Knowledge in Dialogue: Interdisciplinary Contributions from the Social Sciences and Humanities to Understanding the Present
Vol. 6 No. Especial 3 (2026)The complexity of the phenomena currently shaping our societies can hardly be explained within the confines of a single discipline. Tensions between the local and the global, institutional transformations, new forms of social interaction, and the ethical questions inherent in communal life call for an approach capable of integrating diverse perspectives, methods, and intellectual traditions. This special issue of the peer-reviewed journal *InveCom* invites researchers, educators, and scholars to share studies and reviews—drawing on fields such as communication and journalism, politics and law, philosophy and the humanities, social sciences and sociology, education, and management and economics—that help rigorously interpret contemporary reality. The call for papers is intentionally broad and not limited to a specific topic. The aim is to create a forum where diverse perspectives can complement and challenge one another, fostering a more holistic understanding of social issues and strengthening the role of the social sciences and humanities in the pursuit of relevant, critical solutions committed to human development.

Innovation, Ethics and Digital Transformations in the Redefinition of the Human
Vol. 6 No. Especial 2 (2026)The accelerated convergence of artificial intelligence, the automation and virtualization of everyday processes on the ground is reconfiguring productive and institutional structures, which is radically transforming the nature of human interactions and the construction of subjectivity. In this scenario of ontological and technological transition, social and human sciences are faced with the imperative challenge of articulating analytical frameworks capable of critically evaluating the impact of digital media, transcending technological determinism to place dignity, equity and ethical responsibility at the center of the debate.
This special issue of the InveCom Arbitrated Scientific Journal calls on researchers, academics and thinkers to examine the tensions, discontinuities and emergencies that arise at the intersection between technology and society. It seeks to deepen how digital innovation redefines notions of citizenship, work, knowledge and culture, offering multidisciplinary perspectives that contribute to guiding normative, pedagogical and political decisions necessary to guarantee technological development oriented towards collective well-being and social justice.
Thematic areas of contribution
- Communication and Journalism: Synthetic disinformation, algorithms in the media agenda, data journalism and informative sovereignty in the face of emerging platforms.

Social sciences and global change: narratives, representations and challenges
Vol. 6 No. Especial 1 (2026)The contemporary landscape, characterized by accelerated structural transformations and multidimensional crises, demands a profound reinterpretation from the social sciences to understand how narratives of global change are constructed, disseminated, and assimilated. Thus, critically examining discursive flows allows the social sciences to decode emerging imaginaries and offer indispensable analytical tools to guide societies in the face of the uncertainties of the future of the global environment.
