The editorial board of the scientific journal “Eurasian Union of Scientists. Series: historical, political and sociological sciences" is guided in its work by the international ethical rules of scientific publications, including the rules of decency, confidentiality, supervision of publications, consideration of possible conflicts of interest, etc. In its activities the editorial board follows the recommendations of the Committee on Publication Ethics, and also relies on the valuable experience of reputable international journals and publishers.

RESPONSIBILITIES OF AUTHORS

Reporting standards

We expect the authors to present reliable results of the work done, as well as an objective discussion of the significance of the study. Data underlying the research should be clearly stated in writing. The article should contain sufficient information for verification and repetition of experiments by other researchers. Fraudulent or knowingly false statements amount to unethical behavior and are unacceptable.

Data access and storage

Authors may be asked to provide background data for editorial review. They should be prepared to provide public access to such data, if possible, and in any event should be prepared to retain the original materials for a reasonable period of time after their publication.

Originality and plagiarism

Authors should submit only original works. When using textual or graphic information obtained from the work of others, links to the corresponding publications or the written permission of the author are required. Any kind of plagiarism is considered unethical behavior and is unacceptable.

Multiple, repetitive and competing publications

Authors should indicate that their work is being published for the first time. If the elements of the manuscript were previously published in another article, the authors are obliged to refer to the earlier work and indicate what is the essential difference between the new work and the previous one. Verbatim copying of one's own works and their paraphrasing is unacceptable; they can only be used as a basis for new conclusions. Submitting an article to more than one journal at the same time is considered unethical behavior and is unacceptable.

Confirmation of sources

Authors are required to acknowledge the contributions of others who have influenced the nature of the research presented. The presence of bibliographic references to the works used is obligatory. Information obtained privately, through conversation, correspondence or discussion with third parties, should not be used without obtaining open written permission from their source.

 

Authorship of the work

Authorship should be limited to those who have made significant contributions to the concept, design, execution, or interpretation of the claimed research. All those who have made significant contributions should be listed as co-authors. Those who took part in some significant aspects of the research project should be shown in the list of project participants. The author must ensure that the names of all coauthors and project participants are included in the lists of coauthors and participants, and that all coauthors have read the final version of the scientific work and approved it, and also gave their consent to its publication.

Humanity Principles for Animals

The editors ask the authors to adhere to the principles of bioethics when studying animal objects.

Disclosures and Conflicts of Interest

All authors should disclose in their work information about any financial or other significant conflicts of interest that may affect the results of the study or their interpretation. All sources of financial support for the project must be disclosed.

Substantial errors in published works

If the author discovers a material error or inaccuracy in his published work, he must immediately notify the editor or publisher of the journal and provide them with assistance in eliminating or correcting the error. If an editor or publisher learns from a third party that a published work contains material errors, the author must immediately remove or correct them, or provide the editorial board with proof of the correctness of the original article.

RESPONSIBILITIES OF THE EDITORIAL

Decision to publish an article

Submission of an article for consideration implies that it contains new non-trivial scientific results obtained by the authors, which have not been previously published anywhere. Each article is peer reviewed. Peer review is carried out according to a "double blind" scheme, when both the reviewer and the author do not know each other. Experts have every opportunity to freely express motivated critical remarks regarding the level and clarity of the presentation of the material presented, the novelty and reliability of the results. The recommendations of the reviewers are the basis for making the final decision on the publication of the article. Responsibility for the decision on publication lies entirely with the editorial staff of the journal. The editors decide on publication, guided by the policy of the journal, taking into account the current legislation in the field of copyright. The editorial board evaluates manuscripts solely for their scientific content, without regard to race, gender, sexual orientation, religious beliefs, ethnicity, citizenship and political views of the authors. The article, if accepted for publication, is placed in the public domain; copyrights are reserved by the authors.

Confidentiality

The editor and all editorial staff may not disclose information about the submitted works to anyone other than the respective authors, reviewers, other editorial consultants and, if necessary, the publisher. The editor and editorial staff are not allowed to use unpublished materials used in the submitted manuscript in their own research without the written consent of the author.

Conflict of interest and resolution of ethical conflicts

In the event of a conflict of interest as a result of a competitive relationship, collaboration, or other relationship and relationship with one of the authors, companies, or institutions associated with the submitted manuscripts, the editor submits the manuscript for review to another member of the editorial board. Editors should seek all participants in the process to disclose existing competing interests. If a competition of interests was identified after publication of the article, the editorial board is obliged to ensure the publication of the amendments. When filing an ethical complaint about a submitted manuscript or published article, the editor must use reasonable retaliation, in consultation with the publisher (or the public). Any report of the fact of unethical behavior will be considered, even if it came years after the publication of the article. If the complaint is supported, the publication of the corresponding corrections, denials or apologies follows.

 

RESPONSIBILITIES OF REVIEWERS

Contribution to editorial decisions

Peer review assists the editor in making editorial decisions and, through the collaboration of the editor and the author, can help the author improve his or her work.

Promptness

Any reviewer selected to evaluate the work who believes that his qualifications are insufficient to review the research presented in the scientific work, or knows that the speed of its review will be too slow, should notify the editor and abandon the review process.

Confidentiality

Any manuscript submitted for examination should be treated as a confidential document. It is unacceptable to show it to other reviewers or discuss it with other experts without the prior permission of the editor-in-chief.

Objectivity standards

Reviews of scientific papers must be objective. Personal criticism of the author is inappropriate. Reviewers are required to express their views clearly and reasonably.

Confirmation of sources

Peer reviewers should identify relevant published work in peer reviewed material that has not been cited by the authors. Any statements, conclusions or arguments that have already been used previously in any publications should be properly formatted as citations. The reviewer is also obliged to draw the attention of the editor to any significant or partial similarity with any other work with which the reviewer is directly familiar.

Disclosures and Conflicts of Interest

Unpublished materials used in the submitted manuscript should not be used in the reviewer's own research without the written consent of the author. Non-public information or ideas obtained during peer review must remain confidential and not be used for personal gain. Reviewers should not take part in the review and evaluation of manuscripts in which they are personally interested.
