Author Guidelines

Authors are invited to submit their manuscripts to Nusantara: Journal of Social Sciences & Humanities. All submissions will undergo an initial assessment by the editor to determine their suitability for the journal's aims and scope. Manuscripts deemed appropriate will proceed to the peer review process before a final decision on acceptance or rejection is made.

Before submission, authors must:

1. Obtain permission for any copyrighted materials included, such as images, documents, or datasets.
2. Ensure that all listed authors have consented to be identified as contributors.
3. Secure ethical approval if required by the study’s country regulations.

Submissions that fail to meet the journal's quality standards may be desk-rejected. Authors should ensure that their study design and research argument are well-structured and clearly articulated. The title must be concise, and the abstract should stand alone as a summary of the study. Meeting these standards increases the likelihood of a successful peer review.
