About

Salus Journal is an international peer-reviewed journal dedicated to advancing research on crucial societal issues. We publish original studies, theoretical analyses, and practice-oriented reports that deepen understanding and inform effective policy and action in areas such as national security, crime and control, justice studies, and emergency management. By promoting interdisciplinary dialogue and innovation, the journal seeks to improve responses to challenges impacting communities, institutions, and policymakers.

Dedicated to intellectual openness, Salus Journal does not endorse a single theoretical framework, methodological approach, or epistemological stance. Instead, we accept submissions from a variety of perspectives if they show scholarly rigor, methodological soundness, and relevance to the journal’s scope. This inclusive approach ensures that a range of voices and methods contribute to a richer, more nuanced academic discussion.

To promote equity and accessibility, Salus Journal does not charge author processing fees, submission costs, or publication levies. All manuscripts go through a double-blind peer review process meant to uphold the highest standards of academic integrity, ensuring that every article we publish reflects the quality and reliability expected from a scholarly publication.
