DUTIES OF EDITORS
The editor-in-chief of Confluente is responsible for deciding which of the articles submitted to the journal should be published. He/she may confer with other editors or reviewers in making this decision.
Editors evaluate manuscripts for their intellectual content without regard to race, gender, sexual orientation, religious belief, ethnic origin, citizenship, or political philosophy of the authors.
DUTIES OF REVIEWERS
Reviewers assist the editor-in-chief in making editorial decisions. They also assist (through editorial communication) authors to improve their papers.
Reviews should be conducted objectively. Referees should express their opinion clearly and with supporting arguments.
Reviewers should identify relevant published work that hasn’t been cited by the authors. Any observation of this kind should be supported with the relevant citation.
DUTIES OF AUTHORS
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.
An 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 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
