on global social development.

Global Perspective, Local Insights

At JGPSCD, we are committed to presenting research that offers insights into both global trends and local realities. Our journal is unique in that it gives voice to underrepresented regions and communities, ensuring that a diversity of perspectives is represented. We publish research that not only tackles global issues but also delves into the local manifestations of these challenges.

Understanding the dynamics of society and culture requires a nuanced, context-specific approach. Therefore, we prioritize research that examines how global issues like poverty, migration, and climate change are experienced and responded to at the local level. This emphasis on local insights ensures that our research is relevant and applicable to real-world situations.

Call for Papers

We encourage submissions from scholars, researchers, and professionals engaged in critical studies of social, cultural, and developmental issues. We are particularly interested in research that provides:

• Fresh perspectives on contemporary issues facing societies and cultures worldwide
• Evidence-based approaches to understanding the impact of development programs and policies
• In-depth case studies that provide insight into local contexts and global connections
• Research that fosters critical discussions on inequality, human rights, and social justice

Authors are invited to submit original research, theoretical papers, and case studies that address these and other important issues related to society, culture, and global development. The journal is committed to maintaining the highest standards of academic rigor, and we look forward to receiving contributions that challenge current thinking and provide innovative solutions.
