Manuscripts submitted for consideration by the Journal must follow the style given below. The manuscripts should not be submitted simultaneously to any other publication, nor may they have been previously published elsewhere, in English. However, articles that are published previously in another language but updated or improved can be submitted. For such articles, the author(s) will be responsible for seeking the required permission for copyright.
Please note that All Azimuth only publishes original research articles. It does not publish book reviews or other review articles except by commission. We look forward to receiving submissions that offer analytical answers to research questions found in the literature. We are particularly interested in novel theorizing and conceptual articles, not to mention articles that use novel methods or seek to introduce a database or other scholarly repository that can benefit the discipline. We do not publish descriptive or historical research. Policy-oriented articles are welcome but must provide their insights through an appropriate analytical framework mindful to showcase the necessary theoretical, conceptual, and methodological heft as needed. All publications must take great care to explain their novelty and contribution to their relevant field.
Data Policy:
Artificial Intelligence (AI) Policy:
All Azimuth recognizes the growing role of artificial intelligence (AI), including large language models (LLMs) and other generative or assistive tools, in the research and writing process. AI-driven technologies can support authors by enhancing clarity, facilitating literature exploration, assisting with organization, or accelerating aspects of scholarly work.
As the flagship journal of the Global South, we believe that AI can help scholars overcome the language barriers they often encounter and enable them to present their ideas with greater clarity, thereby fostering a more inclusive and democratic academic publishing environment.
However, AI cannot replace the human creativity, critical judgment, and ethical responsibility that lie at the core of rigorous academic research.
The following outlines our AI policy for authors:
Tools that provide limited assistance, such as grammar correction, language polishing, or structural suggestions, are considered assistive AI. Their use does not require explicit disclosure. However, authors remain fully responsible for the accuracy, originality, and integrity of their submission.
Tools capable of producing content, including text, references, images, code, or data, are considered generative AI. Any use of generative AI must be clearly disclosed at submission. Authors must identify which tool or model was used, the version number if applicable, and the purpose of its use. This disclosure should appear in the Methods or Acknowledgments section.
Authors using AI tools must ensure full human oversight throughout the research and writing process. Specifically, authors are responsible for:
