The review process
Papers are published in Croatian, Bosnian and Serbian language (in Latin or Cyrillic
alphabet) or English.
If the manuscript meets the criteria of the magazine, it is fowarded to review.
Each manuscript is evaluated by at least two reviewers, with the identity of the
authors and reviewers remain mutually unknown. After evaluation of the reviewers
and members of the editorial board, the manuscript is returned to the author with
an explanation and requirements for revision and correction of work, if it deems
it necessary. Authors should return the corrected manuscripts to the editorial office
within 15 days of receipt.
It is assumed that articles and other contributions have not been and will not be
published in other publications, except with special approval of the editorial board,
in that case it is clearly indicated in the publication.
The authors allow the journal to post their work on the journal website.
The journal reserves all other rights, unless otherwise is agreed with the author.
Papers should be submitted to the e-mail adress of the journal's editorial board:
izdavackadjelatnost.ceps@gmail.com
The document should be made in Microsoft Word. There must be no indication of personal
identity of the author or the institution in which any of the authors work, as in
the work, so not in the characteristics (properties) of the electronic document.
Papers submitted to the Editorial Board should be edited.
We look forward to your contributions!
