Guest
editors play a vital role in acquiring content and leading the review process
for special issue publications. The AOCV welcome you as a guest editor in two
ways:
1.
AOCV invite you as an expert in your specific field of research.
2.
You can submit a resume and a proposal for a special issue to a
journal – the senior editor will approve or reject it after consulting with
the editorial board.
A
special issue focuses on a specific area of research that has a broad appeal
and falls within the aims and scopes of the journal. It also provides an
excellent opportunity to review a particular theme, examine previously
unaddressed aspects, propose and develop new approaches, exchange
perspectives and encourage new lines of research. The key benefits of special
issue are: Increased distribution to a wider audience, Additional content for
subscribers, Available electronic format, and Increased citations. Meanwhile,
it should be noted that AOCV uses an online submission and review system. The
submission and peer review of special issue papers must be managed using this
system.
