Editorial Independence Policy

The International Journal of Social Science and Entrepreneurship (IJSSE) is committed to maintaining complete editorial independence in all aspects of its publishing activities. Editorial decisions are made solely on the basis of a manuscript's scholarly merit, originality, methodological quality, ethical compliance, and relevance to the journal's aims and scope.

The Editor-in-Chief and Editorial Board have full authority over the editorial process and publication decisions. The Publisher shall not influence, interfere with, or override editorial decisions for commercial, financial, political, or personal reasons.

Editors are expected to declare and appropriately manage any actual or potential conflicts of interest. Where a conflict exists, the handling of the manuscript shall be assigned to another qualified editor to ensure an impartial and transparent editorial process.

The journal is committed to safeguarding academic freedom, editorial integrity, and public trust by ensuring that all editorial decisions remain independent, objective, and free from undue influence.
