International Journal of English and Cultural Studies (ISSN: 2575-811X; E-ISSN: 2575-8101) is an international, peer-reviewed, open access journal, published by Redfame Publishing. It is dedicated to advancing the study of the English language, Anglophone cultures, and their global intersections by publishing high-quality theoretical, applied, and empirical research that reflects the field’s diversity—particularly interdisciplinary work exploring the dynamic relationship between language and culture in Anglophone contexts.
The journal is published annually in both print and online versions. The journal accepts article submissions online or by e-mail.
Focus and Scope:
- English Language Studies: Linguistics, sociolinguistics, discourse analysis, World Englishes, history of the English language, and studies of English language acquisition in social and educational contexts
- English Language Teaching and Learning: Pedagogy, curriculum design, classroom practices, intercultural communication in ELT, learner and teacher identity, and the application of technology in English language teaching (e.g., CALL, AI-assisted learning, blended learning, digital learning platforms)
- English Literature and Literary Criticism: British, American, and global Anglophone literatures; postcolonial and diasporic writing in English; literary discourse, ideology, and cultural representation
- Cultural Studies in Anglophone Contexts:
- • Media and popular culture: film, television, music, and digital media (e.g., social media, streaming platforms), with attention to the production, circulation, and recontextualization of cultural forms in and across Anglophone and global contexts
- • Cultural identity, race, gender, and class in Anglophone contexts and transnational communities
- • Transnational reception and adaptation: studies of how Anglophone cultural products are received, interpreted, localized, or resisted in global contexts
- • Language, power, and cultural representation
