Pragmatics is the peer-reviewed quarterly journal of the International Pragmatics Association (IPrA), which was established in 1986 to represent the field of linguistic pragmatics, broadly conceived as the interdisciplinary (cognitive, social, cultural) science of language use. Its goal is to reflect the diversity of topics, applications, methods and approaches available within this wide field, and thus to contribute to IPrA’s foundational aim of searching for coherence across different perspectives and of bridging any gaps between the field’s practitioners, whether their background is linguistic, anthropological, sociological, psychological, computational, etc.
The journal encourages new ideas or new perspectives on existing research. It also welcomes research that employs diverse methodologies, including quantitative, qualitative, mixed-methods, and interdisciplinary approaches, to generate new knowledge and insights in the field of social sciences.
In addition to this, PRAGMATICS also publishes articles on extended areas of social science, such as environmental studies, sustainability, gender studies, social justice, human rights, and other emerging research areas that contribute to a deeper understanding of social phenomena and their implications for individuals and societies.
