Editors aim to provide authors with an efficient and high-quality review process. Where articles are sent out for full review, authors receive careful reports and feedback.
We try our best to uphold objective and neutral review standards to provide space for pluralist positions.
The journal is based on Gold Open Access. Online readers don't have to pay any fees. For authors, all Article Processing Charges (APCs) are waived. We believe that the diffusion of knowledge should not be limited by Article Processing Charges.
