Digital and Sociohumanities Reviews is an interdisciplinary, peer-reviewed academic journal dedicated to advancing critical, empirical, and theoretical scholarship on the intersections between digital phenomena and the social sciences. Its scope spans all social science fields, including sociology, anthropology, political science, communication studies, public policy, science and technology studies (STS), economics, geography, and cultural studies, so long as submissions engage substantively with digital issues. The journal welcomes analyses of platforms, digital governance, datafication, digital labor, algorithmic systems, AI, digital citizenship, online communities, and broader sociotechnical transformations relevant to social science audiences.
Since its establishment, the journal seeks to become a catalyst for broadening and deepening digital scholarship across disciplines, serving as an invaluable resource for those who research or teach in this area. Digital studies emerge from diverse traditions and methods across the social sciences and are inherently interdisciplinary in orientation.
The journal’s commitment to the development of digital social science entails that, in all its policies and practices, it actively reflects and engages the diversity of digital experiences, sociotechnical contexts, and global conditions. This includes attention to intersectional inequalities, varied cultural and political environments, differentiated access to digital infrastructures, and the multiple forms that digital life takes across the world. Promoting diverse perspectives, methodologies, and voices within digital scholarship, and within the social sciences more broadly, is one of the journal’s core objectives.
