About Pakistaniaat

Launched in 2009Pakistaniaat is a refereed, multidisciplinary, and open access academic journal offering a forum for scholarly and creative engagement with various aspects of Pakistani history, culture, literature, and politics.

With a focus on humanities and social sciences, Pakistaniaat publishes one continuous volume per year and the completed submissions are added to the current volume as they move through our editorial process. The volume is closed at the end of the calendar year. In some cases, when a special issue is planned, we might publish two issues in a calendar year.

Note: Until 2012 Pakistaniaat was recognized as a Category “Y” journal by the Higher Education Commission (HEC), Pakistan. Since the change in HEC policy, Pakistaniaat is currently not included in the HEC list of foreign journals.
