South Asia Research (SAR)

South Asia Research is a long-running, international academic journal dedicated to interdisciplinary scholarship on South Asia. Established in 1980 by researchers at the School of Oriental and African Studies (SOAS), University of London, the journal has developed into a respected outlet that publishes original research spanning social sciences, humanities, and area studies. It emphasizes rigorous peer-reviewed scholarship that explores both theoretical frameworks and empirically grounded studies on topics such as political systems, historical legacies, legal and constitutional developments, economic transformation, cultural production and identity, linguistic diversity, religion, and visual and material culture across South Asian societies. The journal’s editorial ethos reflects a commitment to diverse methodologies and critical inquiry, inviting contributions that address pressing issues facing the region from multiple disciplinary angles. South Asia Research fosters dialogue among scholars from around the world, engaging with post-colonial perspectives, transnational dynamics, and the ways in which local and global forces shape South Asian realities. Over the years it has cultivated an editorial and advisory board with international representation, enhancing its scholarly impact and relevance. Indexed in databases such as Scopus, ProQuest, EBSCO, and the Emerging Sources Citation Index, the journal continues to bridge academic knowledge and regional insight, offering a rich resource for researchers, educators, and postgraduate students interested in comprehensive analyses of South Asia.
