Peer Reviewers

Manuscripts submitted to this journal should be written in English and should address its main focus and scope: business, managements, economics, development, sustainability, green/blue economy, empowerment, entrepreneurship and its related issues.

The journal primarily accepts original-research-based manuscripts for its publication and only accepts a small proportion of non-research papers. All submitted manuscripts are subject to stages of the editorial process including a double-blind review process.

Once a manuscript is submitted to the journal through an online submission process, an assigned section editor will do an initial screening to examine eligibility for a full review process (for example, whether it is in compliance with the focus and scope of the journal). If it passes the initial screening, the manuscript will be blindly reviewed by two reviewers, and a third reviewer maybe added in case the two reviewers have differing opinions on the review results.

Considering review reports by the peer reviewers, the journal’s editorial board will finally deliberate on the final decision, whether to accept or reject the manuscript. The maximum time for the reviewing process by each reviewer is expected to be about 3 weeks.
