Research on Finnish Society

Aims & Scope

Finnish Journal of Social Research is an annually published peer-reviewed journal focusing on research articles on, and relevant to, Finnish society. Its scope is multi-disciplinary, covering sociology, political science, and economics, as well as the other social sciences. The articles published in the journal are to be based on high-quality data and appropriate methods, quantitative or qualitative. All published articles are double-blind peer-reviewed by at least two experts. There is an annual call for papers each spring but we also accept submissions throughout the year. Articles will be published online (advance access) once they have been accepted. Submissions are made via our electronic system. For more information, see the submission guidelines. The journal encourages submissions with a cross-national comparative or historical perspective.

A twelfth criterion — whether APC fees are clearly disclosed — is not scored here; it is left out of the total rather than counted as a failure. Publication charges appear in the metrics card above.

Based on the Think.Check.Submit framework by DOAJ, COPE & OASPA. All data from verified open sources.
