Implementation of Enhanced Reviewer Guidelines, Evaluation Criteria, and Revised Article Evaluation Form
To continuously elevate the transparency, academic rigor, and operational efficiency of the journal, Association of Legal & Political Studies (ALPS), in its capacity as the owner and primary publisher, has officially introduced the new Reviewer Guidelines and Manuscript Evaluation Criteria.
These comprehensive frameworks have been established to achieve a dual purpose:
- For Reviewers: To provide a structured and standardized benchmark, ensuring that all manuscript evaluations are executed in strict alignment with the journal's core editorial policies and quality standards.
- For Authors: To offer a transparent roadmap that enables contributors to systematically prepare and align their manuscripts with the journal's specific expectations and evaluation metrics prior to submission.
Additionally, ALPS has comprehensively updated the Article Evaluation Form to seamlessly integrate these refined criteria. Please be informed that this revised evaluation form will officially become effective for all peer-review workflows starting July 1, 2026, onwards.
The updated guidelines, criteria, and form details are now available across the respective sections of the journal's website. We highly encourage all authors, reviewers, and editorial stakeholders to review these updates to ensure full compliance ahead of the upcoming transition.
Sincerely,
Associate Professor Dr. Thanaporn SRIYAKUL
President, Association of Legal & Political Studies (Thailand)
