Peer Review

  1. After your paper has passed the initial check-up stage, it has to undergo a double-blind review. 
    • The Editor-in-Chief estimates the manuscript's relevance, compliance with the scientific profile of the journal.
    • Two Reviewers are appointed by the Editor-in-Chief from the members of the Editorial Board or acknowledged academic specialists in the related area with at least three years of publishing experience.
    • Reviewers can refuse if they declare a conflict of interests or if they believe they cannot provide an unbiased review for some reason.
  2. A double-blind review procedure means that no information about the Author is available to the Reviewers, and vice versa.
  3. We will normally send you anonymous reviews of your paper within 21-60 days.
  4. Reviewers follow The Rules of Publication Ethics established by the Editorial Board and the policy of the Committee on Publication Ethics (COPE).
  5. Reviews are written in free form; however, they clarify the following compulsory aspects:
    • Is the topic relevant?
    • Does the paper possess any theoretical and practical significance?
    • Is the author’s approach novel?
    • Is the style scientific and clear?
    • Reviewers can also use the review form supplied by the Editor.
  6. The review ends with one of the following recommendations:
    • publish the paper as it is;
    • publish the paper after it has been improved according to the recommendations of the Reviewers if the Author agrees to make such improvements;
    • publish the paper only after the manuscript has been improved according to the recommendations of the reviewers;
    • reject the manuscript with an opportunity to resubmit it;
    • reject the manuscript with no future resubmission.
  7. If both reviews are positive, your manuscript will be accepted for publication. We do not guarantee that your manuscript will be published in the next issue.
  8. Your manuscript might have to undergo an extra review if considered necessary. In case the Editor e-mails you a list of suggested improvements, you can accept them or give a substantiated refusal. Please e-mail your improved variant back to the editor within 30 days; otherwise, your manuscript will have to start from square one.
  9. Your improved version has to be accompanied by a cover letter as a separate file (Name_answer) where you will have to respond to the criticism and explain all the improvements you have made in your paper (Name_paper_improved). Please highlight all the improvements in the text.
  10. In case the Author does not respond to constructive feedback from the Reviewers or the Editor, the manuscript is likely to be rejected.
  11. If both reviews are negative, you will be sent a substantiated rejection letter signed by the Editor-in-Chief or the Deputy Editor. In case the reviews contradict each other, the Editor-in-Chief appoints a third Reviewer.
  12. In case of rejection, you may challenge our decision by sending a letter of appeal to the Editor-in-Chief, in which you explain why your manuscript should be reconsidered. Enclose an improved version of your paper, if necessary. Please, mind that the decision made by the Editor-in-Chief is final and cannot be challenged.
  13. The editor-in-chief evaluates all final manuscripts, reviews, and responses to reviewers and conclusion of the scientific editor in the thematic direction and makes a decision before making a decision to publish, reject, or return the submission for revision. After that, the Editor will inform you about the final decision.
  14. Copies of all reviews can be submitted to the Supreme Qualifying Committee upon request.
