Peer-reviewing process
The journal “Literary Process: Methodology, Names, Trends” applies the double-blind review procedure (the author does not know the name and affiliation of the expert and vice versa). The interaction of authors and reviewers is provided by the Editor-In-Chief, Deputy Editor in Chief, and Executive Editor. Authors and reviewers do not interact directly with each other.
