Aims & Scope
Aims of the Journal
The Journal of Economics, Business & Social Sciences (JEBSS) is an international, peer-reviewed academic journal dedicated to publishing high-quality original research that advances knowledge across the fields of economics, business, management, and the social sciences. The journal aims to provide an interdisciplinary platform for scholars, researchers, practitioners, and policy-oriented analysts to examine contemporary issues, emerging trends, and critical debates shaping societies, institutions, markets, and global systems.
JEBSS seeks to encourage scholarly dialogue between disciplines that are often treated separately but are deeply interconnected in practice. By bringing together perspectives from economics, business, public policy, sociology, political science, international relations, law, communication, education, psychology, and related fields, the journal promotes a broader and more integrated understanding of social and economic realities at local, regional, and global levels.
The journal is particularly interested in contributions that combine theoretical rigor, methodological soundness, and practical relevance. It welcomes studies that not only contribute to academic literature but also offer implications for policy development, institutional improvement, business practice, and social transformation.
