Hungarian Cultural Studies aims to be politically neutral, providing a scholarly forum for original research in or related to Hungarian Studies, that is, all aspects of Hungarian culture across the humanities and social science disciplines (such as, but not limited to, history, literature, cultural studies, linguistics music, film, folklore, sociology, history of science). Articles related to overseas Hungarian communities as well as Hungarians in the neighboring states of Austria, Croatia, Romania, Serbia, Slovakia, Slovenia, and Ukraine, are also of interest. Articles published are based on a wide range of perspectives and utilize a plurality of theories and methodologies, with those of a comparative, multicultural and multidisciplinary nature particularly encouraged.

As part of its mission to disseminate scholarship related to Hungarian Studies to the broadest possible public worldwide, Hungarian Cultural Studies primarily publishes in English; however, articles in Hungarian are also considered. With the same aim, the journal may occasionally also publish translations of seminal scholarship that has appeared in another language.  Hungarian Cultural Studies publishes scholarly articles in regular and thematic issues, scholarly notes, reviews and review articles on scholarly books and of recent dissertations, and research bibliographies related to Hungarian Studies. (Please note that we do not publish poetry or creative writing in any form.)
