Publication ethics Editorial board duties They constantly work to ensure the high quality of the articles. The manuscripts submitted to the journal are merely evaluated based on their intellectual contents. The nationality of the authors, religion, gender, ethnic origin and their political orientation are not considered for the evaluation of manuscripts.
