From the peer reviewers:

The following considerations stand out:

The Editor and the Editorial Committee of the journal will invite the researchers most related to the area of the submitted works. However, if the peer considers that he or she does not meet the profile, does not have the time, or presents a conflict of interest to evaluate a document, he or she must let it be known so that the Editorial Committee assigns another person to evaluate the work.

The evaluator must present a concept that is as clear, objective and rigorous as possible, so that the Editorial Committee can make the decision on the acceptance or rejection of a document.

The documents sent to the evaluators, by the Journal Ius et tribunalis They are confidential and, therefore, their review is limited to evaluative purposes. Citing these as unpublished manuscripts or using their contents before publication constitutes inappropriate and unauthorized use.

Referees: The evaluation committee is made up of professionals with extensive experience and academic recognition in the topics discussed in each article. The evaluation criteria are: originality of the content; conceptual rigor; methodological problems; clarity and coherence, both in the argument and in the exposition; the quality of sources and references; contributions to knowledge; proper preparation of the summary; title of relevance and conclusions. This ensures that articles published in Ius et tribunalis are of excellent quality.

Duties of peers:

Ius et tribunalis recommends that arbitrators see the COPE Ethical Guidelines for Peer Reviewers

Contribution to editorial decisions: Peer review helps the editor in making editorial decisions and the author to improve the writing and scientific quality of the document. Peer review is a key component of scholarly communication and lies at the core of the scientific method. Ius et tribunalis shares the opinion that researchers who wish to contribute to publications have the obligation to participate fairly in peer review processes.

Punctuality: Any selected referee who does not feel qualified to review the article must promptly inform that it is impossible for them to carry out their review, informing the editor of their decision.

Confidentiality: All manuscripts received for review must be treated as confidential documents. They should not be presented to or discussed with third parties except as authorized by the publisher. The arbitration process is carried out in the double-blind peer review modality, guaranteeing the confidentiality and anonymity of the authors and referees. In case of discrepancy between one of the two evaluators, the text will be sent to a third referee, whose decision will define its publication.

Objectivity standards: Comments must be carried out objectively. Personal criticism of the author is inappropriate. Arbitrators must express their points of view clearly, supported by arguments.

Appropriate recognition of sources: Reviewers should identify relevant published works that have not been cited by the authors. Any statement, observation, derivation, or argument that has been previously recorded must be accompanied by the corresponding citation. A reviewer should also bring the editor's attention to any substantial or partial similarity between the manuscript under consideration and any other published document of which they are aware.

Disclosure of conflicts of interest: Unpublished materials revealed in an article submitted in the selection process must not be used in the reviewers' own research without the express written consent of the author. Privileged information or ideas obtained through peer review must be kept confidential and will not be used for personal gain. Reviewers should not evaluate articles in which they have conflicts of interest that result from competitive, collaborative or other relationships or connections with any of the authors, companies or institutions related to the texts to be evaluated.
