Publication Process

The publication process of LexSociety: Journal of Law and Social Society is designed to ensure that all submitted manuscripts undergo a rigorous evaluation to maintain the highest standards of academic quality and relevance. Below is an overview of the key steps in our publication process:

Submission

Authors are invited to submit their original research manuscripts through our online submission system. Manuscripts should adhere to the journal’s submission guidelines, which include specific formatting and citation requirements.

Initial Screening

Upon submission, each manuscript is reviewed by the editorial team for completeness and compliance with the journal’s scope and guidelines. If the manuscript does not meet the criteria, it will be rejected at this stage.

Peer Review

Manuscripts that pass the initial screening are sent for blind peer review. At least two independent experts in the relevant field of law and social sciences evaluate the manuscript for originality, significance, methodology, and clarity. Peer reviewers provide constructive feedback, and based on their recommendations, the manuscript may be accepted, revised, or rejected.

Revisions

If the manuscript requires revisions, authors are notified and are given the opportunity to address reviewer comments. Authors must submit a revised version along with a detailed response letter outlining how the feedback has been incorporated.

Final Decision

After reviewing the revised manuscript, the editorial team makes the final decision. Manuscripts that meet the journal's standards for quality and relevance will be accepted for publication.

Publication

Accepted manuscripts are copy-edited for clarity, language, and consistency. After final approval from the author, the manuscript is formatted according to the journal’s style and published in an upcoming issue. Articles are made available to the public through our open-access platform.

LexSociety is committed to upholding the integrity and transparency of the publication process, ensuring that all research contributes meaningfully to the field of law and social sciences.
