It provides a forum for the publication of innovative research dedicated to the cultures and societies of Asia and Africa, past and present. We especially welcome articles dedicated to the history, religion, languages, and literatures of these regions, but we also gladly accept articles of distinction from the social and political sciences.

The journal addresses not only the academic public, but also a wider readership with a general interest in Asian and African studies.
