The American Journal of Islamic Social Sciences (AJISS)
The American Journal of Islamic Social Sciences (AJISS) is AMSS’s and the International Institute of Islamic Thought’s (IIIT) flagship quarterly refereed journal which has been published jointly since 1984. AJISS is a channel through which articles by Muslim intellectuals examine the issues and concerns that shape the current debate on Islam, Muslim life, and society. This highly reputed journal, circulated in over fifty countries, serves as a reference by scholars from Western academia and the Muslim world. The journal is listed in such academic indexes as the International Bibliography of the Social Sciences, ProQuest Dissertations & Theses, PQDT, (formerly U.M.I.), Religion Index One, Public Affairs Information Service, and Sociological Abstracts. AJISS includes articles, book reviews, conference reports, and abstracts of doctoral dissertations, by Muslim and non-Muslim scholars that highlight issues of Islamic thought and Muslim society. The book review section has become one of the journal’s most popular sections. Due to the quality of its reviews, AJISS receives “first-time” published books for review from such notable publishing companies as Brill, Oxford University Press, Princeton University Press, and Harvard Press. Some of the scholars on AJISS’ distinguished international advisory board are Dr. John L. Esposito (Georgetown University), Dr. Akbar Ahmed (American University), and Dr. Seyyed Hossein Nasr (George Washington University), Dr. Khaled Blankenship (Temple University), Dr. Louis J.
