Peer Review Process

Jurnal Administrasi Publik (JAP) implements a peer review process. All articles submitted to JAP will be reviewed in a closed manner (blind review) by peer reviewers. In general, each article will be reviewed by one to two reviewers. The responses from these reviewers will be used as a basis for the Editor to determine whether an article can be accepted, accepted if revised (accepted with major/minor revision), or rejected. An article is rejected for publication due to various considerations, including the article does not comply with the scope of Public Policy; Public Management; Public Services; Bureaucracy; Community Empowerment; Local Government; Politics; Government Governance, and the scientific side of the article is inadequate to be classified as a scientific paper, fundamental methodological errors, or because the author refuses to carry out the suggestions for improvement given by the reviewer without a logical basis. All articles submitted will be checked for plagiarism elements using anti-plagiarism software (Turnitin).
