\u010casopis Ekonomski fokus<\/strong> objavljuje izvorne znanstvene radove, pregledne radove, prethodna priop\u0107enja, stru\u010dne radove i druge priloge iz podru\u010dja ekonomije, poslovne ekonomije, financija i srodnih disciplina.<\/p>\n

Autori su prije predaje rukopisa du\u017eni upoznati se s ciljevima i podru\u010djem \u010dasopisa, pravilima recenzijskog postupka te na\u010delima publicacijske etike. Predajom rukopisa autor potvr\u0111uje da je rad originalan, da nije prethodno objavljen te da istodobno nije ponu\u0111en drugom \u010dasopisu na razmatranje.<\/p>\n

Predaja rukopisa<\/h2>\n

Rukopisi se predaju elektroni\u010dkim putem sustava Open Journal Systems (OJS)<\/strong> \u010dasopisa Ekonomski fokus.<\/p>\n

Prilikom predaje autor treba unijeti potpune metapodatke o radu i svim autorima. Posebnu pozornost potrebno je posvetiti to\u010dnosti imena autora, afilijacija, e-mail adresa i ORCID identifikatora.<\/p>\n

Glavni tekst rukopisa predaje se u ure\u0111ivom formatu, preporu\u010deno Microsoft Word (.docx)<\/strong>. Datoteka namijenjena recenziji mora biti anonimizirana kako bi se osigurao dvostruko slijepi recenzijski postupak.<\/p>\n

Vrste radova<\/h2>\n

\u010casopis razmatra radove koji prema svojem sadr\u017eaju i metodolo\u0161kom pristupu pripadaju jednoj od kategorija koje je definiralo uredni\u0161tvo, osobito izvorne znanstvene radove, pregledne radove, prethodna priop\u0107enja i stru\u010dne radove.<\/p>\n

Kona\u010dnu klasifikaciju rada odre\u0111uje uredni\u0161tvo na temelju sadr\u017eaja rukopisa, recenzentskih mi\u0161ljenja i primjenjivih kriterija znanstvenog izdava\u0161tva.<\/p>\n

Jezik rada<\/h2>\n

Radovi se mogu predavati na hrvatskom ili engleskom jeziku<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Za svaki rad potrebno je dostaviti naslov, sa\u017eetak i klju\u010dne rije\u010di na hrvatskom i engleskom jeziku, neovisno o jeziku glavnog teksta.<\/p>\n

Tekst mora biti jezi\u010dno i terminolo\u0161ki ure\u0111en. Uredni\u0161tvo mo\u017ee zatra\u017eiti dodatnu jezi\u010dnu redakturu prije prihva\u0107anja rada za objavu.<\/p>\n

Struktura rukopisa<\/h2>\n

Struktura rada treba odgovarati prirodi istra\u017eivanja i podru\u010dju kojem rad pripada. Za empirijske znanstvene radove preporu\u010duje se sljede\u0107a osnovna struktura:<\/p>\n

    \n
  • naslov rada<\/li>\n
  • sa\u017eetak<\/li>\n
  • klju\u010dne rije\u010di<\/li>\n
  • uvod<\/li>\n
  • pregled literature i\/ili teorijski okvir<\/li>\n
  • istra\u017eiva\u010dka pitanja i\/ili hipoteze, kada je primjenjivo<\/li>\n
  • metodologija istra\u017eivanja<\/li>\n
  • rezultati<\/li>\n
  • rasprava<\/li>\n
  • zaklju\u010dak<\/li>\n
  • ograni\u010denja istra\u017eivanja i preporuke za budu\u0107a istra\u017eivanja, kada su relevantni<\/li>\n
  • literatura<\/li>\n
  • prilozi, ako postoje.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    Autori mogu prilagoditi strukturu specifi\u010dnostima svojega istra\u017eivanja, pod uvjetom da rukopis ima jasnu i logi\u010dnu organizaciju.<\/p>\n

