The Journal of Vaishnava Studies is a biannual academic journal that was established in 1992 by Steven J. Rosen[1] (Satyaraja Dasa), and is currently published by the Institute for Vaishnava Studies. It is a peer-reviewed, and curated journal dedicated to scholarly research associated with Vishnu-related traditions. In 2002, the journal affiliated with Christopher Newport University and with A. Deepak Publishing. Prof. Graham M Schweig and Prof. Krishna Abhishek Ghosh are the two other current senior editors of the journal.
Its Spring 2012 issue has been described as "a fine volume of interfaith reflection that covers fifteen years of Vaishnava/Christian dialogue, most of which has taken place at an annual conference at Rockwood Manor in Potomac, Maryland".[2]
The Journal of Vaishnava Studies was founded in 1992 by Steven J. Rosen who is also the editor-in-chief. It is funded by and housed at the Institute of Vaishnava Studies. It is subsidized by The Mira & Ajay Shingal Center for Dharma Studies of the Graduate Theological Union, Berkeley, California.[3] [4]
Francis Xavier Clooney has commented positively on the contribution the journal has made to Hindu scholarly publishing.[5]
Edwin Bryant and Maria Ekstrand describe the journal as a "truly nonpartisan enterprise that highlights contemporary research by major scholars not only of the Chaitanya tradition but also of Vaishnavism in general".[6]
