Peer Review Process

DYNAMICS Journal of Humanities and Social Sciences applies a double-blind peer review process to ensure the quality, validity, and academic integrity of all published articles.

1. Initial Screening

All submitted manuscripts are first evaluated by the editorial team to assess their relevance to the journal’s focus and scope, compliance with author guidelines, and overall academic quality. Manuscripts that do not meet these criteria may be rejected at this stage.

2. Double-Blind Peer Review

Manuscripts that pass the initial screening are sent to at least two independent reviewers with expertise in the relevant field. The identities of both authors and reviewers are kept confidential throughout the review process.

3. Review Criteria

Reviewers evaluate manuscripts based on:

  • Originality and contribution to the field

  • Relevance to humanities and social sciences

  • Methodological rigor and clarity

  • Quality of analysis and discussion

  • Organization and clarity of presentation

  • Appropriateness of references

4. Review Outcomes

5. Revision Process

Authors are required to revise their manuscripts according to reviewers’ comments and submit a revised version within the specified timeframe. The revised manuscript may be sent back to reviewers for further evaluation if necessary.
