Peer Review Process

Manuscripts are submitted through the Open Journal Systems (OJS) platform, maintained by the University of Sarajevo, School of Economics and Business, and available at https://journal.efsa.unsa.ba/. The submission process begins with the creation of a user account, after which authors are guided through an automated procedure with detailed instructions. All communication with editors and reviewers is conducted exclusively via the OJS platform, ensuring transparency, secure archiving, and equal treatment. Submissions must be original, unpublished, written in English and prepared in accordance with the journal’s author guidelines.

The Editorial Board is committed to a timely, fair, and constructive double-blind peer-review process, in which the identities of both authors and reviewers are concealed. Editorial decisions are based on evaluations provided by at least two independent reviewers and all referee reports are shared transparently with authors.

Each article is assigned full bibliographic information, including DOI and pagination, and is available for citation upon publication. From 2026 onward, the journal publishes three integrated issues per year, in March, July, and November. Operating under a free and open-access policy, the journal actively promotes all published articles and encourages authors to disseminate their work through personal networks, academic platforms and social media.
