Call for Papers

The Editorial Board of the Journal of Oriental Studies (Արևելագիտության հարցեր; JOS) invites contributions of articles, research notes, and book reviews for the upcoming open-topic volume of the journal to be published in 2025․

JOS is an interdisciplinary and interregional journal published by the Faculty of Oriental Studies, Yerevan State University. We publish research articles on diverse topics related to the fields of history, religion, linguistics, literature, archaeology, social and cultural anthropology of the Arabic Countries, Iran, Central Asia, Turkey (the Ottoman Empire), and the Caucasus as well as Armenian Genocide and Diaspora Studies.

Every article submitted to JOS has to pass a double-blind peer review process before being considered for publication. Before entering the peer review process, the submissions have to pass a first assessment round conducted by the editors aiming to determine whether the overall composition of the manuscript (topic, language, length) meets the journal’s requirements. If the article does not comply with the topics of the Journal, it is excluded from revision, and the author is being notified about it.

Contributions for publication can be submitted via the journal's website https://journals.ysu.am/index.php/j-orient-stud.

A typical article for the JOS should be between 25000-30000 symbols (including spaces). Publication languages are English and Russian.

No fee is charged to the authors for the articles to be published in our journal.

The deadline for submission of articles for Volume XVII is 1 April 2025.