    Naslov rada<\/h2>\n

    Naslov treba biti jasan, informativan i dovoljno precizan da odra\u017eava sadr\u017eaj istra\u017eivanja.<\/p>\n

    Potrebno je dostaviti naslov na hrvatskom i engleskom jeziku.<\/p>\n

    Preporu\u010duje se izbjegavati nepotrebno duge naslove, neobja\u0161njene kratice i formulacije koje ne pridonose razumijevanju teme rada.<\/p>\n

    Sa\u017eetak<\/h2>\n

    Sa\u017eetak treba ukratko prikazati predmet i cilj istra\u017eivanja, primijenjenu metodologiju, najva\u017enije rezultate te glavni znanstveni ili prakti\u010dni doprinos rada.<\/p>\n

    Sa\u017eetak ne bi trebao sadr\u017eavati reference, tablice, slike ili neobja\u0161njene kratice.<\/p>\n

    Za radove na hrvatskom jeziku potrebno je dostaviti i engleski Abstract<\/strong>, a za radove na engleskom jeziku hrvatski sa\u017eetak.<\/p>\n

    Klju\u010dne rije\u010di<\/h2>\n

    Potrebno je navesti odgovaraju\u0107i broj klju\u010dnih rije\u010di koje jasno opisuju temu i podru\u010dje rada.<\/p>\n

    Klju\u010dne rije\u010di treba dostaviti na hrvatskom i engleskom jeziku. Preporu\u010duje se koristiti standardizirane stru\u010dne pojmove koji olak\u0161avaju indeksiranje i pronala\u017eenje rada u znanstvenim bazama podataka.<\/p>\n

    Podaci o autorima<\/h2>\n

    Za svakog autora u OJS sustavu potrebno je unijeti puno ime i prezime, naziv ustanove odnosno afilijaciju, dr\u017eavu, e-mail adresu te ORCID identifikator ako ga autor ima.<\/p>\n

    Potrebno je jasno odrediti autora za korespondenciju.<\/p>\n

    Redoslijed autora treba biti dogovoren prije predaje rukopisa. Nakon prihva\u0107anja rada promjene autorstva dopu\u0161taju se samo uz obrazlo\u017een zahtjev i suglasnost svih autora.<\/p>\n

    Anonimizacija rukopisa<\/h2>\n

    Budu\u0107i da \u010dasopis koristi dvostruko slijepi recenzijski postupak<\/strong>, datoteka koja se \u0161alje na recenziju ne smije sadr\u017eavati podatke koji otkrivaju identitet autora.<\/p>\n

    Iz rukopisa je potrebno ukloniti imena autora, afilijacije, zahvalnice koje mogu otkriti autorstvo te druge izravne identifikacijske podatke.<\/p>\n

    Samocitate treba formulirati neutralno, bez izraza poput \u201eu na\u0161em prethodnom radu\u201c.<\/p>\n

    Podaci o autorima unose se zasebno u OJS sustav.<\/p>\n

    Oblikovanje rukopisa<\/h2>\n

    Rukopis treba biti pripremljen pregledno i dosljedno. Naslove i podnaslove treba koristiti hijerarhijski i numerirati samo ako to doprinosi jasno\u0107i rada.<\/p>\n

    Tekst treba biti napisan standardnim stru\u010dnim i znanstvenim stilom. Preporu\u010duje se koristiti me\u0111unarodno prihva\u0107ene oznake, jedinice i stru\u010dnu terminologiju.<\/p>\n

    Pretjerano oblikovanje dokumenta nije potrebno jer se prihva\u0107eni radovi prilago\u0111avaju grafi\u010dkim i tehni\u010dkim standardima \u010dasopisa tijekom pripreme za objavu.<\/p>\n

    Tablice<\/h2>\n

    Tablice trebaju biti numerirane redoslijedom pojavljivanja u tekstu i imati jasan naslov.<\/p>\n

