Journal of Pragmatics and Discourse Research (2828-4755) "JPDR"is an international peer-reviewed research journal that enhances the examination of pragmatics and discourse as socially situated practices that influence meaning, power, identity, and social transformation. The journal places particular emphasis on Asian and Global South contexts, where language operates within complex cultural, religious, technological, and socio-political environments. JPDR accepts empirical, theoretical, and interdisciplinary research that investigates the role of language not only as a means of representation but also as a tool for social intervention, negotiation, and sustainability. The journal particularly prioritises research that aligns with the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and addresses real-world societal challenges through discourse and pragmatism-based analysis.

The journal welcomes submissions on the following topics, among others:

Indigenous, Cultural, and Religious Discourse. Research focuses on how local traditions, rituals, belief systems, indigenous narratives, and religious texts serve as communicative practices, shaping social cohesion, ecological ethics, health, and disaster mitigation.
Pragmatics and Discourse of Social Justice and Inequality. Research addressing gender, power, marginalization, violence, minority voices, and justice through critical, socio-pragmatic, and discourse-analytic perspectives.
Digital Discourse, Media, and Communication Ethics. The research focuses on analysing various aspects, such as online interaction, social media discourse, impoliteness, cyberbullying, anonymity, fan culture, AI-mediated communication, and digital participation, with a particular focus on youths and vulnerable groups.
Educational and Pedagogical Discourse. Studies examine classroom interaction, teacher identity, curriculum discourse, technology-enhanced learning, and man-machine collaboration in educational contexts, with a particular focus on Asia and developing regions.
Language, Identity, and Power in Multicultural Societies. The study focuses on how discourse and pragmatic choices shape identity, emotion, authority, resistance, and solidarity in multilingual, multicultural, and minority communities.

JPDR encourages thorough research that uses methods like discourse analysis, critical discourse analysis, pragmatics, socio-pragmatics, narrative analysis, ethnography, corpus approaches, and mixed methods, as long as language is considered a practice linked to society that has real impacts.

JPDR has been accredited SINTA 3 (2023) by the Ministry of Research, Technology and Higher Education, the Republic of Indonesia, started from Volume 1 Number 1 (2021). Then in the accreditation submission in 2024, JPDR remains in SINTA 3 starting from Volume 4 Number 2 Year 2024 until Volume 9 Number 1 Year 2029.
