All unsolicited submissions to Disputatio are triple-blind refereed: the identity of the authors is not revealed to the referees, the identity of the referees is not revealed to the authors and the identity of the authors is not revealed to the editors. The evaluation process has up to four stages, as follows: <OL> <LI>Preliminary vetting by the editors. </LI> <LI>Refereeing. </LI> <LI>Scrutiny of submission and referees’ reports by the editors. </LI> <LI>Decision by the editors. </LI></OL> The editors’ decision classifies the submission into one of the four categories: accepted, conditionally accepted, invited for resubmission after major revisions and rejected.
