Based on their logical rationality, all submissions will be evaluated and the journal adheres to and ensures high quality standards through a double-blind peer-review process. The submission(s) qualifying logical accuracy in the field will be considered for publication. The journal prefers the publication of original papers, creative pieces, review articles, conceptual agendas, case studies, empirical research and state-of-the-art reviews, in addition to special issues on contemporary themes of academic interest, published occasionally. The journal comprehends this in three ways:

  • Critical, quality reviews of the internal publications of the institute by eminent experts from the outside
  • Reviews of important external publications in relevant areas by the Fellows
  • Initiating a dialogue between the authors of publications and their reviewers.

Moreover, the articles submitted by renowned scholars and interviews with outstanding intellectuals and artists add to the relevance of the journal and the general reader.
