Dear all,

Thank you for your support over the years and for your continued commitment to the Journal of Sociocybernetics. Your contributions, whether as authors, reviewers, or readers, have been invaluable in shaping the journal, and we appreciate your ongoing engagement.

After consultation within the RC51 board and discussions with the head of an external academic publisher, we have decided to implement some changes to the journal in 2025.

First, the journal will now operate under a continuous publication model. This means that instead of waiting for a full issue to be compiled, accepted articles will be published immediately upon completion of the peer-review process. This change will allow research to be disseminated more quickly and efficiently.

Additionally, we have decided to switch to a single-blind peer review process. This means that while reviewers will remain anonymous to authors, reviewers will now be able to see the identities of the authors. The primary reason for this change is to allow members of the journal’s editorial team—who were not able to act as reviewers under the previous system—to participate in the review process. This will significantly speed up review times while maintaining rigorous academic standards.

We believe these changes will improve the journal’s efficiency and impact, and we look forward to your continued contributions.

Best regards,
Andrew Mitchell
Editor, Journal of Sociocybernetics
