The Editorial Board provides editorial and copywriting management. It brings its expertise to select articles based on the opinions formulated by the reviewers. As such, it steers the entire evaluation process. More generally, it participates in defining the strategic direction of the review, which it is responsible for putting into practice. It also promotes the journal and guarantees its quality. It works under the joint authority of the editor-in-chief for the editorial part and the director of publication for the logistical and management parts. Its members are appointed for a term of four years, renewable, and are not remunerated.
Procedures for the appointment and renewal of Associate Editors
Associate editors are appointed by the Editor-in-Chief. Candidates may be nominated by qualified members of the editorial team or by open application. In the absence of potential candidates, the Editorial Board may decide to make an open call for candidates. Regardless of the solicitation procedure, candidates are asked to send the Editor-in-Chief a reasoned proposal including a cover letter, a CV and an institutional commitment (not mandatory). All candidates with the required profile for the position may apply. The editorial committee selects the applications to be considered. It may gather any information on potential candidates that its members consider useful, in strict confidence. Qualified candidates may be invited to interview with the Editor-in-Chief and possibly the Editorial Board. Once the selection process for qualified candidates is complete, the Editor-in-Chief appoints the new Associate Editor (if there is consensus among the other active Associate Editors) for a three-year term (renewable once), normally beginning on January 1 following the appointment. Associate Editors are not paid.
