Peer reviewing

The published articles are submitted to double-peer-reviewing. The procedure is as follows:

Each article is sent to independent reviewer, whose research work is closest to the subject of the article. The reviewer receives an anonymous copy of the manuscript and should give his/her evaluations within 14 days. The reviewer’ recommendations determine whether a paper will be accepted; subjected to resubmission with changes and additions; rejected. The list of the independent reviewers is available here.

The final decision whether the article will be published is made by the editorial board based on the reviews.

Reviews (without the names of the reviewers) are sent immediately to the authors together with information on whether the article has been accepted for publication without changes; with a requirement for changes and additions in accordance with the reviews; or is rejected. In cases when the article is accepted with requirements for changes or additions, the authors are given a period of 14 days to make corrections.

Articles accepted for printing are edited, prepared for printing, and published within 6 to 9 months after receiving the final text.
