Journal Moral Kemasyarakatan (JMK) is a scholarly forum dedicated to advancing conceptual and empirical studies on values, morality, character, and ethics within diverse socio-cultural and educational contexts. The journal prioritizes cross-disciplinary research from the social sciences and humanities that critically examine the formation, development, and manifestation of moral reasoning, moral emotions, ethical behavior, value-based decision-making, and character formation.

JMK welcomes original research articles that explore:

• Moral and character education

• Moral psychology and the cognitive, emotional, and motivational dimensions of moral behavior

• Ethical and civic reasoning in family, school, community, and public spheres

• Values education and the transmission of ethical norms across generations

• Professional and practical ethics in education, citizenship, and public service

• Sociocultural dynamics of morality, including issues of ideology, identity, multiculturalism, and peace

• Moral development in youth and adult populations within civic and educational institutions

The journal prioritizes empirical studies—qualitative, quantitative, or mixed methods—that present field-based findings grounded in real-world moral experiences and interactions.

JMK does not typically accept articles that are purely literature reviews or that lack clear conceptual engagement with values, morality, character, or ethics as core constructs.
