About Academic Research Journal of Science and Technology (ARJST)
ISSN: 3048-9644 | Online | English Language Publication
Welcome to the Academic Research Journal of Science and Technology (ARJST), a leading international, peer-reviewed, and refereed monthly publication dedicated to fostering and disseminating cutting-edge scholarly research in the dynamic fields of Library Science, Science, and Technology.
At ARJST, we believe in exploring science and technology not just as isolated disciplines, but as integral socio-material phenomena. Our journal delves deep into their historical trajectories and contemporary advancements, meticulously examining the intricate production processes, the diverse forms of knowledge they generate, the specialized expertise they cultivate, the social structures they influence, and the controversies they often ignite. We are committed to providing a comprehensive platform for understanding the multifaceted nature of scientific and technological progress within society.
Recognizing the evolving landscape of academic inquiry, ARJST also places a strong emphasis on the development and refinement of Science and Technology Studies (STS) itself. We actively encourage submissions that explore the evolution of STS methodologies, novel knowledge production techniques within the field, and its critical interventions in understanding scientific and technological phenomena.
Our Vision: To be a globally recognized hub for interdisciplinary research that critically analyzes the profound impact of science and technology on human society and thought.
Our Mission: To publish high-quality, rigorously peer-reviewed research that advances the understanding of science and technology as socio-material constructs, fosters dialogue among diverse academic disciplines, and contributes to the intellectual growth of the global research community.
Scope of ARJST
ARJST is proud to welcome high-quality submissions that demonstrate robust theoretical or empirical engagement with the multidisciplinary field of Science and Technology Studies. We encourage diverse perspectives from a broad spectrum of academic disciplines, including but not limited to:
- Anthropology: Exploring the cultural and societal aspects of science and technology.
- Sociology: Analyzing the social structures, interactions, and impacts related to scientific and technological advancements.
- History: Tracing the historical development and evolution of scientific ideas, technological innovations, and their societal contexts.
- Philosophy: Investigating the foundational concepts, ethics, and epistemologies underpinning science and technology.
- Political Science: Examining the policy, governance, and power dynamics surrounding scientific and technological issues.
- Education: Researching the role of science and technology in educational systems and pedagogical approaches.
- Library and Communication Studies: Focusing on information organization, dissemination, access, and the communication of scientific and technological knowledge.
We are particularly interested in research that bridges traditional disciplinary boundaries, offering fresh insights and innovative methodologies to address complex challenges in science and technology.
