For articles submitted in English, the journal generally follows The Chicago Manual of Style (Humanities) for citations. Deviations from this style should be discussed with the editorial office prior to the submission of a paper. The journal provides proofreading (by a native English speaker) for free.

Peer-review Process

All research articles which fulfil the basic scholarly requirements (length of the article, footnotes, and substantial bibliography) are anonymously sent to two reviewers who are respected experts in a given field and are not part of the editorial office. The peer-review process usually takes 2-3 months (in some cases, however, it may take longer).

After receiving both reviews which either recommend the article without further revisions or with minor revisions, the editors will notify the author and anonymously make the comments available to the author.

In the case of two contradictory reviews, the editors will find the third reviewer.

In the case the reviewers suggest major revisions, the author will be asked to rewrite the article and resubmit for the peer-review process again.

Books reviews and review articles are not peer-reviewed.
