CALL (ISSN 3054-4742) is an independent, peer-reviewed, open-access academic journal established by the Call Press Scholarly Group. Headquartered in Eschweiler, Germany, CALL operates as a decentralized intellectual node dedicated to publishing research that traditional academic venues often overlook, misunderstand, or systematically reject.
Our Mission: Unrestricted Science
The modern academic ecosystem is increasingly driven by metric-obsessed publishing models, where only "positive," "significant," or "safe" results see the light of day. CALL was founded to disrupt this echo chamber. We believe that scientific progress is not linear, and profound insights are often hidden within null results, unconventional methodologies, and intellectual "waste."
We provide a rigorous yet unrestricted platform for researchers, thinkers, and independent scholars to present:
-
Null & Negative Results: Because knowing what doesn't work is as crucial as knowing what does.
-
Alternative Hypotheses & Edge Cases: Explorations that challenge mainstream paradigms.
-
Methodological Critiques: Honest post-mortems of failed experiments and systemic flaws in research design.
-
Satirical & Meta-Academic Research: Thought-provoking commentary on the absurdity of the "publish or perish" culture.
Editorial Philosophy
At CALL, we evaluate submissions based on their internal logical consistency, methodological transparency, and potential to spark discourse—not their conformity to established dogmas or their likelihood of generating citations.
We employ an unconventional, accelerated peer-review process that prioritizes open debate over gatekeeping. Our editorial board consists of both established academics and independent intellectuals who share our vision for a more honest scientific record.
