COPYRIGHT POLICY

Authors of manuscripts accepted for publication in the Yonsei Journal of International Studies (YJIS) must submit a signed Copyright Transfer Agreement before publication.

By signing the agreement, the author(s) transfer the copyright of the accepted manuscript to YJIS. This allows the journal to publish, reproduce, distribute, archive, and make the manuscript available in print, online, or in other formats.

The author(s) also confirm that the manuscript:

  • is original and does not infringe upon the copyright or other rights of any third party;

  • has not been published previously and is not being considered by another journal;

  • contains no unlawful or defamatory material; and

  • has been reviewed by the author(s) for accuracy and integrity.

All authors should sign the agreement. One author may sign on behalf of the co-authors only when authorized to do so.

Accepted manuscripts cannot be published until YJIS has received the completed and signed agreement.

Please download the Copyright Transfer Agreement from the link below, complete and sign it, and upload the completed form through the submission portal, at the time of submitting the manuscript.
