Review Process

All articles submitted to Indonesian Journal of Sustainability Policy and Technology will be reviewed using the double-blind review method. Reviewers need to be made aware of the authors' identity, and authors are also unaware of the identity of reviewers (double-blind review method). Generally, each article will be reviewed by one to two people.

The response of the reviewers will be the basis for the Editor to conclude
1. Revisions Required
2. Accept Submission
3. Decline Submission

An article was rejected for publication due to various considerations, including:
1. The article does not fit the scope
2. The article does not follow the rules of writing scientific papers / does not follow the author's guidelines 
3. The fundamental methodological errors
4. The author refuses to make suggestions for improvements provided by the reviewer without a logical basis.
5. There are indications of plagiarism of more than 30%
