To ensure honest and unbiased assessment of papers submitted to the Editorial Board of the 'Annales. Ethics in Economic Life' / 'Annales. Etyka w życiu gospodarczym', they are evaluated according to the review procedure recommended by the Ministry of Science and Higher Education in Poland.

All the papers are assessed by two independent reviewers who are not affiliated with the research centres of the authors. The evaluation is carried out in accordance with the procedure of double anonymity of the reviewer and the author of the article (double-blind review process). In cases of papers written in a foreign language, at least one of the reviewers is affiliated to a research centre located in a country other than that from which the author comes.

The reviews are provided in writing. The reviewer concludes categorically whether an article is ready for publishing, ought to be corrected or should be rejected. On the basis of the reviews the Editorial Board takes a decision to publish, reject or send the paper back to the author to make necessary corrections.

The authors can reply to the reviews. These replies are considered by the Editorial Board.
