STSS values authenticity in scientific research, therefore we do not encourage use of AI for any purpose in the article preparation or review process. STSS provides free language editing to accepted articles done by an experienced native speaker so using AI for this purpose is unnecessary. If, as an author or reviewer, you nevertheless choose to rely on AI, please consult the journal’s guidelines on AI use.
Studies of Transition States and Societies is published on a new, modern platform.
All previously published issues, as well as new Online First articles and book reviews, are available here. New submissions are welcome via this website, and future issues of the journal will be released on this platform.
Please note that user accounts from the previous system could not be migrated. All users are kindly asked to register to submit manuscripts, participate in peer review, and receive journal updates.
