Peer Review Policy

All manuscripts submitted to SARE are subject to initial appraisal by the Editors, and, if found suitable for further consideration, to blind peer review by at least two independent, anonymous experts in the field. The reviewers' recommendations are taken into consideration by the Editors in arriving at publication and revision decisions.  Comments from the external reviewers are sent to the authors and they are notified of the journal's decision (accept, accept with revisions, reject). This entire review process will take anywhere between 4 and 6 months after submission of the manuscript. The review process is treated confidentially at all times. The Editors' decision is final.
