Peer Review Process

Editorial assessment, independent peer review, revision, and publication decisions at IURIS NOTITIA: Jurnal Ilmu Hukum.

In the manuscript review process, IURIS NOTITIA: JURNAL ILMU HUKUM involves the author, editor, section editor, and reviewers. The journal implements a single-blind peer review model: reviewers know the identity of the authors, but authors are not informed of the reviewers' identities.

Review Process Flow

STEP 01

Initial Editorial Check

Each submitted manuscript is first checked by the editor for alignment with the journal's focus, scope, and author guidelines. If the manuscript is considered suitable, a section editor is assigned to proceed with the editorial process. Manuscripts considered unsuitable may be returned to the author without external review.

STEP 02

Reviewer Assignment

The section editor appoints at least two reviewers to evaluate the manuscript's substance, novelty, and scholarly contribution. The review stage generally takes 1–3 weeks. Reviewers assess the manuscript using the criteria outlined in the Reviewer's Article Evaluation Form.

STEP 03

Review and Feedback

Reviewers may recommend minor revision, major revision, or rejection and provide comments to support their assessment. The section editor communicates the feedback to the author. If the author does not respond within the stated revision period, the editorial team may send a reminder; where necessary, another reviewer may be appointed to keep the process moving.

STEP 04

Revision and Re-review

After a revised manuscript is submitted, the section editor reassesses it. Where necessary, the manuscript may be returned to reviewers for further assessment. The final decision to accept or reject rests with the editor, section editor, or editor-in-chief, according to the journal's editorial workflow.

Review Timeline

In general, the process from submission to publication takes approximately 5–9 weeks. It may take longer depending on the complexity of revisions and the response time of authors and reviewers.
