PEER REVIEW
Description of the peer review process
The type of review undertaken by the Journal is that of double blind peer-review: two persons who do not know the identity of the author review each article. The authors do not know the identity of the reviewers either. Experts review the article according to the quality indicators specified in this form:

The results of the review are discussed at the meetings of the editorial board. The article is accepted for publication if it corresponds to one of these options:
– Both reviewers give a positive opinion and recommend it for publication;
– If one of the reviewers gives a negative opinion, the article is sent for review to a third reviewer. Based on the opinion of this third reviewer, the editorial board makes a decision.
If the author improves his rejected article, the procedure is resumed.
The term of review is at least six months.
