Submission guidelines and peer review process

Every submission should be sent to the managing editor of the YIHL, James Patrick Sexton (J.Sexton@asser.nl), and each article should be in conformity with the guidelines, available here. The YIHL peer-review criteria is available here.

A submission will first be sent to the Editorial Board to see whether it fits the scope of the YIHL and whether it is of sufficient quality to be sent to the peer reviewers. If so, it will be sent anonymously to two external peer reviewers. On the basis of the reports of these two reviewers, the Editorial Board will decide whether the author will be allowed to revise the submission, taking into account the comments of the reviewers. After revision, the Editorial Board will review the submission again. Only then will the final decision on whether or not the submission will be published in the YIHL will be made.
