Pre-publication peer-review forms the basis of how scholarly journals assess whether an article is suitable for publication
Humanities has used a single blind peer-review approach, where the reviewer identities are not known to authors
For papers submitted after 31 December 2015, reviewers will no longer be informed of the names of the authors who have submitted a manuscript until a final decision has been made. We believe that this decision will reduce bias and help emerging scholars to receive a fair review
Summary
We would like to take this opportunity to thank all the past and present anonymous reviewers who have contributed to this peer-reviewing process and continue to make this a first-rate scholarly journal.
