A special issue of a journal is dedicated to a specific topic or sub-topic, providing a platform for established authors or researchers, often referred to as 'Guest Editors,' to review and publish content on emerging areas of national and international significance. For many authors, being selected as Guest Editor for a special issue represents a unique and prestigious opportunity.
Emerging areas tend to garner significant attention and citations as subsequent publications frequently reference them. At IPS Intelligentsia, special issues are given priority and are published across all our journals. Guest Editors interested in proposing a special issue are encouraged to reach out to us via email.
