Contemporary Voice of Dalit (CVD)
Journal Descriptions
Contemporary Voice of Dalit is a respected international academic journal published tri‑annually by SAGE Publications that offers a rigorous scholarly platform for research on caste, inequality, marginalization and social justice, particularly concerning Dalit communities. Founded in 2008 as Voice of Dalit and later repositioned under its current title, the journal emphasizes interdisciplinary inquiry and critical perspectives on social structures that produce and perpetuate caste oppression. Through original research articles, theoretical essays, book reviews and commentaries, it explores how Dalit identities, experiences, rights and agency intersect with broader social, political and economic processes. The journal encourages contributions from sociology, anthropology, political science, cultural studies and allied disciplines that interrogate caste hierarchies, discrimination, inequalities and struggles for emancipation and inclusion. With a stringent double‑blind peer review process, Contemporary Voice of Dalit maintains high scholarly standards while providing space for both theoretical innovations and empirical investigations. Its editorial board includes eminent scholars from universities around the world, reflecting the journal’s global outlook and commitment to diversity of perspectives. The journal contributes significantly to the field of Dalit studies by advancing critical debates, contextualizing caste within contemporary social realities and promoting research that influences both academic understanding and public discourse on social justice and human rights.
