UDOM - Call for Paper,School of Humanities


The school of Humanities University of Dodoma plans to publish a second volume of its journal, the Journal  of humanities (JH) in October 2013.  This is to inform interested authors to submit papers by 15th July 2013.  

About the Journal
Journal of the Humanities (JH) is an international peer-reviewed trilingual broad-focused  Journal which aims to promote the exchange of ideas and foster interdisciplinary research in the human sciences. It publishes scholarly articles and reviews on cultures, history, anthropology, indigenous knowledge, literatures and languages, art and music, and other fields of the humanities that appeal to an international audience. Our primary goal is to generate intellectual dialogues between the traditional boundaries of knowledge and culture; we also seek to redefine, transform, and conflate such boundaries. 

Guideline to Authors
All submissions that conform to the guidelines stipulated here and are deemed of acceptable quality are blind-reviewed by specialists in the field. Every effort will be made to expedite the review process in a timely and efficient manner.

Use Italics for the titles of books, journals, newspapers, plays, films, long poems, paintings, and ships. Extensive use of italics for emphasis should be avoided.
