The Journal of Sāmoan Studies is a multidisciplinary publication devoted to the study of Sāmoa, published by the National University of Sāmoa, through its Center for Sāmoan Studies. Every issue features blind peer reviewed articles that discuss a range of topics focused on Sāmoan history, culture, society and people, along with research reports and shorter communications. JSS is managed by a Chief Editor and Associate Editor, both based at CSS. The journal also has an editorial board comprised of scholars and experts in Sāmoa and abroad.