    Svaka tablica mora biti razumljiva bez potrebe za opse\u017enim tuma\u010denjem u glavnom tekstu. Izvor podataka potrebno je navesti neposredno ispod tablice kada podaci nisu rezultat vlastitog istra\u017eivanja autora.<\/p>\n

    Tablice je po\u017eeljno dostaviti u ure\u0111ivom obliku, a ne kao slike.<\/p>\n

    Slike i grafikoni<\/h2>\n

    Slike, grafikoni, dijagrami i ostali grafi\u010dki prilozi trebaju biti kvalitetni i dovoljno \u010ditljivi za elektroni\u010dku i tiskanu objavu.<\/p>\n

    Svaki grafi\u010dki prilog mora imati broj i naslov. Izvor se navodi kada grafi\u010dki prilog nije izvorno djelo autora.<\/p>\n

    Autori su odgovorni za pribavljanje dozvole za kori\u0161tenje materijala za\u0161ti\u0107enog autorskim pravom.<\/p>\n

    Citiranje i literatura<\/h2>\n

    Citati i popis literature moraju biti oblikovani dosljedno prema bibliografskom stilu koji primjenjuje \u010dasopis.<\/p>\n

    Za Ekonomski fokus<\/strong> preporu\u010duje se primjena standarda APA, 7. izdanje (APA 7)<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

    Svi izvori navedeni u tekstu moraju biti uklju\u010deni u popis literature, a svaki izvor iz popisa literature mora biti citiran u tekstu.<\/p>\n

    Kad god postoji, uz bibliografsku jedinicu treba navesti DOI u obliku poveznice, primjerice:<\/p>\n

    https:\/\/doi.org\/10.xxxx\/xxxxx<\/code><\/p>\n

    Autori trebaju provjeriti to\u010dnost svih bibliografskih podataka prije predaje rukopisa.<\/p>\n

    Podaci i reproduktivnost istra\u017eivanja<\/h2>\n

    Autori trebaju osigurati da su rezultati istra\u017eivanja prikazani to\u010dno, transparentno i na na\u010din koji omogu\u0107uje odgovaraju\u0107u znanstvenu provjeru.<\/p>\n

    Kada je primjenjivo i dopu\u0161teno eti\u010dkim, pravnim i ugovornim ograni\u010denjima, poti\u010de se dostupnost istra\u017eiva\u010dkih podataka, kodova i drugih materijala potrebnih za provjeru rezultata.<\/p>\n

    Ako podaci nisu javno dostupni, preporu\u010duje se navesti razlog njihove nedostupnosti.<\/p>\n

    Eti\u010dka odobrenja<\/h2>\n

    Za istra\u017eivanja koja uklju\u010duju ispitanike, osobne podatke ili druge sadr\u017eaje koji zahtijevaju eti\u010dko odobrenje, autori su du\u017eni potvrditi da je istra\u017eivanje provedeno u skladu s odgovaraju\u0107im eti\u010dkim standardima.<\/p>\n

    Uredni\u0161tvo mo\u017ee zatra\u017eiti dokaz o eti\u010dkom odobrenju ili druge relevantne dokumente.<\/p>\n

    Sukob interesa<\/h2>\n

    Svi autori du\u017eni su prijaviti financijske, profesionalne, osobne ili druge odnose koji bi se mogli smatrati stvarnim ili potencijalnim sukobom interesa.<\/p>\n

    Ako sukob interesa ne postoji, preporu\u010duje se to izri\u010dito navesti.<\/p>\n

    Financiranje istra\u017eivanja<\/h2>\n

    Ako je istra\u017eivanje financirano projektom, institucijom, zakladom ili drugim izvorom financiranja, potrebno je navesti naziv financijera i, kada postoji, broj projekta ili ugovora.<\/p>\n

