The article that uses critical theories/perspectives and encourages the spirit of empowerment would be more preferred.
Peer Review Process
Jurnal Jurnalisme (JJ) uses double-blind review policy, in which both the author(s)' and the reviewer(s)' identity is kept hidden until the manuscript is accepted for further editing and publication. If both reviewers agree upon the publication, the editor in chief will publish the article after revision. In case reviewers do not agree upon the acceptance of the article, final decision of publication will be in editor in chief. Each submitted manuscript is evaluated on the following:
- The originality of its contribution to the field of scholarly publishing;
- The soundness of its theory and methodology given the topic;
- The coherence of its analysis;
- Its ability to communicate to readers (grammar and style)
Normal turn-around time for screening and evaluation of manuscripts is three to four months from the date of receipt.

The journal publishes two issues in one volume a year. The issues are expected to be published in April and October of each year.
Open Access Policy
Jurnal Jurnalisme (JJ) provides immediate open access to its content on the principle that making research freely available to the public supports a greater global exchange of knowledge. We do not charge both for article submission and processing.
