About the Journal:

The International Journal of Transversal Inquiry and Global Synthesis (IJTIGS) is conceived as a rigorously peer-reviewed scholarly platform dedicated to advancing integrative, cross-disciplinary, and boundary-spanning research. In an era characterized by epistemic fragmentation and hyper-specialization, the journal responds to an urgent intellectual need: the systematic synthesis of knowledge across domains, methodologies, and geographies. It foregrounds transversal inquiry, a mode of investigation that traverses disciplinary silos while preserving methodological integrity and global synthesis, understood as the aggregation and contextualization of diverse knowledge systems into coherent, actionable insights.

 

The journal positions itself at the intersection of theory-building and applied scholarship. It encourages contributions that do not merely juxtapose disciplines but actively engage in conceptual integration, methodological innovation, and epistemological reflection. Emphasis is placed on work that demonstrates how complex global challenges such as digital transformation, sustainability transitions, financial inclusion, governance innovation, and socio-technical change, can be better understood through integrative analytical lenses.

 

IJTIGS adopts a pluralistic orientation toward research paradigms, welcoming qualitative, quantitative, mixed-method, and computational approaches. It particularly values systematic reviews, meta-analyses, conceptual frameworks, and interdisciplinary empirical studies that generate cumulative knowledge. The journal aspires to become a reference point for scholars, practitioners, and policy thinkers seeking to move beyond reductionist explanations toward holistic and globally relevant scholarship.

Aim and Scope:

The primary aim of the International Journal of Transversal Inquiry and Global Synthesis is to cultivate high-impact research that bridges disciplinary boundaries and synthesizes fragmented knowledge into theoretically robust and practically meaningful contributions. The journal seeks to advance scholarship that is integrative in design, global in perspective, and transformative in implication. The scope of the journal is intentionally broad yet conceptually anchored in the principles of transversal inquiry and synthesis. It includes, but is not limited to, the following domains:

 

Interdisciplinary and Transdisciplinary Research
Studies that integrate theories, methods, and perspectives across fields such as management, economics, technology, social sciences, environmental studies, and public policy.

 

Digital and Technological Transformations
Research on emerging technologies (e.g., artificial intelligence, blockchain, fintech, immersive systems) examined through multi-dimensional frameworks encompassing organizational, societal, and ethical implications.

 

Sustainability and Global Development
Analyses addressing climate change, circular economy, sustainable agriculture, ESG frameworks, and inclusive development, particularly through cross-sectoral and cross-regional comparisons.

 

Knowledge Integration and Synthesis Methodologies
Systematic literature reviews, bibliometric analyses, meta-syntheses, and theory-building exercises that consolidate fragmented research streams into cohesive frameworks.

 

Socio-Economic and Institutional Dynamics
Investigations into governance, institutional innovation, financial systems, and policy ecosystems using integrative and comparative approaches.

 

Behavioral and Organizational Complexity
Research exploring human, organizational, and network-level dynamics through multi-theoretical lenses, including hybrid models that combine psychological, technological, and economic perspectives.

 

Global South and Emerging Economy Perspectives
Contextually grounded studies that contribute to theory extension and refinement by incorporating insights from underrepresented regions and diverse socio-economic settings.

The journal aspires to become a reference point for scholars, practitioners, and policy thinkers seeking to move beyond reductionist explanations toward holistic and globally relevant scholarship.

The journal particularly encourages submissions that demonstrate:

  • Conceptual novelty through integration rather than incremental extension.
  • Methodological rigor aligned with interdisciplinary standards.
  • Clear articulation of theoretical, empirical, and practical contributions.
  • Global relevance with sensitivity to contextual diversity.
