Journal Descriptions

The European Journal of Social Security (EJSS) is an established quarterly scholarly journal that has been publishing since 1999, offering rigorous research on the theory, design, and outcomes of social security systems in Europe. Published by SAGE Publications, the journal provides a dedicated forum for exploring how social protection mechanisms operate across different national and transnational contexts, addressing core questions about economic security, equity, and welfare policy in an era of demographic change, labor market transformation, and fiscal pressures. EJSS welcomes original research articles, comparative analyses, theoretical discussions, and policy evaluations that enhance understanding of social security’s foundations and impacts. Topics regularly include income support programs, pensions and retirement security, unemployment and labor policies, disability and long‑term care, inequality and poverty reduction, and the interaction between social security and broader socioeconomic institutions. The journal’s interdisciplinary approach bridges public administration, sociology, economics, law, and political science, making it relevant to academics and informed practitioners alike. EJSS emphasizes the comparative analysis of social security regimes, encouraging authors to examine how welfare systems adapt to challenges such as globalization, population aging, migration, and digital transformation. By publishing evidence‑based research and critical reflections, the journal contributes to scholarly debate and informs policy decisions that affect social protection and well‑being across Europe.
