PEER REVIEW
The Editor sends all submitted papers to the ADVISORY BOARD and to outside anonymous reviewers to assess whether or not they can be approved for publication.
Those papers accepted for publication reflect the views of the authors, and not necessarily those of the Editor.
The ADVISORY BOARD is an independent advisory entity responsible for ensuring the scientific excellence of the journal. Composed of prestigious authorities, the board assesses the merits of the manuscripts submitted for publication with a peer review polity by two external evaluators for each submission, ruling fairly on their acceptance, revision or rejection on the basis of the scientific quality of them.
Accordingly, the ADVISORY BOARD is sovereign in deciding on the publication of any paper submitted and the Editor can do nothing about it, limiting only to communicate their decisions to authors.
