Aims, scope and focus
Humaniora is published by Universitas Gadjah Mada. By OpenAlex counts of its recent articles, its largest topics are Cultural and Religious Practices in Indonesia, Linguistics and Language Analysis and Asian Studies and History, together about 27% of its articles. (generated from OpenAlex topic counts and CAS ranking data)
Humaniora focuses on the publication of articles that transcend disciplines and appeal to a diverse readership, advancing the study of humanities from the perspective of Indonesian or Indonesia-related culture. These are articles discussing norms, values, worldviews and symbolic meanings that strengthen critical approaches, increase the quality of critique, or innovate methodologies in the investigation of Indonesian humanities. Submitted articles may originate from a diverse range of fields—anthropology, history, archaeology, tourism, media studies, cultural linguistics, and ethnographic literature—but we expect them to be presented within the context of Indonesian culture and focus on the development of a critical understanding of Indonesia’s rich and diverse culture. Only original research articles and book reviews are accepted.
