Manuscript Publication Ethics

Publication ethics in the Welfare State Law Journal is a very important component in the development of a coherent and respected knowledge network. This is a direct reflection of the quality of the work of the authors and the institutions that support them. Therefore, it is important to agree on an expected ethical standard for all parties involved in the publication of the manuscript, such as authors, editors, reviewers, publishers, and the public. Legal Studies Study Program, Faculty of Law, Jember Islamic University as publisher and the Welfare State Journal Editorial Board carries out all stages of publication and recognizes ethical behavior and other responsibilities. 

Publication Decisions

The Welfare State Law Journal Editorial Board is responsible for deciding which manuscripts should be published. Editors may be guided by the policies of the Editorial Board and limited by the legal requirements in effect at that time relating to defamation, copyright infringement, and plagiarism. Editors may negotiate with other editors and reviewers in making publication decisions.

The Welfare State Law Journal Editorial Board evaluates manuscripts without regard to the author's race, gender, sexual orientation, religious beliefs, ethnic origin, nationality, politics or ideology.
