Publication Decisions

JRES (Jurnal Riset Ekonomi Syariah) editors are responsible for deciding which articles are submitted to reviewers until the articles are published. However, the article submissions to reviewers are conducted through a blind reviewer process. The editors are guided both by the policy of the journal’s editorial board and by the applicable legal requirements in order to avoid defamation, copyright infringement and plagiarism. The editors can also negotiate with reviewers in making the decision.

Fair Play

When an editor evaluates the submitted manuscripts, he/she must evaluate them without regard to race, gender, sexual orientation, religious beliefs, ethnic origin, nationality, or political philosophy of the authors.

Confidentiality

The chief editor and other editorial staffs must not disclose any information about the submitted manuscripts even when the scripts are submitted to other evaluation staffs. In addition, the editors also must not disclose any information related to reviewers, other editorial advisors, or publisher.

Disclosure and Conflicts of Interest

Any unpublished articles must not be used in editor’s individual research without the express written consent of the author. All information and ideas obtained through peer review process are kept confidential and must not be used for personal interests. Editors do not consider a script based on a particular interest as a competitive, collaborative result or connection with one of the authors, companies, or similar institutions.
 

B. Ethical Guidelines of Reviewers

Promptness

Every selected and qualified reviewer evaluates an article. Besides reviewers’ academic requirements and their capabilities, they must also be able to meet the deadline given in examining the manuscript. If the given deadline will be impossible for a reviewer to evaluate the article, the reviewer must notify the Editor to find other available reviewers.

Confidentiality

Each manuscript received is treated as a confidential document. Every incoming manuscript must not be shown or discussed with other parties.
 
Objectivity Standard

The article evaluation is conducted objectively. Reviewers must express their views clearly with supporting arguments.

 
Acknowledgement of Sources

Reviewers must be able to identify relevant published work. Statement of observation, derivation, or argumentation that had been previously reported must be accompanied by relevant citations. Reviewers must also provide a reminder to the Editor if there is a substantial similarity or overlap between the manuscript under evaluation and the script that has or ever been published.
 

C. Ethical Guidelines of Authors

The author is someone who made a significant contribution in the form of the concept, design, implementation, or interpretation of the reported research. In addition, some other contributing parties can be listed as a co-author. The lead author has made sure that the listed co-author thoroughly deserved and contributed.

Therefore, the authors must ensure that the written article is original. If the authors use the work and / or words of others, the writers must pay attention to exactly how to cite from other references.
