Current Issue
Amid accelerating global energy transition imperatives and intensifying climate destabilization, the reconfiguration of energy systems through equity-centered frameworks has emerged as a critical determinant of sustainable human development. Interdisciplinary Energy Judgement & Transition Studies (IEJTS, E-ISSN: 3120-3892), an international open-access journal, bridging environmental sciences, social sciences, engineering, and policy analytics. We advance rigorous scholarship to interrogate the justice dimensions of low-carbon transitions while fostering inclusive knowledge exchange among researchers, policymakers, and civil society stakeholders.
IEJTS investigates the multidimensional nexus between energy judgement paradigms and decarbonization trajectories, prioritizing submissions that address:
I. Theoretical Innovations:
Epistemological frameworks for energy judgement, distributive-procedural-recognitive justice dynamics, and decolonial critiques of transition governance.
II. Socio-Technical Systems:
Equity implications of clean energy technologies, carbon-negative technologies, and smart infrastructure deployment.
III. Structural Inequalities:
Energy poverty alleviation strategies, labor rights in extractive/transition industries, and gendered/racialized impacts of energy policies.
IV. Governance & Sovereignty:
Subnational-to-global climate accountability mechanisms, energy sovereignty discourses, and transnational equity-oriented cooperation frameworks.
V. Participatory Transitions:
Community-led energy democratization experiments, inclusive project co-design methodologies, and art-based engagement for climate action.
VI. Systemic Transformations:
Multi-scalar energy coupling analyses, just transition policy modeling, and resilience-oriented energy system architectures.
