GENERAL INFORMATION

INKLUSI Journal of Disability Studies is published twice a year, in June and December. INKLUSI is published regularly to accommodate the publication of current research. We don't have any special edition or theme in each publication.

FOCUS AND SCOPE

INKLUSI: Journal of Disability Studies is a peer-reviewed academic journal that serves as a scholarly forum for critical discussions on disability as a social, cultural, political, and rights-based phenomenon. The journal aims to contribute to the development of disability studies by publishing original and rigorous scholarly works that place disability as a central focus of analysis.

INKLUSI welcomes interdisciplinary contributions to disability studies that draw on perspectives from education, sociology, law, public policy, psychology, health sciences, religious studies, and other relevant scholarly traditions. While the journal engages with these disciplinary perspectives, its scope is not limited to specific issues or academic fields. All submissions are expected to demonstrate clear theoretical grounding and to contribute meaningfully to scholarly debates on disability rights, social inclusion, accessibility, participation, and equity.
