AIMS AND SCOPE

The e-journal Katkı, launched in 2015, is one of the collective works of the Social Research Foundation. Adopting a critical approach, our journal continues to offer valuable insights while gathering the authors and the readers  within specified themes.

Katkı aims at offering with interdisciplinary works a holistic perspective to the contemporary social sciences in which social reality is disintegrating into sub-categories with sharp boundaries.  For this purpose, the articles proposed in this journal are integrated works treating social reality in all its aspects, i.e. historical, economic, political, as well as cultural including ecology and gender equality. We also try to makespace for and give priority to the research works conducted by graduate students.

The scope of Katkı, as is evident from its aims, is so comprehensive that it extends to historical, social, economic and cultural facts, hence the interdisciplinary works are privileged. The articles fulfilling scientific criteria are taken under review according to the theme specified (though there may be off-topic articles). The articles submitted for publication are screened for plagiarism, peer-reviewed by more than one referee and subject to editorial board approval in order to be published. The online journal Katkı is an open access, peer-reviewed journal and issued twice a year (April and October), except the special issues.
