The International Journal of Comparative and Applied Criminal Justice ( IJCACJ) publishes original, theoretically engaged, empirical or applied research in Criminal Justice and Criminology that informs scholars and policy-makers around the globe.
The IJCACJ seeks to provide a forum for rigorous, critical analyses and review of crime and justice problems globally, their causes and associated effects, and strategies for alleviation and prevention. Theoretical approaches and methodologies from related disciplines such as Sociology, Psychology, Political Science, Economics, Organization and Management studies or Health and Environmental sciences are welcome.
The IJCACJ is one of the best-known, most widely read international criminal justice journals and has included contributions from over 80 countries and five continents.
The Journal primarily publishes original research articles but also publishes reviews and commentaries on significant books or crime issues. Special issues are also published periodically to cover, in greater depth, significant themes and programs of research.
All research articles published in the Journal are appraised by the Editor-in-Chief, and, if found suitable for further consideration, are sent for anonymous peer review to independent, expert referees.
Submission is online via ScholarOne Manuscripts.
