CALL FOR SUBMISSIONS
Social Sciences Directory (www.socialsciencesdirectory.com)

Social Sciences Directory is an online public database that provides
the full contents of the published record of research and scholarly
discourse in the social sciences in a freely accessible, fully
searchable, interlinked form. Our aim is to facilitate a revolution in
social sciences publishing by providing a compelling demonstration of
the value and feasibility of open-access publication.

Scientific progress requires the exchange and discussion of data and
ideas. Social Sciences Directory is a unique publication dedicated to
presenting the results of scientific research from any social sciences
discipline in an open-access environment.

Researchers, scholars, and practitioners are invited to submit
research papers and book chapters that will be evaluated on a peer-
reviewed basis. Also, we accept postgraduate dissertation theses, case
studies, conference papers and datasets that will be published free of
charge, subject to editorial approval. Contributors may also be
requested to serve as reviewers.
