Publication Ethics

‘Almanac of Law’ publishes only those materials that have successfully passed the peer-review process.

All articles submitted to the editorial board that fall within the journal’s scope undergo the peer-review process.

The purpose of the peer review process is to ensure a rigorous selection of manuscripts for publication and, where necessary, to provide specific recommendations for their improvement.

The peer review process is designed to provide the most objective assessment of the content of a research article, to determine its compliance with the journal’s requirements, and involves a comprehensive analysis of the article’s strengths and weaknesses.

Only those articles that are of scientific value and contribute to the resolution of current issues and challenges in state-building and law-making are accepted for publication. The degree of compliance with the rules for preparing an article for publication in a scientific journal is considered separately (see Requirements for the formatting of articles).

Materials submitted to the editorial board undergo a double-blind peer review process, carried out by two independent reviewers, based on the principle of objectivity and in accordance with the highest international and national academic quality standards.
