  • International Journal on Humanistic Ideology

    The International Journal on Humanistic Ideology (IJHI) is a scholarly journal devoted to the study of the humanities and social sciences and the nature and origin of humanistic ideas. The IJHI encourages interdisciplinary approaches that engage with the following subject areas: philosophy; philosophy of religion; political philosophy; political science; the history of ideas; anthropology; sociology; educational science; and communications theory. One of its primary aims is to integrate the results of several disciplines, ensuring that articles have a synthetic character and acquaint readers with progress in the socio-human studies field.

    The journal is the result of the ongoing efforts of the Department of Socio-Human Research at the 'George Bariţiu' Institute of History in Cluj-Napoca, which is part of the Romanian Academy's network of research institutes. Founded in 2008 by Dr habil. Mihaela Gligor, the journal has, from the outset, undertaken the task of integrating the department's research into an authentic tradition that remains faithful to the work of the great philosophical figures who came before and provided inspiration. These figures include the exceptional Lucian Blaga and D. D. Roşca, who actually worked in one of the department's 'instances'. Following in the footsteps of these two illustrious predecessors, the Department of Socio-Human Research has adopted a consistent strategy for its international outreach, embracing the most advanced themes and methodologies currently driving Western academia. 2020 marks the debut of the current editorial team: Prof. Dr. habil. Virgil Ciomoş, Dr Silviu Totelecan and Dr Cristian Bodea.

    The IJHI is interested in critically identifying and evaluating the main ideologies of the contemporary world from an authentic and responsible perspective. This interest is reflected in themes such as:

    - multiculturalism and interculturalism, and the danger of creating a multi-tiered or corporatist society, in which people are reduced to individuals and social fabric to a mere combination of elements.

    - the normalisation of the state of emergency as the rule, a social and political shift already anticipated by totalitarian regimes of the last century, whether on the right or left, with its perverse effect of restricting personal freedoms and the slow but sure slide towards hidden or overt surveillance or manipulation of civil society by various states around the world.

    - the eruption of terrorism in developed Western societies as a kind of return of what was repressed within and through old Western colonial systems, complete with anarchism and fundamentalism. 

    - the limits of classical modern historicism, which today is losing momentum in its human projects, resulting in the collapse of young generations' confidence in the future and their acceptance of the social and political status quo as the 'ultimate' solution to humanity's great problems.

    - the practical application of philosophy, which is not limited to the social, economic, political or legal spheres, but also addresses the psyche of the contemporary citizen who is seemingly caught in a state of constant anguish, acting as a silent and panicked witness to the accelerated technical production of social reality.

    The journal's articles are hosted by various international databases and the IJHI is regularly indexed and abstracted by CEEOL, EBSCO and ProQuest.

    IJHI is printed by Cluj University Press.
