Publication ethics

The editorial team of "Journal of Public and Municipal Administration" adheres to ethic standards of scientific publications and is guided by "Code of ethics of scientific publications" which is developed and adopted by Committee on ethics of scientific publications.

Principles of professional ethics in editor and publisher's activity

In the activity the editor is responsible for disclosure of copyright works following the basic principles:

• In making decision of the publication the editor may be guided by authenticity of the data and scientific significance of the work.
• An editor at any time evaluate manuscripts for their intellectual content without regard to race, gender, religious belief, ethnic origin, citizenship, or political philosophy of the authors.
• The editor and any editorial staff must not disclose any information about a submitted manuscript to anyone other than the corresponding author, reviewers, potential reviewers, other editorial advisers, and the publisher, as appropriate.
• Unpublished materials disclosed in a submitted manuscript must not be used in an editor's own research without the express written consent of the author.
• The editor should not admit information to be published if there is sufficient evidence to believe it to be plagiarism.
• The editor and the publisher shouldn't leave complaints concerning manuscripts and published works without answer; in case of conflict situation they should take actions to solve it.
• According to the given principles all manuscripts are checked for plagiarism; should have the list of sources used, sources of financial support (if present); the articles published in other journals are not admitted.

The author should be guided by the following principles:

• The author (authors) of articles should present an accurate account of the work performed as well as an objective discussion of its significance. Underlying data should be represented accurately in the paper. A paper should contain sufficient detail and references to permit others to replicate the work. Fraudulent or knowingly inaccurate statements constitute unethical behavior and are unacceptable.
• The authors should ensure that they have written entirely original works, and if the authors have used the work and/or words of others that this has been appropriately cited or quoted.
• The author should not in general publish manuscripts describing essentially the same research in more than one journal or primary publication. Submitting the same manuscript to more than one journal concurrently constitutes unethical publishing behaviour and is unacceptable.
• Proper acknowledgment of the work of others must always be given. Authors should cite publications that have been influential in determining the nature of the reported work.
• Authorship should be limited to those who have made a significant contribution to the conception, design, execution, or interpretation of the reported study. All those who have made significant contributions should be listed as co-authors. Where there are others who have participated in certain substantive aspects of the research project, they should be acknowledged or listed as contributors.
• The corresponding author should ensure that all appropriate co-authors and no inappropriate co-authors are included on the paper, and that all co-authors have seen and approved the final version of the paper and have agreed to its submission for publication.
• When an author discovers a significant error or inaccuracy in his/her own published work, it is the author's obligation to promptly notify the journal editor or publisher and cooperate with the editor to retract or correct the paper.

Duties of authors:

• Authors should know about the external review of the manuscript;
• authors should confirm their contribution to the article;
• authors should confirm authenticity and accuracy of data;
• authors should promptly correct the pointed errors and inaccuracy.

• When deciding on the articles publication the editorial staff adheres to uniform principles.
• The Editorial Board guarantees high quality of the published articles. It publishes corrections and refutations if necessary.
• The Editorial Board takes all measures to avoid plagiarism.

Principles of professional ethics in reviewer's activity

• Any manuscripts received for review must be treated as confidential documents. They must not be shown to or discussed with others except as authorized by the editor.
• Reviews should be conducted objectively. Personal criticism of the author is inappropriate. Referees should express their views clearly with supporting arguments.
• Privileged information or ideas obtained through peer review must be kept confidential and not used for personal advantage.

Publication ethics

The editorial team of "Journal of Public and Municipal Administration" adheres to ethic standards of scientific publications and is guided by "Code of ethics of scientific publications" which is developed and adopted by Committee on ethics of scientific publications.

Principles of professional ethics in editor and publisher's activity

In the activity the editor is responsible for disclosure of copyright works following the basic principles:

• In making decision of the publication the editor may be guided by authenticity of the data and scientific significance of the work.
• An editor at any time evaluate manuscripts for their intellectual content without regard to race, gender, religious belief, ethnic origin, citizenship, or political philosophy of the authors.
• The editor and any editorial staff must not disclose any information about a submitted manuscript to anyone other than the corresponding author, reviewers, potential reviewers, other editorial advisers, and the publisher, as appropriate.
• Unpublished materials disclosed in a submitted manuscript must not be used in an editor's own research without the express written consent of the author.
• The editor should not admit information to be published if there is sufficient evidence to believe it to be plagiarism.
• The editor and the publisher shouldn't leave complaints concerning manuscripts and published works without answer; in case of conflict situation they should take actions to solve it.
• According to the given principles all manuscripts are checked for plagiarism; should have the list of sources used, sources of financial support (if present); the articles published in other journals are not admitted.

The author should be guided by the following principles:

• The author (authors) of articles should present an accurate account of the work performed as well as an objective discussion of its significance. Underlying data should be represented accurately in the paper. A paper should contain sufficient detail and references to permit others to replicate the work. Fraudulent or knowingly inaccurate statements constitute unethical behavior and are unacceptable.
• The authors should ensure that they have written entirely original works, and if the authors have used the work and/or words of others that this has been appropriately cited or quoted.
• The author should not in general publish manuscripts describing essentially the same research in more than one journal or primary publication. Submitting the same manuscript to more than one journal concurrently constitutes unethical publishing behaviour and is unacceptable.
• Proper acknowledgment of the work of others must always be given. Authors should cite publications that have been influential in determining the nature of the reported work.
• Authorship should be limited to those who have made a significant contribution to the conception, design, execution, or interpretation of the reported study. All those who have made significant contributions should be listed as co-authors. Where there are others who have participated in certain substantive aspects of the research project, they should be acknowledged or listed as contributors.
• The corresponding author should ensure that all appropriate co-authors and no inappropriate co-authors are included on the paper, and that all co-authors have seen and approved the final version of the paper and have agreed to its submission for publication.
• When an author discovers a significant error or inaccuracy in his/her own published work, it is the author's obligation to promptly notify the journal editor or publisher and cooperate with the editor to retract or correct the paper.

Duties of authors:

• Authors should know about the external review of the manuscript;
• authors should confirm their contribution to the article;
