OIA’s mission is to publish writing that is of interest across disciplinary boundaries. Papers may be scholarly investigations that focus on specific aspects of culture and the arts, or they may be speculative or conceptual explorations of culture-related topics. We are especially interested in articles that examine or reframe topics in new ways, or that explore connections between areas that are usually treated separately, or that offer reasoned critiques of prevailing perspectives.

OIA is an online publication, irregularly published throughout the year. The primary content of each issue is a single paper, or occasionally two or more thematically related papers.

Submissions to Open Inquiry Archive are subject to an expedited review process, which is outlined on the OIA website. Authors publishing with OIA retain rights to their work.

If you wish to submit a paper for possible publication in Open Inquiry Archive, please send the editors a short letter of inquiry. For more information, please visit our website at: http://openinquiryarchive.net/
