JOURNAL MANAGEMENT
Journal of Law Studies’s editorial process is highly structured, with systematic procedures intended to assist the editor-in-chief, associate editors, reviewers and authors in the editorial process. Besides the editorial board, the journal also has an experienced office staff supporting all processes in order to assure publication quality, timeliness and adherence to other requirements of indexing services such as Web of Science, Scopus, SciELO, and COPE’s Guidelines, and subscribes to the principles of COPE. The office staff checks submissions for originality, formatting standards and APA norms, communicates with authors, reviewers and editors on ordinary routines, and builds statistics from the various indexing platforms where the journal is present. The journal uses PKP’s OJS 3 platform to manage the peer-review process, and, export the articles in XML format for indexers.
