• Authors’ responsibilities

Editors, authors, and reviewers will also adhere to the ethics-related instructions and policies imposed by the Editorial Team of Security, Economy and Law.

For all parties involved in the act of publishing (the author(s), the journal editor(s), the peer reviewers, the society, and the publisher), it is necessary to agree upon standards of expected ethical behaviour.
