RESPONSIBILITIES OF THE EDITORS

Decision to publish

The Editor-in-Chief is responsible for all material published in the Polish Review of International and European Law. The decision to accept or reject a given academic text is based primarily on reviews, the importance of the text and its originality and clarity.

Texts submitted for publication are not rejected because of the views expressed in them, provided that they are academically justified and do not discredit other authors. All articles will always be evaluated regardless of any reasons. The editorial team does not accept texts that serve as war propaganda or that spread hatred.

The Editorial Team may not appoint as reviewers academics who are the direct superiors of the submitting authors, collaborate with the submitting authors within the same research team or at the same university, or have any other close personal relationship with the submitting authors.

Confidentiality

The Editorial Board does not share any personal information of authors with reviewers and vice versa. Information obtained by members of the Editorial Board during the review process, as well as information from articles not accepted for publication or extracts thereof, will not be used in their own research.

A member of the Editorial Board should avoid conflicts of interest arising from relationships with the author of the submitted text or the institution where the teskt was prepared.

The Editorial Board requires all authors to disclose relevant circumstances indicating a conflict of interest and to publish relevant information if conflicting interests are disclosed after publication.

Guidelines for support staff and reviewers

The Editorial Board provides technical guidance for language editors, support staff and reviewers, and develops policies for various aspects of the editorial and review process. It develops a review template and other standardised documents to be used throughout the editorial and review process. The template and other standardised documents serve in the organisation and standardisation of the editorial and peer review process.
