Double-Blind Refereeing System:

“Double-Blind Refereeing System" is applied in Arete Journal of Political Philosophy. The evaluation process is carried out in such a way that the authors of the article and the referees who supervise the article do not know each other's identities. The identities of the referees who refuse to evaluate the article are also hidden.

Due to the principle of "Blind Refereeing", the communication between the referees and the author is carried out through the Dergipark system, not among themselves and directly, but through the Editorial Unit. Articles are sent to three referees. Referees are given 15 days to accept or reject the article review invitation. If the referee refuses the review, a new referee is determined. If he accepts, the anonymous text of the article and the review report are sent. The time given to the referees to review the article is 15 days. However, if this period is insufficient, a second 15-day period is given. The refereeing process continues until 2 positive or 2 negative reports are received about the article. The referees may approve or disapprove of the articles, suggest corrections or suggest corrections and want to see them again.
