Miṣriqiyā aims to advance scholarship on Africa by providing a platform for high-quality, original research that investigates the continent’s diverse histories, societies, cultures, and environments. The journal is committed to fostering interdisciplinary dialogue and supporting innovative approaches that deepen understanding of Africa’s past and present, as well as its connections to global contexts.

The scope of the journal covers a broad range of disciplines, including anthropology, history, sociology, politics, geography, linguistics, literary and cultural studies, and the basic sciences. While the journal’s central mission is to promote African and African-related studies, it also welcomes comparative and cross-regional research that enriches wider academic debates and aligns with its interdisciplinary vision.
