This website is strictly archival and is no longer updated. As of January 1, 2026, the official and sole website of the journal is the new OJS platform: https://journals.uafm.edu.pl/stp. Current publication ethics, peer-review policies, and submission guidelines are located exclusively at the new website. Submissions via email are no longer accepted – all manuscripts must be submitted solely through the OJS system.

1) A double-blind peer review model applies. (Authors and Reviewers do not know each other’s identities.)

2) The Editorial Office appoints two independent reviewers to evaluate each article.

Each reviewer is:
– an expert in a given field of science,
– not affiliated with the Bezpieczeństwo. Teoria i Praktyka/ Security. Theory and Practice Editorial Office or Editorial Board,
– from outside the research unit affiliated with the author of the publication.

3) The Editorial Office is responsible for selecting the reviewers. Reviewers are selected based on:
– research interests,
– scientific achievements,
– documented competence in the field of science to which the text belongs.

4) When appointing a reviewer, the Editorial Office takes into account the principle of preventing conflicts of interest. If a conflict of interest is suspected, the reviewer is obligated to decline the review. See the Journal’s Conflict of Interest Policy.

5) A selected reviewer may decline to review (e.g., due to inability to meet review deadlines or the article’s topic being incompatible with their research interests). In such a case, they are obligated to immediately notify the Editorial Office.

6) The review is always in writing. A review form is used.

7) The Editorial Office always informs authors of the results of the review of the submitted manuscript.

8) The Editorial Team and reviewers adhere to the principle of confidentiality and do not disclose any information about submitted articles or review results to unauthorized persons.

9) The names of reviewers for individual articles and issues of the journal are not disclosed. At the end of the calendar year, a list of reviewers collaborating with the journal in a given year is published on the website (without assigning reviewers to articles).