    Upotreba umjetne inteligencije<\/h2>\n

    Alati generativne umjetne inteligencije ne mogu biti navedeni kao autori rada.<\/p>\n

    Ako su alati umjetne inteligencije kori\u0161teni u pripremi rukopisa, analizi podataka, programiranju, izradi slika ili drugim sadr\u017eajno zna\u010dajnim dijelovima istra\u017eiva\u010dkog procesa, njihova uporaba treba biti transparentno navedena na odgovaraju\u0107em mjestu u rukopisu.<\/p>\n

    Autori u potpunosti odgovaraju za to\u010dnost, originalnost, vjerodostojnost i eti\u010dku prihvatljivost cjelokupnog sadr\u017eaja rada, neovisno o kori\u0161tenim tehnolo\u0161kim alatima.<\/p>\n

    Originalnost i plagiranje<\/h2>\n

    Predani rukopis mora predstavljati originalan rad autora.<\/p>\n

    Plagiranje, samoplagiranje, manipulacija podacima, falsificiranje rezultata, neprimjereno autorstvo, istodobna predaja istog rada u vi\u0161e \u010dasopisa i drugi oblici znanstvene ne\u010destitosti nisu dopu\u0161teni.<\/p>\n

    Uredni\u0161tvo zadr\u017eava pravo provjere rukopisa odgovaraju\u0107im alatima i metodama za otkrivanje sli\u010dnosti i mogu\u0107ih povreda publicacijske etike.<\/p>\n

    Recenzijski postupak<\/h2>\n

    Radovi koji zadovolje po\u010detnu uredni\u010dku provjeru upu\u0107uju se u dvostruko slijepi recenzijski postupak<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

    U pravilu rad ocjenjuju najmanje dva neovisna recenzenta. Na temelju njihovih mi\u0161ljenja i uredni\u010dke procjene rad mo\u017ee biti prihva\u0107en, prihva\u0107en uz manje izmjene, vra\u0107en autorima na ve\u0107e izmjene ili odbijen.<\/p>\n

    Detaljan opis postupka dostupan je na stranici Recenzijski postupak<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

    Revizija rukopisa<\/h2>\n

    Ako uredni\u0161tvo zatra\u017ei izmjene, autori trebaju dostaviti novu verziju rukopisa i odgovor na komentare recenzenata.<\/p>\n

    Preporu\u010duje se odgovoriti na svaki komentar zasebno i jasno navesti gdje je odgovaraju\u0107a izmjena napravljena.<\/p>\n

    Ako odre\u0111ena preporuka nije prihva\u0107ena, potrebno je obrazlo\u017eiti razlog.<\/p>\n

    Autorska prava i otvoreni pristup<\/h2>\n

    Autori su prije objave du\u017eni prihvatiti uvjete autorskih prava i licenciranja koje primjenjuje \u010dasopis Ekonomski fokus<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

    Informacije o modelu otvorenog pristupa, autorskim pravima i licenci objavljuju se na zasebnoj stranici \u010dasopisa.<\/p>\n

    Nakon prihva\u0107anja rada<\/h2>\n

    Nakon prihva\u0107anja rukopisa rad prolazi zavr\u0161nu uredni\u010dku i tehni\u010dku pripremu za objavu.<\/p>\n

    Autori mogu dobiti zavr\u0161nu verziju rada na provjeru prije objave. U toj fazi dopu\u0161tene su uglavnom manje jezi\u010dne, tipografske i tehni\u010dke ispravke. Zna\u010dajne promjene sadr\u017eaja nakon kona\u010dnog prihva\u0107anja zahtijevaju odobrenje uredni\u0161tva.<\/p>\n

    Objavljeni rad dobiva kona\u010dne bibliografske podatke, a kada su za to ispunjeni uvjeti i DOI identifikator<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

