International Journal of Mardin Studies (IJMS)

Aims & Scope

The International Journal of Mardin Studies (IJMS) a peer-reviewed interdisciplinary academic journal published twice per year by Mardin Artuklu University. IJMS is dedicated to exploring the critical intersections of history , technology and design . IJMS aims to be a dynamic point of connection between disciplines, perspectives and temporalities. The journal welcomes submissions that explore the intersections of: history | technology, technology | history history | design, design | history technology | design, design | technology where " | " symbolises the fluid relationships between the two sides, accommodating various prepositions such as of , for , about , through, with, in, across, and others. IJMS delves into the relationships between historical investigations, creative design practices and technological advancements. Contributions might include: Analyses of how technology reshapes historical research Studies exploring how computational techniques, virtual reconstructions and interactive media reinterpret historical contexts Research projects linking past innovations with envisioned futures Examinations of material heritage through digital fabrication and computational methods Historical perspectives on design and technological advancements. The impact of design thinking on historical and technological narratives. The role of technology in preserving, interpreting, and reshaping history. Speculative approaches to designing futures rooted in historical and technological frameworks. Critical studies on how historical processes inform contemporary design and technological practices. Studies on how algorithmic design and AI influence historical interpretation Research on the intersection of craft traditions and emerging fabrication technologies Explorations of spatial computing, AR/VR, and their role in reconstructing historical narratives Investigations into the historiography of technology and its evolving methodologies Critical analyses of media archaeology and the preservation of digital artifacts Interdisciplinary approaches bridging architectural history with parametric design and simulation Case studies on historical infrastructures and their relevance to contemporary smart cities Reflections on speculative history and counterfactual modeling in design research Ethnographic studies on the labor and knowledge embedded in historical technologies Historiographical analyses of technology’s role in shaping historical narratives Studies on how historical methodologies evolve with computational tools Examinations of archival digitization and its impact on historical research Comparative analyses of pre-digital and digital historiography Research on historical epistemologies shaped by technological advancements Investigations into how historical texts and manuscripts are reinterpreted through AI and big data Studies on the reconstruction of lost or fragmented histories using digital techniques Explorations of historiographic biases introduced by algorithmic and digital tools Examinations of ancient and medieval technological systems through computational modeling Studies on the transmission of historical knowledge through digital storytelling and interactive platforms Critical perspectives on the role of technology in shaping collective memory and cultural heritage Investigations into the role of speculative history and counterfactual scenarios in historical research Research on the intersections of oral history and digital archives Analyses of historical timelines and periodization in light of technological disruptions Explorations of how history informs contemporary debates on automation, AI, and digital ethics IJMS is an electronic (e-journal) publication adhering to international standards, featuring Turkish and English studies, and is internationally peer-reviewed. It is published twice a year, in June and December . IJMS aims to contribute to scientific and social development by evaluating and publishing original and quality research, striving to be among the sought-after journals in its field. In pursuit of its vision, IJMS adopts principles of honesty, objectivity, and transparency, adhering strictly to scientific research and ethics. IJMS has no organic affiliation with any institution or organization, and it publishes articles based on completely scientific research, with the scientific and legal responsibility for the views expressed in published works resting with the authors. IJMS will not accept article submissions after the specified deadline for each issue.
