Journal of Cultural Analytics

Aims & Scope

The Journal of Cultural Analytics has challenged disciplinary boundaries and served as the foundational publishing venue for a major intellectual movement at the intersection of the humanities, social sciences, and computer science. “Cultural Analytics” combines the very best of these areas of inquiry... We agree with and re-assert the journal’s original mission to publish peer-reviewed articles that combine computational insight and grounding in a particular humanistic field. We highlight that the articles we are most interested in will craft thought-provoking and original arguments about how culture works at significantly larger scales than traditional research. We seek articles that clarify the academic conversations into which a contribution intervenes. We assert that theoretical sophistication and methodological innovation are not enough on their own: we are interested in how computational methods combined with cultural artifacts create and contribute to new knowledge and diverse perspectives.

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.
