Thematic Issues and Publication Format
The series publishes special thematic issues devoted to current topics in economics, business, and management. Publication follows a continuous publication model: each article appears online immediately after peer review and formal acceptance, without waiting for the entire issue to be completed.
Academic Standards and Research Integrity
The series adheres to internationally recognized standards of academic publishing. All submissions must demonstrate scientific novelty, methodological rigor, transparency of data sources, and proper citation practices. Each manuscript undergoes originality verification using professional plagiarism-detection software. Authors are required to declare the absence of research misconduct, disclose any potential conflicts of interest, sources of funding, author contributions, and data accessibility status.
Editorial Structure of Thematic Issues
Each thematic issue is supervised by a designated Guest Editor, who defines the academic scope of the issue, coordinates the review process, and provides recommendations on the acceptance of papers. The Guest Editor operates within the editorial policy of the series and in close cooperation with the permanent Editorial Board.
Peer Review Process
All manuscripts undergo a double-blind peer review, in which the identities of both authors and reviewers remain anonymous during the evaluation process. Possible editorial decisions include: accept, accept with minor revisions, revise and resubmit, or reject. The final publication decision is based on the reviewers’ reports and the Guest Editor’s recommendation, with additional compliance checks conducted by the series editorial office.
Open Access Policy
All publications are made available under an open access model. Full texts can be freely read, downloaded, and shared without access restrictions. Copyright and usage terms are regulated by a Creative Commons license, with the specific license type indicated on each article’s webpage.
Identifiers, Metadata, and Long-Term Availability
Each published work receives stable bibliographic metadata and persistent identifiers. Articles are formatted with machine-readable markup to facilitate indexing, archiving, and long-term accessibility within international databases and repositories.
Call for Contributions and Guest Editors
The series invites researchers and academic professionals to contribute to upcoming thematic issues and to propose new topics within the broader fields of economics, business, and management. Interdisciplinary and region-specific themes are particularly welcome.
We also encourage qualified scholars to participate as Guest Editors. Guest Editors define the focus of a thematic issue, coordinate peer review, and ensure that all published materials meet the editorial and ethical standards of the series.
Proposals for thematic issues or editorial collaboration may be submitted to the Editorial Office at any time. Each proposal is evaluated for its scholarly relevance, originality, and potential contribution to the development of the field.
