Evaluation of articles

A paper proposed by a member of the editorial board or by the coordinator of an issue shall undergo the same double-blind evaluation procedure as any article submitted to the journal.

The editorial board selects the reviewers for each paper submitted in order to ensure the evaluation’s scientific quality and objectivity.

At the end of the evaluation process, a statement of the editorial board including a summary of the experts’ reports is to be forwarded to the author.

Papers that violate copyright law will not be accepted. The journal does not endorse any form of defamation, slander or insult.

All authors must be credited and their affiliation specified.

It is recommended that, within reason, the authors mobilized are listed in a reference list, whether they are not explicitly cited or not.

The author must ensure that he/she has the right to publish images, maps, tables or graphs included in the article. The authors of such material are to be cited in the captions.
