Aims & Scope

African And Global Issues Quarterly (AGIQ) is a double-blind review and open-access journal with a focus on publishing original research articles, scientific and theoretical research, conceptual and empirical works, case studies, comparative studies, fieldwork reports, and reviews that touch around the thematic field of core African emerging issues within the context of global interaction. The JAGIQ would encourage submission of articles across the sub-discipline of Political Science, International Relations, Security Studies, Economics, Geography, History and Diplomatic Studies, Sociology, Psychology, Peace and Conflict Studies, and History. The journal publishes two issues per year, appearing in April and October. Proposals for special issues are welcomed, especially those addressing pressing African and global challenges, interdisciplinary perspectives and emerging debates aligned with the journal’s scope. Issues Manuscript submissions would be on a rolling basis, and peer reviewed articles  reflecting tabular forms of responses to reviewer comments and resubmitted to AGIQ would be published frequently three times a year  (April, August and December).
