JAUD Team's Commitment


Our team is deeply committed to fostering diversity of expertise in our editorial process. We recognize the value of diverse perspectives in scholarly research and strive to cultivate an environment that embraces interdisciplinary approaches.

Our commitment extends beyond mere acknowledgment of diverse fields; we actively seek to integrate methodologies and insights from various disciplines. This creates a rich intellectual ecosystem where innovative ideas can flourish and cross-pollinate across traditional scholarly boundaries.



Collaborative Philosophy


Our editorial committee operates on the principle that the most impactful research emerges from collaborative thinking. We facilitate ongoing dialogue between editors from different specializations to ensure comprehensive evaluation of submissions.

This collaborative approach allows us to identify groundbreaking work that might be overlooked in more traditionally siloed review processes. We pride ourselves on recognizing the potential of research that bridges multiple fields and addresses complex problems from multiple angles.



Avoiding the "Tunnel View"

Risks of Specialization


Narrow specialization can lead to a "tunnel view," where researchers are limited by their specific expertise and miss broader implications or alternative perspectives.
Importance of Perspectives

Broad perspectives are essential for well-rounded research. By integrating diverse viewpoints, we can avoid biases and develop more nuanced understandings of complex phenomena.
