HOW TO SUBMIT AN ARTICLE
Articles should be submitted to the following email address: rioloief@rambler.ru
1. Articles on relevant topics connected with legal and economic issues are accepted. A typical paper for this journal should be more than 8 A4 pages, but should not exceed 20 A4 pages (14 with 1.5 intervals).
2. Authors should submit the following personal information: complete name, place of employment, position, academic degree, academic status and honorary titles, work and home address including postal code, telephone numbers and email address.
3. An article must be accompanied by an abstract in Russian, a list of keywords and a reference list. The information is needed to include the article in the database of the Russian Science Citation Index. The abstract and the list of keywords will be translated into English.
The abstract (of ½ up to 2/3 of A4 page, 14 with 1.5 intervals) is to include the following: a substantiation of the research; a brief description of the article and principle of work; a statement of the main conclusions; a description of personal contribution.
4. Articles having more than 25% of self-citation can not be submitted to the journal.
5. Authors should fully comply with international publication ethics and give their consent to provide open access to the full text of the article in the Internet (download the sample):
- an article should not be submitted to several journals simultaneously. The editorial offices included in international databases easily find it out and blacklist the author;
- an article must be your original work (plagiarism is prohibited);
- it is considered to be unethical to duplicate your prior publications;
- obsolete data should not be used.
So a modern quality research should have a list of references containing articles published not more than one or two years prior the research in question.
