About JHES
Journal of Humanities Education and Society (JHES) (Print ISSN: -; Online ISSN: - ) is a peer-reviewed academic journal published by Hong Kong Information Education Publishing Company Limited. JHES publishes four issues each year in both Chinese and English.
Scope and Topics
Journal of Humanities Education and Society is committed to centering humanistic cultivation and social relations in scholarly inquiry and advancing interdisciplinary research on humanities education across national, linguistic, disciplinary and media boundaries. Distinct from discipline-isolated educational research or purely textual cultural commentary, the journal focuses on humanistic pedagogical practices, subject formation of learners and educators, intellectual traditions of humanistic education, institutional logics of schooling and public cultural transmission, as well as their interactions with policy systems, community organisations, media publics and socio-historical contexts. The journal welcomes theoretical exploration, case studies, comparative research, ethnographic fieldwork, archival inquiry, digital humanities and empirical analysis, and encourages dialogue between global educational paradigms and local educational practices. Beyond conventional research on curriculum, teaching and moral education, it pays particular attention to emerging research objects, including public humanities education, community education, digital literacy education, ecological humanities education, inclusive education for marginalised groups, as well as new educational scenarios and social actors shaped by transmedia learning and AI-enabled educational practice. The journal aims to provide an open and rigorous scholarly platform for researchers worldwide, to nurture theoretical innovation and knowledge accumulation in humanities education and educational sociology, and to deepen understanding and interpretation of the formative function of humanistic education within diverse social and cultural contexts.
