Duties of Editors

Decision on Publication of Articles

The Editor-in-Chief of ADIL is responsible for deciding which of the articles submitted should be published. The Editor-in-Chief may be guided by the policies of the journal's editorial board and subject to legal requirements regarding libel, copyright infringement, and plagiarism. The Editor-in-Chief may consult with other editors or reviewers in making this decision.

Review of Manuscripts

Each manuscript is initially evaluated by the editor/co-editor and may be checked using appropriate software to ensure originality. After passing the initial screening, the manuscript is forwarded to two referees for blind peer review. Each reviewer provides recommendations to accept, revise, or reject the manuscript. The review process generally takes at least one month, depending on the quality of the article.

Disclosure and Conflicts of Interest

Unpublished materials disclosed in a submitted manuscript must not be used in an editor’s own research without written consent from the author.

Fair Play

Manuscripts are evaluated solely on intellectual merit without regard to the authors’ race, gender, sexual orientation, religious belief, ethnic origin, citizenship, or political philosophy.
