Perspectives from editors

Professor Massimo Leone,

Editor-in-Chief, Semiotica

"Publishing in Open Access through the S2O model has been a game-changer for our journal. The transition has not only expanded our readership but also improved the quality of submissions. Authors are more motivated to submit high-quality work, knowing it will reach a broader audience without access barriers. Moreover, making publicly funded research openly accessible aligns with the ethical imperative to share knowledge funded by public resources, thereby enhancing the societal impact of our work and contributing to the advancement of science and knowledge."


"The editors of the Historische Zeitschrift are very pleased about this step towards accessibility. We find it particularly important that the journal - as before - does not charge publication fees and is therefore accessible to authors regardless of their current status in the academic system."

"For the authors of Zeitschrift für Soziologie, the opportunity to have their articles freely available for download via S2O significantly enhances their global visibility. As editors, this aligns with our goal of ensuring that the high-quality research in our journal reaches a broader, international audience. We're thrilled that open access contributes to this visibility and impact!"
