Journal of Studies in Language, Culture and Society (JSLCS)
ISSN / E-ISSN: 2716-9189 / 2676-1750
Publisher: University of Bejaia
Editor-in-chief: Prof. Nadia Idri,
Author Guidelines for JSLCS Standards:
Our Goal: To be a leading international, multidisciplinary forum for
high-quality research. To achieve this, we require your active
partnership in building a rigorous, visible, and influential scholarly
community.
1. Core Philosophy: Quality, Originality, and International
Contribution
To be considered, your manuscript must make a clear, original, and
significant contribution to its field on an international level. We
prioritize research that engages with global scholarly conversations,
not just regional or national discussions. Ask yourself: Why would a
scholar on another continent find this paper important?
2. Abstract: Your International Showcase
The abstract is your most critical tool for attracting an
international readership.
Length & Detail: Provide a structured abstract of 300-350 words. Use
clear headings: Objective, Methodology, Results, Conclusion,
Significance/Contribution.
Content: Explicitly state the paper's novelty and its significance to
the international research community. Avoid generic statements.
Specify the gap you fill and how your findings advance the field
globally.
Language: Must be in excellent, native-level English. Consider
professional editing if needed. This is non-negotiable for
discoverability.
3. Manuscript Scope & "The Identity Challenge"
JSLCS is multidisciplinary, but your paper must have a sharp, focused
identity.
Connect to Core Themes: While we cover language, culture, and society,
your manuscript must clearly fit within one or two defined sub-fields.
Justify Broad Relevance: If your topic is regionally specific (e.g., a
case study in Algeria), the Introduction and Conclusion must
explicitly articulate its theoretical, methodological, or comparative
implications for international research.
Avoid being "a paper of everything": We will desk-reject manuscripts
that are overly broad, lack a clear theoretical framework, or do not
connect to specific scholarly debates.
4. References & Engagement with the Global Scholarly Community
Your reference list is a map of your scholarly engagement and is
crucial for our global profile.
Volume & Recency: A minimum of 25-30 high-quality references is
expected. A significant majority should be from the last 5 years,
demonstrating engagement with current discourse.
Source Quality: Prioritize references from Scopus/Web of
Science-indexed journals and reputable international academic presses
(Routledge, Springer, Palgrave, John Benjamins, etc.).
International Dialogue: Your literature review must engage with key
international scholars and seminal works in your field, not just
literature from a single region.
Style: Strict adherence to APA 7th Edition.
5. Authorship & Affiliation
International Collaboration: Research conducted by international teams
or comparing multiple contexts is highly encouraged.
Institutional Email & ORCID: All corresponding authors must provide an
institutional email address and a valid ORCID ID. This is mandatory
for submission.
Author Profiles: Authors are encouraged to maintain active, public
scholarly profiles (e.g., Google Scholar, Scopus Author ID,
institutional webpage).
6. Language and Accessibility for an International Audience
The full manuscript must be submitted in English.
To enhance accessibility, we recommend that authors of highly
regionally-focused studies consider including an extended summary
(500-600 words) in the article's appendix, detailing the context and
international relevance for non-specialists.
7. Ethical Rigor & Transparency
AI Use Disclosure: Any use of Artificial Intelligence (AI) tools in
the writing, editing, or analysis process must be transparently
declared in the methodology or acknowledgments section. Describe the
tool used and its purpose. AI cannot be listed as an author.
Plagiarism Check: All submissions will be screened. Similarity must be
below 20% (excluding references).
Ethical Compliance: Studies involving humans must include proof of
ethics approval.
Submission Checklist:

significance.
