Propose a Special Issue
How it works
Proposals are submitted by email to the JHHR Editorial Office. Following receipt, a proposal is reviewed by the Editor-in-Chief and Advisory Board — typically within 2–4 weeks — before a call is opened. See the Propose a Special Issue page for requirements and how to submit a proposal.
Editorial independence
Guest-edited Special Issues follow the same peer-review and editorial-policy standards as regular JHHR submissions — see Editorial Policies.
