Paper Submission The Editorial Board accepts only unpublished manuscripts in English. All manuscripts undergo an initial editorial review to determine if the manuscript meets the journal's scholarly and editorial standards and fits the journal's goals and themes. Once approved by the editor, the manuscripts undergo a review by at least to reviewers. After receiving the reviews, the authors should send a cover letter to the editors, together with the new version of the manuscript, stating which suggestions of the reviewers they accepted and which they did not (with explanation and argumentation). The editors send a new, corrected version of the manuscript and a cover letter to the reviewers, who decide whether to accept the article in this form. The final decision to accept an article for publication is made by the Editor-in-Chief. All manuscripts submitted by authors in English will be proofread and edited by a native speaker or a professional editor to eliminate spelling and grammatical errors and preferably errors in writing style. Plagiarism Plagiarism is a form of piracy that involves the unauthorized use or imitation of language patterns (representations, images, or tables) and thoughts of others and presenting them as one's own original work without asking permission or crediting the author of the original content. Plagiarism usually involves using someone else's material, but it can also mean copying one's own previously published research without citing it (sometimes referred to as self-plagiarism or duplicate publication).
