Publication Schedule

The Research Journal of Social Sciences and Policy Review (RJSSPR), published by Research Journals Online (SMC-Private) Limited, follows a biannual publication schedule to ensure the timely and consistent dissemination of high-quality research in social sciences and policy studies.

  • Issue 1: January – June
  • Issue 2: July – December

This structured schedule enables the journal to maintain academic consistency while providing a reliable platform for publishing research addressing contemporary social, economic, and policy-related challenges.

RJSSPR accepts manuscript submissions throughout the year on a rolling basis. Submissions that are not finalized in time for the upcoming issue are automatically considered for the next scheduled issue, ensuring continuity and flexibility in the publication process.

Authors who submit their manuscripts well in advance may receive priority during the editorial screening and peer review stages, which can enhance the likelihood of timely publication.

The journal also supports Online First Publication, allowing accepted manuscripts to be published online prior to their assignment to a specific issue. This ensures early access to research findings and improves visibility and citation potential.

RJSSPR is committed to maintaining a reliable publication timeline while upholding a rigorous peer-review process and high academic standards. Authors are encouraged to plan their submissions in alignment with the journal’s publication cycle to maximize the reach and impact of their research.
