Type of Articles
Classification of articles is a duty of the editorial staff and is of special importance. Referees and the
members of the editorial staff, or section editors, can propose a category, but the editor-in-chief has the
sole responsibility for their classification. Journal articles are classified as follows:
Scientific articles:
1. Original scientific paper (giving the previously unpublished results of the author’s own research
based on management methods).
2. Survey paper (giving an original, detailed and critical view of a research problem or an area to
which the author has made a contribution visible through his self-citation);
3. Short or preliminary communication (original management paper of full format but of a smaller
extent or of a preliminary character);
4. Scientific critique or forum (discussion on a particular scientific topic, based exclusively on
management argumentation) and commentaries.
Exceptionally, in particular areas, a scientific paper in the Journal can be in a form of a monograph or
a critical edition of scientific data (historical, archival, lexicographic, bibliographic, data survey, etc.)
which were unknown or hardly accessible for scientific research.
Professional articles:
1. Professional paper (contribution offering experience useful for improvement of professional
practice but not necessarily based on scientific methods);
2. Informative contribution (editorial, commentary, etc.);
3. Review (of a book, software, case study, scientific event, etc.)
Language
