Publication Ethics Policy


Publication Ethics Policy and Malpractice Statement

The Editors of Folia Orientalia will do their best to counteract bad practices in scholarly writing, making all possible efforts to disclose cases of academic dishonesty concerning fraud authorship, plagiarism, disclosure and conflict of interest, as well as ghostwriting and guest authorship.

The articles where research misconduct has occurred will also be disclosed. Such cases, if documented, will be passed on to the authors’ authorities as well as scientific societies and publishers. Authors are therefore asked to provide necessary details of contributions made to their articles, as well as inform the editors of sources of the publication’s financing (if applicable).

Any work or words of other authors, contributors or sources should be appropriately credited and referenced. All articles not in accordance with these standards will be removed from the publication if malpractice is discovered at any time even after the publication.

Authors submitting the manuscripts to the journal for publication as original articles confirm that their works represent authors’ contributions and have not been copied or plagiarised in whole or in part from other publications without clear citing.

If an author discovers a significant error or inaccuracy in their own published work, it is their obligation to promptly notify the journal editor and cooperate with the editor to retract or correct the article. The editorial board is always willing to publish corrections, clarifications, retractions and apologies when needed.

The editorial board ensures a fair double-blind peer-review of the submitted manuscripts. It also ensures all the information related to the submitted manuscripts to be kept as confidential prior to publishing. The reviewers evaluate manuscripts based on their intellectual content regardless of ethnic origin, gender, sexual
orientation, citizenship, religious beliefs or political philosophy of the authors. They must ensure that all the information related to submitted manuscripts is kept confidential and must report to one of the editors if they are aware of copyright infringement and plagiarism on the author’s side. They must evaluate the submitted works objectively as well as present their opinions in a clear way in the review form. The editorial board has implemented an anti-plagiarism policy. If a reviewer suspects plagiarism, the article will be verified using a plagiarism detection programme.


The journal’s editorial board follows the guidelines of COPE: Committee of Publication Ethics. All persons involved in the publication process must be familiar with the ethical standards of Folia Orientalia.

Peer-review Procedure

Review Process and Reviewers

Peer Review Process

Articles sent to the editorial team of Folia Orientalia journal are first subjected to internal review by the editors-in-chief and the academic secretary. After the primary qualification, the texts are sent to external reviewers (double-blind review). Each article is reviewed by two reviewers specialising in each subject. Texts are sent for review anonymously: the identity of the reviewed author will not be disclosed to reviewers, nor vice versa. The review must contain an explicit conclusion stating whether the article should or should not be accepted for publication.

Papers that have received an approval of both reviewers are qualified for publication. As a result of the review process, authors may be expected to modify their articles according to the recommendations of the reviewers. The editorial board retains a right to publish, to reject or to return an article for modifications. In the event of an ambivalent publishing review, the text is submitted for another evaluation. Articles on which two negative opinions have been passed will not be accepted for publication. The authors of negatively assessed texts will be notified as soon as the reviews reach the editors.
