Academic Journals
We provide through-the-line management and publishing services for accredited and non-accredited academic journals. Our services are deadline-driven and meet all the demands of the accreditation bodies. We provide services to the following journals:
Acta Academica
Acta Academica is dedicated to scholarship in the humanities. The journal publishes articles of an academic nature that examine society, culture and politics past and present from a critical social theory perspective. The journal also promotes scholarly work that examines how the humanities in the 21st century respond to the double imperative of theorising the world and changing it. We seek to contribute especially to the fields of postcolonial, development, cultural, African and gender studies that link to current themes and processes on the continent and especially to Southern Africa, without abandoning the global context and the shared perspectives of committed scholarship elsewhere. Acta Academica appears twice a year.
Acta Structilia
Acta Structilia is a South African accredited journal for independently adjudicated research articles on any topic in the field of the physical and development sciences. Each peer refereed article is indicated as such in the journal. The editorial staff considers articles in English and Afrikaans, written from any responsible point of view on subjects in any applicable field of scholarship, i.e. architecture, urban and regional planning, quantity surveying, construction management and project management, building economy, engineering and property or community development. Acta Structilia is published biannually by the University of the Free State. The journal is forwarded to all relevant research units and universities, Southern African research libraries, selected research institutions and libraries abroad, and to subscribers. Views and opinions expressed in this journal are those of the author(s). Publication thereof does not indicate that the Editorial Staff or the University of the Free State accept responsibility for it.
Acta Theologica
Acta Theologica is an accredited, South African journal publishing independently reviewed research articles on broad Christian-theological and religion topics, aimed at a national and international academic audience/readership. The Editorial Board accepts and considers for possible publication articles in English and Afrikaans, written from a responsible point of view on subjects in a relevant field of study within the Christian-theology science.
Acta Theologica appears bi-annually. Occasional monographs or longer contributions are published in a concurrent series of Supplementa.
Communitas
Communitas is a nationally-accredited academic journal publishing scientific articles in the context of Community Communication, Information Impact and related disciplines. The journal aims to promote a better understanding of communication-related issues which affect developing societies, including Southern African communities.
Journal for Juridical Science
The Journal for Juridical Science is accredited by the Department of Higher Education (DHET) and the International Bibliography of the Social Sciences (IBSS). It is a national journal that publishes original research contributions in law in Afrikaans and English. Multidisciplinary and interdisciplinary contributions, which bridge the gap between legal scholarship and other pertinent academic principles, are also welcomed.
Journal for Translation Studies in Africa
JTSA promotes the scholarly study of translational phenomena in the widest sense of the word, including intralingual, interlingual and intersemiotic translation, and values interpreting and translation equally. It welcomes interdisciplinary research, including but not limited to interpreting studies, multimodality and multimedia studies, development studies, media studies, cultural studies, political science, sociology and history. Contributions can be theoretical, empirical or applied.
Perspectives in Education
Perspectives in Education (PiE) is a fully open access journal, which means that all articles are freely available on the internet immediately upon publication. PiE is also a professional, peer-reviewed journal that encourages the submission of previously unpublished articles on contemporary educational issues. As a journal that represents a variety of cross-disciplinary interests, both theoretical and practical, it seeks to stimulate debate on a wide range of topics. PiE invites manuscripts employing innovative qualitative and quantitative methods and approaches including (but not limited to), ethnographic observation and interviewing, grounded theory, life history, case study, curriculum analysis and critique, policy studies, ethno-methodology, social and educational critique, phenomenology, deconstruction, and genealogy.
