TJPSD Policy
POLICY of Tanzanian Journal of Population Studies and Development
Population Studies and Research Centre (PSRC)
University of Dar es Salaam
Upon submission of an accepted manuscript (post-review) the author is asked to submit a signed statement formally declaring that publication of the article by TJPSD would not contravene any copyright or other contractual agreements relevant to the article or the research upon which it is based. This requires that the article is not already published, nor in press, nor under consideration for any other publication where acceptance and publication is anticipated. It also requires that all copyright protocols to works cited, used, paraphrased and quoted have been duly observed by the author(s) appearing within the manuscript to be published by TJPSD.
- POLICY
TJPSD is devoted to articles and research information on Tanzania and East Africa primarily, the global South and elsewhere in general. Our subject is to explain what takes place in our social, personal, legal, political, natural, economic, fertility, mortality, bioethical, migration and natural and human made environments, why and how; achievements and challenges in research and development efforts and possible problem-solving alternatives. We are particularly interested in work done which critiques, challenges, corrects or jettisons the flaws recognised in standard, conventional, fashionable assumptions and frameworks for addressing enduring concerns and matters arising on the African continent and global in general.
TJPSD is not bound by narrow confines of disciplines. We welcome articles on themes and topics covering the broad spectrum of social sciences and humanities, including geography, history, economics, education, development studies, planning, social administration, literature, statistics, philosophy, cultural studies, religious studies, and law, to mention just a few. People of different ideological standpoints have the opportunity to argue their positions and cases, and we do welcome such healthy debates without taking part, to allow and promote complete academic freedom.
