e-Journal “Kavkazologiya” is an online scientific, cultural and educational publication by H.M. Berbekov Kabardino-Balkarian State University.  The journal publishes articles and discussion materials that cover the whole spectrum of the problems of historical and contemporary development of the North Caucasus peoples and society. While keeping a singular sociocultural image, the North Caucasus region is integrated into the surrounding world with the diversified network of multiform relationships.  One can see a region as an integral part of the Russian society and Russian state or as a separate historical and cultural area within the big Caucasus macro-region. And along with this magnetic force lines of modern world’s global interactions and global dynamics pierce it through. The e-Journal supports studies of the languages, folklore and literature, ethno-genesis and ethnic history of the North Caucasus peoples. The Journal’s scope includes also studies of social organization, general and singular subjects in material and spiritual culture of Caucasus peoples, their position in historical processes from Middle Ages through the modern and late modern to the contemporary period. The editorial board of the journal is particularly interested in the study and interpretation of the problems and prospects of economic, social, cultural and political modernization of the modern North Caucasus region and its effective integration into the geo-economics and geo-culture of the modern world while preserving its historical and cultural identity. The editorial board of the electronic journal welcomes comparative research works that combine all aspects of the above topics and correspond to the goals of the electronic journal.

Рецензиялау

All scientific articles submitted to the editorial office of the Electronic Journal Kavkazologiya undergo anonymous and one-sided "single blind" review (reviewers do not know the authors and receive manuscripts for review without attribution; the authors of the manuscript do not know the reviewers and receive a letter with comments from the editors).

Articles are reviewed by members of the editorial board and the editorial board, as well as invited reviewers, leading experts in the relevant industry in Russia and other countries. The decision on the choice of a reviewer for the examination of the article is made by the chief editor and deputy chief editors. The review period is 2-4 weeks.

When reviewing submitted manuscripts, the editors and reviewers are guided by the following criteria:

1. The formulation of a scientific problem, the relevance of the topic covered in the article from the point of view of solving scientific problems that relate to the problems and profile of the journal.
2. Originality, independence, novelty, interesting and/or debatable approaches.
3. Adherence to methodological and methodical culture (description of the object and subject, goals and objectives of research, hypotheses, etc.).
4. Reliability and credibility of the data.
5. The level of literary editing of the text, the accuracy of expression, conciseness, harmony and logic of argumentation, as well as compliance with editorial requirements.

Based on the results of the review of the manuscript, the reviewer makes recommendations on the acceptance of the article for publication, or on the refusal of the author of the article to publish (each decision of the reviewer is justified): the article is recommended for publication in its present form; the article is recommended for publication after correcting the shortcomings noted by the reviewer; the article needs additional review by another specialist; the article cannot be published in the journal.

If the review contains recommendations for correcting and finalizing the article, the editorial board sends the author the text of the review with a proposal to take them into account when preparing a new version of the article or to refute them (partially or completely). The revision of the article should not take more than 1 month from the moment of sending an e-mail to the authors about the need to make changes. The article revised by the author is re-sent for review.

If the authors do not return the revised version after 1.5 months from the date of sending the review, the editorial board removes the article from the register without additional notification to the authors.

If the author and the reviewers have unresolved contradictions regarding the content of the manuscript, the editorial board may send the manuscript for additional review.

The presence of a positive review is not a sufficient reason for the publication of the article. The final decision on publication is made by the editorial board. In conflict situations, the decision is made by the editor-in-chief.

The reviews are kept in the publishing house and in the editorial office of the publication for 5 years.
