Article Processing Charges (APC) Policy

Jurnal Sosiologi Reflektif is committed to fostering inclusive and accessible academic publishing. We believe that the advancement of knowledge should be based on scholarly merit, not financial ability. Therefore, we do not charge any fees for article submission, fast-track review, or publication.

Jurnal Sosiologi Reflektif (JSR) does not impose any charges on authors at any stage of the publication process, including manuscript submission, editorial assessment, peer review, revision, and final publication.

JSR applies no Article Processing Charges (APCs) or additional fees for submission, page publication, editorial handling, language editing, color illustrations, membership, or other publication-related services.

Since the entire publication process is free of charge, authors are not required to request fee waivers. Any future changes to this policy will be communicated in advance through the journal's official website.

Editorial evaluations, peer review procedures, and publication decisions remain independent of financial considerations, including author fees or waiver arrangements. All decisions are based solely on scholarly quality, research integrity, and the suitability of submissions for the journal's academic scope.

This policy reflects JSR's commitment to transparent publication fees and independent editorial decision-making, consistent with the relevant principles of the Committee on Publication Ethics (COPE).
