Journal of Southern Sociological Studies is a peer-reviewed, open-access scholarly journal published by Universitas Negeri Surabaya. The journal is dedicated to sociological knowledge by publishing original research articles and critical review essays that address a wide range of  social issues. These issues may arise from southern country, such us Asian, African, or other countries.

We welcome both theoretical and empirical contributions that deepen understanding of social dynamics. Our scope includes, but is not limited to, the following sociological topics : urban and rural communities, democracy, religion, conflict, gender, family and relationships, social inclusion, culture, digital society, social development, social movements, economy, organizations, education, and epistemological perspectives unique to southern contexts.

We also accept new theoretical approaches, or new approaches in understanding social problems in the perspective of southern countries, or new methodological approaches in studying these social issues. Of course, all of that is within the framework of sociological studies.
