Cogitatio · Portugal · Est. 2024
Aims & Scope
Ocean and Society is an innovative peer-reviewed open access journal focused on the societal interactions with marine and coastal environments. As an interdisciplinary journal, Ocean and Society brings together relevant studies in the multiple areas of marine and maritime social sciences, promoting both theoretical and empirical studies whether these studies are done on a global, regional, or local level. We challenge scholars and researchers with an interest on the social, economic, administrative, cultural, and/or political relationship between society and the sea to produce material that further advances a scholarly discussion around the dynamic relationships between people and the marine environment.