    Odgovornost autora<\/h2>\n

    Predajom rukopisa autori potvr\u0111uju da su pro\u010ditali i prihvatili pravila \u010dasopisa, da su svi navedeni autori zna\u010dajno doprinijeli radu, da su upoznati s njegovim sadr\u017eajem te da pristaju na predaju rukopisa \u010dasopisu Ekonomski fokus<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

    Za sadr\u017eaj rada, to\u010dnost podataka, citiranje izvora, po\u0161tivanje autorskih prava i uskla\u0111enost istra\u017eivanja s eti\u010dkim standardima odgovorni su autori.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

    Ekonomski fokus<\/span><\/strong> publishes original research articles, review articles, preliminary communications, professional papers, and other contributions in the fields of economics, business economics, finance, and related disciplines.<\/span><\/p>

    Before submitting a manuscript, authors are expected to familiarize themselves with the journal\u2019s aims and scope, peer review procedure, and publication ethics policies. By submitting a manuscript, the author confirms that the work is original, has not been previously published, and is not simultaneously under consideration by another journal.<\/span><\/p>

    Manuscript Submission<\/span><\/h2>

    Manuscripts are submitted electronically through the <\/span>Open Journal Systems (OJS)<\/span><\/strong> platform of Ekonomski fokus.<\/span><\/p>

    During submission, authors must provide complete metadata for the manuscript and for all authors. Particular attention should be paid to the accuracy of author names, affiliations, e-mail addresses, and ORCID identifiers.<\/span><\/p>

    The main manuscript file should be submitted in an editable format, preferably <\/span>Microsoft Word (.docx)<\/span><\/strong>. The file intended for peer review must be anonymized in order to ensure a double-blind review process.<\/span><\/p>

    Types of Papers<\/span><\/h2>

    The journal considers manuscripts that, according to their content and methodological approach, fall within one of the categories defined by the editorial board, particularly original research articles, review articles, preliminary communications, and professional papers.<\/span><\/p>

    The final classification of a manuscript is determined by the editorial board on the basis of its content, peer review reports, and applicable criteria of scholarly publishing.<\/span><\/p>

    Language of the Manuscript<\/span><\/h2>

    Manuscripts may be submitted in <\/span>Croatian or English<\/span><\/strong>.<\/span><\/p>

    For every manuscript, the title, abstract, and keywords must be provided in both Croatian and English, regardless of the language of the main text.<\/span><\/p>

    The manuscript must be linguistically and terminologically appropriate. The editorial board may request additional language editing before final acceptance.<\/span><\/p>

    Manuscript Structure<\/span><\/h2>

    The structure of the manuscript should correspond to the nature of the research and the field to which it belongs. For empirical research articles, the following structure is recommended:<\/span><\/p>

    • title<\/span><\/li>
    • abstract<\/span><\/li>
    • keywords<\/span><\/li>
    • introduction<\/span><\/li>
    • literature review and\/or theoretical framework<\/span><\/li>
    • research questions and\/or hypotheses, where applicable<\/span><\/li>
    • research methodology<\/span><\/li>
    • results<\/span><\/li>
    • discussion<\/span><\/li>
    • conclusion<\/span><\/li>
    • limitations and recommendations for future research, where relevant<\/span><\/li>
    • references<\/span><\/li>
    • appendices, if applicable.<\/span><\/li><\/ul>

      Authors may adapt the structure to the specific characteristics of their research, provided that the manuscript is clearly and logically organized.<\/span><\/p>

      Title<\/span><\/h2>

      The title should be clear, informative, and sufficiently precise to reflect the content of the research.<\/span><\/p>

      The title must be provided in both Croatian and English.<\/span><\/p>

      Unnecessarily long titles, unexplained abbreviations, and formulations that do not contribute to understanding the subject of the paper should be avoided.<\/span><\/p>

      Abstract<\/span><\/h2>

      The abstract should briefly present the subject and objective of the research, the methodology used, the main findings, and the principal scientific or practical contribution of the paper.<\/span><\/p>

