Call for Submissions: Social Sciences Directory


Call for Submissions: Social Sciences Directory

Social Sciences Directory is an online public database that provides the full contents of the published record of research and scholarly discourse in the social sciences in a freely accessible, fully searchable, interlinked form. Our aim is to facilitate a revolution in social sciences publishing by providing a compelling demonstration of the value and feasibility of open-access publication.
Scientific progress requires the exchange and discussion of data and ideas. Social Sciences Directory is a unique publication dedicated to presenting the results of scientific research from any social sciences discipline in an open-access environment.
Researchers, scholars, and practitioners are invited to submit research papers and book chapters that will be evaluated on a peer-reviewed basis. Also, we accept postgraduate dissertation theses, case studies, conference papers and datasets that will be published free of charge, subject to editorial approval. Contributors may also be requested to serve as reviewers.
