Academic Studies Press and ISGAP are pleased to announce the launch of the Open Access *International Journal of Alterity <https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://www.academicstudiespress.com/journals/ija/__;!!KGKeukY!1jq-FS5iXBZFzO5ci9A6MDnrRTbJCG9LDf5k64qSAN1MCsG5X42o0dLK30PgLujiiS84wJ-LbfUNu8JuIcSAfDu3Rg$ >*, now open for submissions.
*The International Journal of Alterity (IJA)* is a no-fee Open Access journal dedicated to exploring the complex and often under-examined intersections that exist within the broader framework of alterity (otherness) across different social, cultural, and political contexts. Unlike other academic journals, IJA aspires to provide an interdisciplinary platform for critical scholarship that combines insights from a range of academic perspectives—including but not limited to history, sociology, political theory, philosophy, law, and cultural studies—to promote a more comprehensive and nuanced understanding of how the dynamics of otherness, difference, and exclusion manifest at local, national, and international level in the age of globalization, which has seen an alarming rise in the rejection of the other. While the journal is committed to addressing antisemitism as one important area of inquiry, it also examines how these dynamics relate to other key issues, such as power, social justice, and identity politics. By enabling scholars, policymakers, practitioners, and activists to engage with complex narratives that transcend traditional boundaries, IJA fills a critical gap in the contemporary discourse on alterity, antisemitism, and other forms of prejudice. IJA invites scholars from the social sciences and the humanities—and beyond—to submit (1) original papers and review articles; (2) research notes; (3) personal perspectives; (4) conference reports; and (5) book reviews that encourage critical reflection and enrich the academic and public debate on these matters. Contributions from policymakers, practitioners, and activists are also welcome. The deadline for papers to be included in the first issue of the journal, which will be published this fall, is *May 1, 2025*. *For more information and submission guidelines, visit our page* <https://urldefense.com/v3/__http://www.academicstudiespress.com/journals/ija/__;!!KGKeukY!1jq-FS5iXBZFzO5ci9A6MDnrRTbJCG9LDf5k64qSAN1MCsG5X42o0dLK30PgLujiiS84wJ-LbfUNu8JuIcQWnTlimA$ > *https://urldefense.com/v3/__http://www.academicstudiespress.com/journals/ija/*__;Kg!!KGKeukY!1jq-FS5iXBZFzO5ci9A6MDnrRTbJCG9LDf5k64qSAN1MCsG5X42o0dLK30PgLujiiS84wJ-LbfUNu8JuIcSxQ0cwKw$ <https://urldefense.com/v3/__http://www.academicstudiespress.com/journals/ija/__;!!KGKeukY!1jq-FS5iXBZFzO5ci9A6MDnrRTbJCG9LDf5k64qSAN1MCsG5X42o0dLK30PgLujiiS84wJ-LbfUNu8JuIcQWnTlimA$ > *Direct all questions and submissions to Daniel Stephens (alterityjour...@academicstudiespress.com <alterityjour...@academicstudiespress.com>)*