      The abstract should not contain references, tables, figures, or unexplained abbreviations.<\/span><\/p>

      For manuscripts written in Croatian, an English abstract must also be provided. For manuscripts written in English, a Croatian abstract is required.<\/span><\/p>

      Keywords<\/span><\/h2>

      Authors should provide an appropriate number of keywords that clearly describe the topic and scope of the manuscript.<\/span><\/p>

      Keywords must be provided in both Croatian and English. The use of standardized academic terminology is recommended in order to facilitate indexing and retrieval in scholarly databases.<\/span><\/p>

      Author Information<\/span><\/h2>

      For each author, the OJS system should include the full name, institutional affiliation, country, e-mail address, and ORCID identifier, where available.<\/span><\/p>

      The corresponding author must be clearly identified.<\/span><\/p>

      The order of authors should be agreed upon before submission. Changes to authorship after acceptance are permitted only upon a justified request and with the consent of all authors.<\/span><\/p>

      Manuscript Anonymization<\/span><\/h2>

      Because the journal uses a <\/span>double-blind peer review process<\/span><\/strong>, the manuscript file submitted for review must not contain information that reveals the identity of the authors.<\/span><\/p>

      Authors should remove names, affiliations, acknowledgements that could disclose authorship, and other direct identifying information.<\/span><\/p>

      Self-citations should be written neutrally, without expressions such as \u201cin our previous study\u201d.<\/span><\/p>

      Author details are entered separately in the OJS system.<\/span><\/p>

      Manuscript Formatting<\/span><\/h2>

      The manuscript should be prepared in a clear and consistent manner. Headings and subheadings should be used hierarchically and numbered only where this improves clarity.<\/span><\/p>

      The text should follow standard academic and professional writing conventions. Internationally accepted symbols, units, and terminology should be used.<\/span><\/p>

      Excessive document formatting is unnecessary, as accepted manuscripts are adapted to the journal\u2019s graphic and technical standards during production.<\/span><\/p>

      Tables<\/span><\/h2>

      Tables should be numbered in the order in which they appear in the manuscript and should have clear titles.<\/span><\/p>

      Each table should be understandable without extensive explanation in the main text. The source of the data should be stated directly below the table when the data are not the result of the authors\u2019 own research.<\/span><\/p>

      Tables should preferably be submitted in editable form rather than as images.<\/span><\/p>

      Figures and Graphs<\/span><\/h2>

      Figures, graphs, diagrams, and other visual material must be of sufficient quality and readability for electronic and, where applicable, print publication.<\/span><\/p>

      Each figure or graphic element must have a number and a title. The source must be provided when the material is not the original work of the authors.<\/span><\/p>

      Authors are responsible for obtaining permission to use copyrighted material.<\/span><\/p>

      Citations and References<\/span><\/h2>

      Citations and the reference list must be formatted consistently according to the bibliographic style used by the journal.<\/span><\/p>

      For <\/span>Ekonomski fokus<\/span><\/strong>, the recommended standard is <\/span>APA, 7th edition (APA 7)<\/span><\/strong>.<\/span><\/p>

      All sources cited in the text must be included in the reference list, and every source listed in the references must be cited in the text.<\/span><\/p>

      Where available, the DOI should be provided in URL form, for example:<\/span><\/p>

      https:\/\/doi.org\/10.xxxx\/xxxxx<\/code><\/p>

      Authors are responsible for verifying the accuracy of all bibliographic information before submission.<\/span><\/p>

      Research Data and Reproducibility<\/span><\/h2>

      Authors should ensure that research findings are presented accurately, transparently, and in a manner that allows appropriate scholarly verification.<\/span><\/p>

      Where applicable and permitted by ethical, legal, and contractual restrictions, authors are encouraged to make research data, code, and other materials necessary for the verification of results available.<\/span><\/p>

      If data cannot be made publicly available, the reason for their unavailability should be stated.<\/span><\/p>

