      Authors should address - in part or in full - responses to the following questions ; What is the role of distance education in the implementation of the right to education ? How is distance education involved when education is seen as a right ? What is its position in educational policy, as a factor of quality and an instrument for liberty ? Do the technologies of distance education act as enablers or barriers to achieving the university right to education ? Authors may adopt a pedagogical, sociological, economic, political, technical, legal, practical, or other perspective - as they wish.
      The Editors of the Asian Journal of Distance Education are happy to offer early advice and continued help freely to authors throughout the process of writing and publishing their work.
      Final texts selected by each participating journal (subject to the outcome of the blind peer review process) will be published in their original language on a common website, with open access ; they may also be published on the usual websites of the journals and / or in the printed versions of these journals, either in their original language or translated.
      Accordingly, authors will benefit from a wide international dissemination, and their works will make up a common international reference regarding distance education and the issue of the universal right to education.
