About the Journal

Journal of Scientific Culture and Research

The Journal of Scientific Culture and Research (JOSCR) is a double-blind peer-reviewed, open-access international journal dedicated to advancing interdisciplinary scholarship across the natural sciences, humanities, cultural heritage, social sciences, management, and economics.

The journal provides an academic platform for researchers, scholars, professionals, and policy thinkers whose work connects scientific inquiry with cultural, social, economic, and institutional realities. JOSCR encourages research that moves beyond disciplinary boundaries and addresses complex questions related to society, heritage, innovation, sustainability, governance, education, and human development.

At its core, the journal recognises that science, culture, management, and economics are deeply interconnected. Scientific methods help document, conserve, interpret, and communicate cultural and natural heritage, while humanistic, social, managerial, and economic perspectives help explain the wider meaning, value, impact, and sustainability of such knowledge.

JOSCR welcomes original research articles, review papers, case studies, conceptual papers, policy papers, and interdisciplinary studies that contribute to knowledge creation, critical debate, and practical solutions. The journal especially encourages submissions that combine theoretical depth with real-world relevance and contribute to academic, cultural, institutional, and societal advancement.

By bringing together diverse fields of knowledge, the Journal of Scientific Culture and Research seeks to become a meaningful platform for interdisciplinary dialogue, responsible research, and globally relevant scholarship.

Editorial Philosophy

The Journal is guided by an interdisciplinary philosophy that views the natural sciences, humanities, social sciences, management, economics, and cultural heritage as complementary ways of understanding knowledge, society, and human progress. The journal believes that scientific tools and methods such as spectroscopy, isotope analysis, geophysical prospection, computational modelling, artificial intelligence, data analytics, and digital technologies can offer valuable insights into cultural, historical, environmental, social, and economic questions.

At the same time, humanistic, ethical, managerial, and economic perspectives give scientific inquiry its wider meaning, relevance, responsibility, and societal context. JOSCR welcomes scholarship that builds intellectual bridges across disciplines and gives priority to research marked by methodological innovation, originality, academic rigour, and practical relevance, especially work that contributes to cultural understanding, heritage conservation, sustainability, policy-making, institutional development, responsible innovation, and socio-economic progress.
