Call for Papers

The Journal of Development and Social Sciences (JDSS) invites original research articles for its six issues published each year. Manuscripts are accepted throughout the year and are processed through the journal's editorial and double-blind peer-review system.

JDSS aims to process and publish accepted manuscripts efficiently. The average period from submission to publication is approximately 60 days, although the actual timeframe may vary depending on peer review, revisions, editorial decisions, and production requirements.

Important Note

Authors are encouraged to submit manuscripts by the recommended deadlines to facilitate consideration for the corresponding issue. Submission by a deadline does not guarantee publication in that issue, as every manuscript must successfully complete the editorial assessment, peer-review, revision, and final acceptance process.

JDSS may also publish accepted articles online ahead of the scheduled issue where applicable.
