For Authors

Publications accepted for publication

The Press publishes peer-reviewed academic monographs, multi-author monographs, edited collections, source editions, and publications resulting from research projects. Acceptance is based solely on substantive criteria and a positive outcome of the peer-review process.

Documents to submit with a monograph

• The monograph manuscript in an editable format.
• An abstract and keywords in Polish and English, if required.
• A short author biography.
• The author’s ORCID identifier, if they have one.
• An author declaration.
• Information about the source of research funding or the project number, if applicable.

Requirements for monographs

• The work must be original and have scholarly value.
• The methodology must be sound.
• Quotations and sources must be properly identified.
• The bibliography must be complete.
• Publication ethics rules must be observed.
• The manuscript must comply with the Press’s editorial requirements.

Use of Artifical Intelligence tools

The author bears full responsibility for the publication’s content. Artificial intelligence tools must not be listed as authors or co-authors of a monograph. If AI tools were used in a way that had a significant impact on preparing the text (for example, language editing, translation, or analysis of materials), the author should inform the Press.

Publishing process

After a submission is received, the Press conducts a formal assessment and sends the monograph for academic peer review. The Press provides the author with the reviewers’ comments and, once they have been addressed, makes a decision on publication. The publication then undergoes editing, proofreading, and preparation for release.

Author responsibilities

• Submit original work.
• Respect copyright.
• Respond to reviewers’ comments.
• Provide the required materials on time.
• Cooperate with the editorial team.

Final provisions

These Guidelines apply to all authors submitting monographs for publication from the date they are approved by the Director of FNCE Academic Press. They are subject to periodic updates.
