Publisher

At its launch, the journal was published jointly by the Institute for International Cooperation Development and The London Academy of Science and Business. The publishing responsibility was subsequently assumed by The London Academy of Science and Business, which now serves as the publisher of record and is responsible for the technical production, online hosting and maintenance of the journal website.

The Institute for International Cooperation Development remains a founding institution of the journal and continues to support its academic development, while the publishing and administrative responsibilities are carried out exclusively by The London Academy of Science and Business.

The publisher provides organisational and technical support for the operation of the journal, including editorial management infrastructure, copyediting and publication services. Editorial decisions, peer review and acceptance of manuscripts are conducted independently by the Editor-in-Chief and the Editorial Board.

The journal operates in accordance with internationally recognised standards of scholarly publishing and maintains a clear separation between editorial decision-making and the publisher’s administrative and technical functions.
