Peer Review Process

December 30, 2023 (policy update)

The editorial board of the journal Economy: strategy and practice adheres to the recommendations of the COPE (Committee on Publication Ethics) when working with manuscripts and reviewers and when organizing the review process.

Type of review

All manuscripts submitted to the editorial office of the journal Economy: strategy and practice undergo mandatory double-blind review, in which the reviewers do not know the identity of the authors, and the authors do not know the identity of the reviewers. Each manuscript is sent to at least two experts in their field of research.

Review period

The review process in the journal Economy: strategy and practice takes on average from 1 to 3 months. During this period, the editorial board of the journal includes time for the initial review of the manuscript, the selection of reviewers, time to prepare a review, time to finalize the article by the author and re-review, and the involvement of additional experts.

Review progress

The decision to select a reviewer for the journal Economy: strategy and practice is made by the Deputy Editor-in-Chief and editors.

The manuscript should contain insightful and influential ideas on the journal's directions. Ideas and conclusions (theoretical or empirical) should offer new understanding and knowledge about economics, management, and business. When receiving different opinions about the manuscript, a third expert may be involved in the work. Each article is sent to at least two experts.

The editor of the journal Economy: strategy and practice can give the author one of the following decisions on the manuscript:

• Accept for publication. In this case, the manuscript will be included in one of the regular issues of the journal and will be handed over to the editor for further work. The author will be notified of the publication date.
• Accept for publication after correcting the shortcomings noted by the reviewer. In this case, the author will be asked to make the changes indicated by the reviewer to the manuscript within a week. In case of elimination of deficiencies or in case of justified refusal to make changes, the manuscript is accepted for publication.
• Accept for publication after correcting the shortcomings noted by the reviewer and re-reviewing. In this case, the author will be asked to make the changes indicated by the reviewer within two weeks. The manuscript will be sent for re-review. Within 30 days, the author will receive a final decision on the manuscript's fate.
• Reject the article. In this case, the author will be sent a reasoned refusal to publish the manuscript. Refusal to publish does not prohibit authors from further sending manuscripts to the journal Economy: strategy and practice. However, if publication is refused due to gross violations on the part of the author, the editor-in-chief may decide to include the author in the blacklist. In this case, other articles by this author will not be considered.

The editorial board of the journal Economy: strategy and practice provides for three rounds of review - this means that after the first decision to finalize the article, the author has two attempts to make changes on the reviewer's recommendation or a reasoned rejection of them. If, after the third round of peer review, the expert again sends comments, the editor of the journal will invite the author to consider publishing in another journal or to submit the article for review again with the changes made in 6 months.

Conflict of interest

If the author has a conflict of interest with an expert who can potentially become a manuscript reviewer, he must notify the journal editor. The editorial board of the journal Economy: strategy and practice will select another reviewer if necessary.

In the process of reviewing a manuscript, a conflict may arise between the author and the reviewer. In this case, the editor of the journal Economy: strategy and practice has the right to appoint a new reviewer for the manuscript and involve the editor-in-chief to settle disputes.

The journal Economy: strategy and practice may publish articles by the editor-in-chief, his deputy, scientific editor and members of the editorial board, but there should be no abuse of official position. The manuscripts of the editors of the journal are sent for double-blind review and only external experts are involved to resolve contradictions and conflict situations. In case of a conflict regarding the fate of the manuscript of the editor-in-chief, the final decision on the possibility of publishing the article is made by the members of the editorial board.

Composition of reviewers

Experts with experience in the relevant subject area and publications on the subject of the reviewed manuscript over the past 3 years are involved in reviewing all incoming manuscripts. If the subject of the article is very narrow and/or the author claims a potential conflict of interest when reviewing by external experts, members of the editorial board and/or the editorial board may be involved in reviewing.

Principles of selection of reviewers to ensure high-quality expertise

The editorial board of the journal Economy: strategy and practice conducts regular work on attracting recognized experts in the field of economics, business, and management to work on the journal, as well as on timely rotation of reviewers.

Reviewers are invited to work with the journal on the recommendation of the editor-in-chief, his deputy, members of the editorial board/council, as well as the authors.

The responsible editor of the journal regularly monitors publications on the subject of the journal in the databases Scopus, Web of Science, COXNVO and sends an invitation for cooperation to the authors of publications.

If the quality of the review does not satisfy the editors, cooperation with the reviewer is terminated.

The journal Economy: strategy and practice does not exempt scientists from reviewing manuscripts, regardless of their status.

Plagiarism statement

The editorial board of the journal "Economy: Strategy and Practice", when reviewing all manuscripts for compliance with formal requirements (manuscript design) and before sending them for review, checks for the presence of borrowed text in the manuscript through a plagiarism verification system. By submitting their manuscripts to the journal authors are agreeing to any necessary originality checks the manuscript may have to undergo during the publication process.

The journal "Economy: strategy and practice" stands for compliance with the principles of ethics and integrity of science. The editorial board of the journal has chosen a reliable partner in ensuring the quality of scientific publications and concluded a cooperation agreement with JSC "Anti-Plagiarism". This service was created by Russian developers in 2005 and is actively operating in academic institutes, universities, publishing houses, etc. in Kazakhstan, Russia, Belarus and other countries of the world. The analysis of the works is carried out on the basis of a specialized information search and processing system. The program shows clear and manageable reporting data, coloring all the similarities of the text and forming a list of links to primary sources, automatic detection of replacement of characters and letters in the text, as well as reverse automatic replacement of correct ones in the text and search for plagiarism of the modified version.

Only original manuscripts and/or those manuscripts in which, according to the results of the plagiarism check, the originality is more than 85% are sent for further review. If the manuscript does not meet the design requirements set in the journal and is not an original work based on the results of a plagiarism check, the manuscript is returned to the author for correspondence for making appropriate changes and re-sending the manuscript for consideration by the editorial board via the electronic platform of the journal.

Literal copying

Copying the work word by word, in whole or in parts, without permission or confirmation of the source. Literal copying is clearly plagiarism and is easily detected by plagiarism software.

Substantial copying

Replication of a significant part of the work without permission and confirmation of the source. When determining what is "substantial", both the quantity and quality of the copied content are important. Quality is measured by the relative cost of the copied text compared to the entire text. Where the essence of the work was copied, even not a very large part of it, plagiarism is identified.

Paraphrasing

Copying can be done without the literal copying used in the original work. This type of copying is known as paraphrasing, and it may be the most difficult type of plagiarism that can be detected.

Plagiarism in all its forms is unacceptable and will lead to the immediate rejection of the article along with possible sanctions against the authors. The authors of an article in which a provable fact of plagiarism was discovered are not allowed to submit articles to the journal "Economy: strategy and practice" for the next 3  years.

Preprint and postprint Policy

Prior to acceptance and publication in “Economy: strategy and practice", authors may make their submissions available as preprints on personal or public websites.
