Article Processing Charges (APC)

The Journal of Social Science Perspectives is an open access publication, making all accepted articles freely accessible to readers worldwide without any subscription requirements. To support essential editorial operations—including peer review management, online hosting, archiving, and indexing—the journal levies an Article Processing Charge (APC) upon acceptance of a manuscript.

• National Authors (Pakistan): PKR 25000

• International Authors: USD 130

This charge is non-refundable and is only payable after the manuscript has successfully completed the peer review process and has been formally accepted for publication. There are no fees for manuscript submission.

The APC ensures the sustainability of the journal while maintaining high-quality editorial and publishing standards, all while keeping research content freely available to a global readership.
