Perantau: Journal of Migration, Borders, and Belonging is a peer-reviewed, open-access academic journal that publishes high-quality scholarly work on the diverse and complex dimensions of migration, border regimes, transnationalism, and belonging. The journal provides an interdisciplinary platform for original research, conceptual reflections, and policy-oriented studies that engage with contemporary and historical issues related to human mobility.

We welcome contributions from scholars working in fields such as international relations, anthropology, sociology, religious studies, legal studies, and area studies—especially those with a focus on Southeast Asia and the Global South. The journal emphasizes critical perspectives and encourages submissions that explore underrepresented voices and lived experiences in global migration discourses.

Perantau is published by the International Nusantara Research Centre Yogyakarta under Yayasan Griya Taman Madani Insani, in collaboration with International Waqaf Ilmu Nusantara, Malaysia.
