About the Journal

Journal of Language and Gender (JLG) is a peer-reviewed, open-access academic journal published by the Nohan Institute. The journal is dedicated to disseminating high-quality research and innovative scholarly work that explores the complex relationship between language, gender, and communication in diverse social, cultural, and institutional contexts. JLG serves as a platform for linguists, gender scholars, educators, and researchers to share insights, theoretical advancements, and empirical findings that contribute to a deeper understanding of how language constructs, negotiates, and represents gender identities and relations.

JLG welcomes original empirical studies, conceptual and theoretical papers, literature reviews, case studies, and applied research reports that examine topics such as discourse and gender, feminist linguistics, gender representation in media, language and power, gendered communication in education and workplaces, and inclusive language practices. The journal particularly encourages submissions that highlight intersectional, critical, and cross-cultural perspectives on language and gender studies.

To ensure academic excellence and publication integrity, JLG implements a blind peer-review process, where each manuscript is independently evaluated by at least two experts in relevant fields. Submitted manuscripts must be original, unpublished, and not under review in any other journal. Articles may be written in Indonesian or English.

JLG adopts an open-access policy under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike 4.0 (CC BY-SA 4.0) license, ensuring that all published content is freely accessible to readers worldwide and can be shared or adapted with appropriate attribution. This policy reflects the journal’s commitment to promoting the broad dissemination of academic knowledge for both national and international audiences.

The journal is published three times a year (February, June, and August). Through its emphasis on linguistic inquiry, gender analysis, and interdisciplinary perspectives, JLG aims to become a leading platform for the exchange of transformative ideas and the advancement of scholarship in the field of language and gender studies.
