For Reviewers

Become a Reviewer

Peer review is what makes a journal worth publishing in. BORJSS is building a panel of reviewers across the social sciences — register your expertise and we will approach you when a manuscript matches it.

Why review for us

  • Formal recognition

    An acknowledgement letter for your institutional record, and optional credit on your ORCID profile.

  • Early sight of new work

    Read research in your field before it is published, and shape it through your assessment.

  • A route to the board

    Most of our editorial board members began as reviewers for the journal.

  • You control the load

    Tell us your capacity, and decline any invitation without needing a reason.
