Studies in Judaism, Humanities, and the Social Sciences is an interdisciplinary peer-reviewed annual review published by Academic Studies Press. The mission of the annual is to publish original works of interest on Judaism through the "eyes" of the social sciences. Its goal is to advance the systematic, scholarly, and social scientific study of Judaism, and to provide a forum for the discussion of methodologies, theories, and conceptual approaches across the many disciplines of social science. Articles are contemporary or historical in nature and can include case studies, historical studies, articles on new theoretical developments, results of research that advance our understanding of Judaism, and works on innovations in methodology. Studies in Judaism and the Social Sciences encourages contributions from the global community of scholars. All articles in this annual review undergo peer review, based on initial editor screening and refereeing by anonymous reviewers.
