3. The journal uses the double blind review system, that is, both the referees and the authors remain anonymous to each other. Therefore, the authors are asked to avoid including information in the text that may uncover their identity.
   
   
4. Authors are responsible for obtaining permissions from copyright holders for reproducing any previously published material.
   
   
5. The use of AI tools in the preparation of the manuscript should be acknowledged by the authors. The required information should include the type of tool and the scope of its use. The information may be provided in any part of the manuscript (e.g. in a footnote or in the main body of the paper). The responsibility for the content submitted is authors' entirely.

Counteracting the cases of ghostwriting and guest authorship

After the acceptance of the paper for publication the author receives an agreement to sign which confirms his/her own authorship and the non-infringement of rights of other persons. The Advisory Board declares that all the possible cases of unethical behaviour will be disclosed.

Recommended style of bibliography

Authors are asked to compile their bibliography in keeping with the following guidelines:

1. In the description of a publication the basic separation sign is a dot. We write page numbers after a colon, and separate the collective publication from its fragment with a dash.
   
   
2. We place the initial of the first name followed by a dot after the author’s surname; we do not separate the initials of names of the same author/editor with a space; we separate two authors/editors with a comma. Additional information concerning the authors is placed in brackets after the surname(s).
   
   
3. We write the title of the primary item (a book or a journal) in italics; the remaining titles (of an article, chapter, entry in a collective publication) are left in the Roman type. In titles of English books and articles we use lowercase letters.
   
   
4. Title in languages other than English should not be translated. Titles in languages that do not use a Latin alphabet must be transliterated.
   
   
5. Numerical data supplementing the title of the journal are written with Arabic digits and separated with a dot.
   
   
6. All the additional information concerning a book is placed after the title, in square brackets.
   
   
7. We write name of the place of publication and name of the publisher in the language of the original; several places of publication are separated with a comma; the name of the country or state specifying the place of publication is placed in brackets after the name of the city.
   
   
8. Footnotes should not contain references to bibliographical information – this should be inserted in the continuous text, e.g. Harwood (2005), (Schmidt 1990), (Puzynina 1997: 22), (Nedjalkov 1988: 411; Maslov 1988: 72–73, 76; Hewson, Bubenik 1997; Heine, Kuteva 2006). 
   
   
9. References should include all the sources cited in the paper. Sources which have not been cited should not be referenced.
