About the Journal

AI & Power Discourse Quarterly is an independent academic journal dedicated to the critical exploration of language, authority, and algorithmic structures in the age of artificial intelligence.

This journal provides a platform for interdisciplinary research at the intersection of discourse analysis, computational linguistics, political epistemology, and posthuman studies. It seeks to understand how power is enacted, legitimized, and reproduced through syntactic forms, data models, and operative representations that increasingly bypass human referentiality.

Focus and Scope
AI & Power Discourse Quarterly publishes original research, theoretical frameworks, and critical essays that investigate:

The role of AI in shaping epistemic authority
Algorithmic discourse and legitimacy
Structural autonomy of language models
Post-referential representation and meaning-making
Ethics of computational governance
Syntactic systems and power reproduction

Philosophical Commitment

The journal does not endorse any technological determinism or utopian narrative. Instead, it promotes rigorous analysis of the mechanisms through which artificial systems contribute to or reshape political, institutional, and discursive legitimacy.

Publication Frequency
The journal is published quarterly (four issues per year), with each issue including a curated selection of peer-reviewed articles, editorials, and invited contributions.
