The review of articles is coordinated and organized by the editor-in-chief, members of the editorial board, and is carried out by invited reviewers-leading experts in the relevant industry. The decision to choose a reviewer is made by the editor-in-chief or a member of the editorial board, who is assigned such a function by the editor-in-chief.

A database of scientific reviewers is constantly being formed. The reviewer, as a rule, has knowledge in the relevant subdiscipline field, a scientific degree (candidate or Doctor of science). The review process lasts four weeks.

In the case of a special, thematic issue of the Journal, the functions of coordinating and organizing the review procedure can be assigned to the invited editor.

The Editorial Board does not provide the authors with information (first names, last names, addresses, etc.) about the reviewers (except in cases of receipt of legally justified requests from authorized state bodies). The names of the authors may become known to the reviewers in the event of a successful publication.

The most important corrections and edits are agreed with the author.

4.2. Confidentiality, ethical principles of the reviewer

The reviewer is prohibited from using the information contained in the reviewed work for personal purposes or for the benefit of third parties. The review is a confidential document.

Reviewers may not be the author and co-author of the work. The reviewer may not be the supervisor of the author-a post-graduate student, doctoral student, or candidate of an academic degree.

The reviewer may refuse the review procedure if there is a clear conflict of interest or other reasons that may lead to a violation of publication ethics. A reviewer who, in his opinion, does not have sufficient qualifications to evaluate the manuscript, or cannot be objective, should inform the editor-in-chief about this with a request to exclude him from the review process of this manuscript (within 3 days from the date of receipt of the article).

If the reviewer does not have enough time for the review procedure, he must inform the Editor-in-Chief and the editorial board of the Journal in a timely manner (within 3 days from the date of receipt of the article).

The reviewer must write an objective review and make constructive comments. Argue your position. The reviewer's opinion should be clear, and ambiguity is unacceptable. It is unacceptable to show hostility, insult the author and his co-authors. The reviewer avoids evaluating the author's political, religious, and other personal views. Only the scientific position of the author and his co-authors is evaluated.

The review is aimed at evaluating the theoretical and research contribution of the author, clarifying and improving the conceptual, empirical, methodological and analytical aspects of his article.

The article is evaluated by the reviewer on the basis of the relevance, the fundamental nature of the work, the applied nature of the research, and the problematic novelty of the topic.

4.3. Verification of the reliability of information sources

The reviewer is obliged to focus on verifying the reliability of the sources of information, the information that the author cites in his work.

The reviewers, the editor-in-chief and the editorial board reserve the right to request from the authors the raw (initial) data of the study, to request empirical data sets, as well as details on the methodological procedure.
