Manuscripts that do not meet the basic requirements will be rejected with notes outlining reasons of rejection.

4. Peer-review. All manuscripts that pass the initial screening stage, will be distributed to two experts in the relevant field to undergo a double-blind peer-review.
5. The reviewer allocates time to read the article numerous times. The first read serves to generate a first impression of the text. If significant problems are discovered at this stage, the reviewer may feel safe rejecting the article without further investigation. Otherwise, they will reread the document numerous times, collecting notes and creating a meticulous point-by-point review. The review is subsequently submitted to the journal, along with the reviewer's suggestion (for revising, accepting, or rejecting the manuscript).
6. First Decision. A decision on a peer-reviewed manuscript will be given once both reviewers have submitted their review reports. In the event that both reviewers have differing opinions about the manuscript, the final decision will be handed over to the Editor-in-Chief. At this stage, the author(s) will receive at least one of this decision: accepted; revision required; or rejected.
7. Revision Stage. Manuscripts that have been recommended for revision will be returned to the author(s). Author(s) will have up to 1 month to revise the manuscripts. The revision process will be limited to a maximum of three rounds.
8. If accepted, the paper is moved to production. If the article is rejected or returned for significant or minor change, the handling editor should incorporate constructive feedback from the reviewers to help the author improve the piece. At this point, reviewers should be notified by email or letter about the conclusion of their evaluation. If the article was returned for revision, the reviewers should expect to receive a new version, unless they opted out of future participation. However, if only small modifications are requested, the handling editor may conduct the follow-up review.
9. Final Decision. If the author fails to meet the revision requirements after the second or third round, the manuscript will be rejected.
