The main objective of Methodology of Humanities and Social Sciences (MSSH) is to provide an intellectual platform for national and international researchers to discuss their most recent findings related to philosophical foundations and methodology of humanities and social sciences. By doing so, the Journal hopes to improve the status of the field in Iran and in the world and to find solutions to theoretical and practical problems the profession is faced with. Given the importance of the humanities and social sciences and the fundamental role of these sciences in the realization of a coherent and civilized intellectual system, investigating the philosophical and methodological foundations of these sciences and criticizing and evaluating them, as well as attempting to extract Islamic foundations and views in the field of humanities is of great importance.
