Guest-edited collections under the same standards as every other issue.

Last reviewed: October 2026 · AIJAMAY · ISSN 3048-9822 (Online)

Editorial oversight

  • The Editor-in-Chief is responsible for the content of every special issue, which must fall within the journal’s aims and scope.
  • Guest editors’ credentials are checked and approved by the Editor-in-Chief before a call for papers is announced.
  • The Editor-in-Chief or a designated board member oversees the guest editors throughout.

Peer review

Special-issue papers receive exactly the same external double-blind review by at least two independent reviewers as regular papers. Papers submitted by guest editors are handled independently by another editor and make up no more than 25% of the special issue.

Labelling and fees

Special-issue articles are clearly labelled with the special-issue title. There are no fees for special-issue authors, as for all AIJAMAY articles.
