Peer reviewers

The "Pravo - teorija i praksa" applies the procedure of double-blind reviewing of all papers. The papers classified as scientific ones must have two positive reviews according to the Act on editing scientific magazines. At least two reviewers are hired to work.Reviewers work independently of one another, and their identity is mutually unknown. Reviewers are obliged to evaluate the scientific value of the paper in a professional, argumental, impartial way and send it to the editor within a week. The reviewer considering him/herself incompetent for the topic or field the paper deals with is required to inform the editor about this. The review must be objective and a reviewer`s opinion has to be supported by certain arguments. The paper given to the reviewer in order to be reviewed is considered to be a confidential document.

The aim of the review is to help the editorial board make the decision on accepting or rejecting the paper. The goal also refers to the quality of the manuscript to be improved through the process of communication with the editor, authors themselves and other reviewers.
