Peer Review

Submissions are subject to a double-blind peer review process by a minimum of two reviewers. All contributions will be initially assessed by the editor for suitability for the journal. Papers deemed suitable are then typically sent to a minimum of two independent expert reviewers to assess the scientific quality of the paper. The Editor is responsible for the final decision regarding acceptance or rejection of articles. The Editor’s decision is final. Editors are not involved in decisions about papers which they have written themselves or have been written by family members or colleagues or which relate to products or services in which the editor has an interest. Any such submission is subject to all of the journal’s usual procedures, with peer review handled independently of the relevant editor and their research groups

Review Criteria

• Relevance – The law review promotes the development and dissemination of theoretical knowledge, conceptual research, and professional practice knowledge. While there are many related issues, papers on those issues should really only be included if they have some relevance to the research scope and topics.
• Originality – We place an emphasis on new work.
• Clarity/Quality of English – Even the best ideas provide little benefit if no one can understand them because of the way in which they are presented. We look for papers that are well organized and well written.
• References – Papers show their value and their originality by grounding themselves in the literature. Ensure that the paper includes references appropriate for the kind of work. The theoretical studies should have larger reference list, small case studies might only need references to their theoretical underpinnings and one or two related studies.
• Length of Paper – Scientific papers have particular limits and benefits. You should consider whether the ideas are appropriate for the length (8-12 pages).
