The journal strives toward a better general understanding of the world by addressing it through the lens of Sindhi Studies. It privileges submissions that, in addition to Sindh and Sindhis, tackle topics like colonialism and nationalism, integration and marginalization, devotion and institutionalization, vernacularism and cosmopolitanism, and many others. JOSS also approaches Sindhi Studies as a field to address broader questions about society and the human condition, both in the past and present. The journal’s humanistic and interpretive approach aims to draw submissions into a single comparative forum to analyze, discuss, and understand the many intricate and multilayered contexts that constitute the Sindh region and the lives of its people. JOSS aims to shed interdisciplinary light on the “Sindhi World.” It accepts submissions from all disciplines but prioritizes perspectives from the humanities and interpretive social sciences (e.g., anthropology, history, sociology, geography, literature, art history, and visual studies). The journal accepts submissions that address the people of Sindh, regardless of their current geographic location. However, Sindhis live in other parts of Pakistan as well as in India and across the globe.
