How our peer review process works
The Bath Student Journal of Society and Social Change uses a ‘double-blind’ review process for all submissions.
This means that your identity will be unknown to the reviewer and vice versa. When you submit an article, one of our editors will anonymise your paper and send it out for peer review.
Your reviewer will be a PhD student in the Faculty of Humanities and Social Sciences, who is knowledgeable about the topic of your article.
The purpose of reviewing articles is to assess their academic and scientific quality, and to provide the author with supportive feedback and suggestions for revisions before publication.
