Book & Chapter Review Policy
All submissions undergo a thorough double-blind peer review process, typically completed within two weeks of submission. Once accepted, papers cannot be retracted under any circumstances.
Simultaneous submission to multiple journals or platforms is strongly discouraged. Authors are advised to await the outcome of the review before considering further submissions elsewhere.
Ethics Standards
Our publishing process is governed by principles of honesty, transparency and fairness. We respect intellectual property rights and ensure proper attribution and protection of all submitted works.
Editorial independence is fundamental, ensuring decisions are free from bias or external influence. Confidentiality is maintained for all unpublished manuscripts and sensitive information.
Adherence to best practices, including guidelines established by organizations like the Committee on Publication Ethics (COPE), ensures integrity throughout our operations. All contributors are required to disclose any conflicts of interest that may affect the publishing process.
Through these standards, we strive to cultivate a culture of trust, respect and ethical conduct in the publishing community.
