Japan Quarterly of Professional Practice (JQPP) is an independent, Tokyo-based, open-access journal publishing applied research and professional scholarship in English.
Meet the editorial function and see how manuscripts are assessed. JQPP lists one editor and three subject-area reviewer roles; reviewer identities are not currently published individually. External peer review is not its standard review model.
The categories we use to organize knowledge are useful, but real problems rarely respect them. Technology becomes a question of institutions, incentives, organization, regulation, and human judgment. Markets connect to culture and policy. Professional decisions often sit at the intersection of several forms of knowledge at once. JQPP is interested in work that follows the question, rather than stopping at the edge of a field.
Valuable ideas are often shaped by the place in which they are developed. Japan has deep professional, institutional, and practical knowledge that is not always easy to see from outside, while research and practice developed elsewhere do not always enter Japanese discussion in a form that can be readily understood or applied. JQPP publishes primarily in English to make that movement easier in both directions.
We do not see that role as a claim to speak for either side, or to see further than others. The journal is closer to a small periscope: a limited but deliberate window through which one field of view can become visible from another. We are interested in work that remains clear about its assumptions, evidence, limits, and practical relevance as it moves across contexts.