      Ethical Approval<\/span><\/h2>

      For research involving human participants, personal data, or other content requiring ethical approval, authors must confirm that the research was conducted in accordance with appropriate ethical standards.<\/span><\/p>

      The editorial board may request evidence of ethical approval or other relevant documentation.<\/span><\/p>

      Conflicts of Interest<\/span><\/h2>

      All authors must disclose any financial, professional, personal, or other relationships that could be perceived as an actual or potential conflict of interest.<\/span><\/p>

      If no conflict of interest exists, authors are encouraged to state this explicitly.<\/span><\/p>

      Research Funding<\/span><\/h2>

      If the research was funded by a project, institution, foundation, or other funding source, the name of the funder and, where applicable, the project or grant number should be provided.<\/span><\/p>

      Use of Artificial Intelligence<\/span><\/h2>

      Generative artificial intelligence tools may not be listed as authors.<\/span><\/p>

      If artificial intelligence tools were used in manuscript preparation, data analysis, programming, image generation, or other substantively relevant parts of the research process, their use should be transparently disclosed in an appropriate section of the manuscript.<\/span><\/p>

      Authors remain fully responsible for the accuracy, originality, reliability, and ethical acceptability of the entire manuscript, regardless of the technological tools used.<\/span><\/p>

      Originality and Plagiarism<\/span><\/h2>

      Submitted manuscripts must represent the authors\u2019 original work.<\/span><\/p>

      Plagiarism, self-plagiarism, data manipulation, fabrication or falsification of results, inappropriate authorship, simultaneous submission of the same manuscript to multiple journals, and other forms of research misconduct are not permitted.<\/span><\/p>

      The editorial board reserves the right to screen manuscripts using appropriate tools and procedures for detecting similarity and possible violations of publication ethics.<\/span><\/p>

      Peer Review Process<\/span><\/h2>

      Manuscripts that pass the initial editorial screening are sent for <\/span>double-blind peer review<\/span><\/strong>.<\/span><\/p>

      As a rule, each manuscript is evaluated by at least two independent reviewers. Based on their reports and the editorial assessment, a manuscript may be accepted, accepted with minor revisions, returned to the authors for major revisions, or rejected.<\/span><\/p>

      A detailed description of the process is available on the <\/span>Peer Review Process<\/span><\/strong> page.<\/span><\/p>

      Manuscript Revision<\/span><\/h2>

      If revisions are requested, authors should submit a revised version of the manuscript together with a response to the reviewers\u2019 comments.<\/span><\/p>

      Authors are encouraged to respond to each comment individually and clearly indicate where the corresponding revision has been made.<\/span><\/p>

      If a particular recommendation is not followed, the reasons should be explained.<\/span><\/p>

      Copyright and Open Access<\/span><\/h2>

      Before publication, authors must accept the copyright and licensing terms applied by <\/span>Ekonomski fokus<\/span><\/strong>.<\/span><\/p>

      Information on the journal\u2019s open access model, copyright policy, and applicable licence is provided on a separate journal policy page.<\/span><\/p>

      After Acceptance<\/span><\/h2>

      After acceptance, the manuscript undergoes final editorial and technical preparation for publication.<\/span><\/p>

      Authors may receive the final version of the manuscript for proofreading before publication. At this stage, only minor linguistic, typographical, and technical corrections are generally permitted. Substantial changes to the content after final acceptance require editorial approval.<\/span><\/p>

      The published article receives its final bibliographic information and, where applicable, a <\/span>DOI identifier<\/span><\/strong>.<\/span><\/p>

      Author Responsibility<\/span><\/h2>

      By submitting a manuscript, the authors confirm that they have read and accepted the journal\u2019s policies, that all listed authors have made a significant contribution to the work, that they are familiar with its contents, and that they agree to the submission of the manuscript to <\/span>Ekonomski fokus<\/span><\/strong>.<\/span><\/p>
