The International Journal on Multicultural Societies (IJMS) is a scholarly
and professional journal, published by UNESCO. It provides a platform for
international, interdisciplinary and policy-related social science research
in the fields of migration, multiculturalism, and minority rights.

Established by UNESCO's social sciences research and policy division in
1998, it aims at improving the linkages between academic communities in
various regions and across different social science disciplines. One of its
particular features is to promote the policy-relevance of social science
research. 

Each issue is devoted to a coherent thematic debate on a key issue in the
field of migration and multiculturalism.

In line with the profile of the Journal, articles should be appealing and
accessible to those not specialised in their particular subjects. Excessive
technicality, jargon and mehodological protocol are to be avoided in favour
of direct, clear language. Controversial ideas or doctrines should, as far
as possible, be discussed in a positive manner, and in such a way as to
avoid the imputation of ulterior motives to those who hold different views.

Texts should not contain passages likely to cause offence to Member States
of UNESCO and should not impair the spirit of international understanding
and cooperation. 

All articles published in the IJMS are refereed in external peer-review.
