Author Fees
Jurnal Nawala Politika (JNP) is dedicated to promoting high-quality scholarly publishing while ensuring accessibility for researchers worldwide. To support the editorial process, journal management, and the maintenance of open-access publications, the journal has implemented a fully cost-free author fee policy. This means authors incur no financial charges at any stage of the publication process.
Fee Structure
Nawala Politika applies a zero-fee policy for both the submission and publication stages, ensuring that financial barriers do not hinder researchers from sharing their work. The fee details are as follows:
Article Submission Fee: Rp 0 (Free)
Authors are not charged any fee for submitting their manuscripts to Nawala Politika. This policy allows researchers from all backgrounds, including those with limited funding, to submit their work for peer review without financial constraints. The journal's commitment to free submissions fosters inclusivity and encourages diverse contributions to the field of political science.
Article Processing Charge (APC): Rp 0 (Free)
Nawala Politika does not charge any publication fees at any stage of the publication process. Authors whose manuscripts are accepted following peer review are not required to pay any fees.
Implications of the Zero-Fee Policy
The decision to eliminate both submission fees and APCs reflects the journal's commitment to:
- Accessibility: Removing financial barriers allows researchers, particularly from developing regions or underfunded institutions, to contribute to and benefit from the journal's platform.
- Open Access: By covering the costs of publication through other funding mechanisms (e.g., institutional support), the journal ensures that all published articles are freely available to readers worldwide, maximizing their impact and reach.
- Quality Maintenance: Despite the absence of author fees, Nawala Politica maintains rigorous peer-review and editorial standards to ensure the quality and credibility of published work.
