Volume: 9 Issue: 2

Our journal aims to give place to the original studies in the field of social sciences and humanities, especially in the field of religious studies by giving importance that religious developments should be handled in the context of the different disciplines of theology. The Artuklu Academy aiming to contribute to the conduct of the academic writing activity under the ethical rules has a publication policy taking into consideration the religious, philosophical, historical and socio-cultural context. In this context, it takes precedence of the publication of original works, which are dealt with from an analytical point of view.

In this respect, Artuklu Academy, published twice a year, gives place to original compilation and translation articles as well as research notes, book presentation / critique, thesis analysis and evaluation papers on scientific meetings.
