Journals for Cross-Country Technology Research (2026)

Cross-country technology research — comparing technology adoption, innovation ecosystems, digital transformation, or engineering practices across multiple countries — requires journals that genuinely represent the international research community. Keith Publications technology journals provide the international platform and editorial breadth needed for comparative and cross-national technology research.

Fast Publication: All Keith Publications journals complete initial review within 2–5 business days and full peer review within 2–4 weeks. Articles are published online within 5–10 days of acceptance — making us one of the fastest open access publishers in the engineering and technology field.

Publishing Engineering Research on the Global Stage

Engineering and technology research is inherently global — problems like climate change, urbanisation, healthcare delivery, and digital connectivity are shared worldwide. Keith Publications engineering journals welcome submissions from researchers in every country, from leading research universities in the USA and UK to emerging engineering schools in Africa, Asia, and Latin America. Our open access model ensures your research is equally accessible to colleagues in Lagos, Lima, Manila, or London — breaking down the geographic barriers that have historically disadvantaged researchers from developing countries.

Support for Researchers in Developing Countries

Keith Publications is committed to supporting engineering researchers from developing and emerging economies. We offer APC waiver programmes for eligible researchers, clear and transparent submission guidelines in plain English, and a responsive editorial support team that assists authors navigating the publication process for the first time. Our international editorial board ensures research from diverse global contexts is evaluated fairly, without bias toward certain institutional names or geographic origins. Engineering innovation happens everywhere — we are committed to ensuring it can be shared globally.

Tips to Maximise Your Acceptance Chances

  1. Align your topic with the journal's scope — read the aims and scope carefully before submitting.
  2. Write a compelling abstract — it's the first thing editors and reviewers read. Make it clear, concise, and keyword-rich.
  3. Ensure strong methodology — clearly describe your research design, experimental setup, or computational approach.
  4. Use current and relevant citations — include recent publications (within the last 5 years) alongside seminal engineering works.
  5. Follow formatting guidelines exactly — non-compliant manuscripts are often desk-rejected without review.
  6. Present results clearly — use tables, figures, and graphs to communicate quantitative findings effectively.
  7. State practical implications — explain how your engineering or technology findings can be applied in practice.

Frequently Asked Questions

Which journals are best for cross-country technology research?
Keith Publications technology journals — CJET and ASETJ — are excellent venues for cross-country technology research, accepting multi-national study designs and international comparative analyses with no geographic bias in the review process.
Can I publish comparative studies of technology adoption across countries?
Yes. Comparative studies of technology adoption rates, digital infrastructure across countries, national innovation system comparisons, and cross-country engineering practice analysis are within scope for publication at CJET and ASETJ.
How should cross-country comparative data be collected and presented?
Use standardised data collection methods across countries, apply consistent measurement scales, control for country-level confounders (GDP, infrastructure maturity, digital literacy), and acknowledge comparative validity limitations. Statistical analysis appropriate for cross-country comparison (multilevel modelling, meta-analysis) strengthens such studies.
Are cross-country studies on technology access and digital divide accepted?
Yes. Research on the global digital divide, technology access disparities, digital inclusion policies, and engineering for universal technology access is within scope and particularly relevant for international journal audiences.
