Manuscript Processing and Submission Closing

Dear Authors and Readers,

We would like to inform you that our journal is currently experiencing a very high volume of submissions. At present, hundreds of manuscripts are awaiting desk evaluation and peer review. As a result, both the initial screening process and the subsequent review stages may take longer than usual.

We sincerely appreciate your patience and understanding during this period. We fully recognize the time, effort, and trust that authors invest in submitting their work to our journal, and we remain committed to handling each manuscript with care, fairness, and academic rigor. Our editorial team is working diligently to manage the submissions as efficiently as possible while maintaining the quality of the review process.

To help us manage the current workload and ensure proper attention to all manuscripts already in the system, the submission portal will be temporarily closed starting 1 April and will be reopened on 1 June 2026. This measure is intended to allow the editorial team and reviewers to focus on the manuscripts currently under consideration.

We are deeply grateful for the continued interest in our journal and for the confidence that scholars place in us as a venue for their research. We encourage authors with ongoing submissions to remain assured that their manuscripts are still being processed, although the timeline may be longer than expected.

Thank you for your understanding, support, and continued contribution to our academic community.

Warm regards,
The Editorial Team
