Ownership and Management
The journal is published by Universitas Islam Indonesia, Yogyakarta, Indonesia. Along with all journals in the university, ownership of the journal is in Universitas Islam Indonesia. Under current regulations at the university, the Rector of Universitas Islam Indonesia appointed an editorial team led by an editor-in-chief with responsibilities in managing the journal.
Universitas Islam Indonesia provides funding for the management of the journal on a daily basis, including the editorial team's annual salary, editorial meetings, and others. The editorial team was initially proposed by the editor-in-chief of the journal to the Vice Rector of Academic Affairs.
Universitas Islam Indonesia also provides funding to cover costs associated with the needs of all journals, including annual membership in Crossref, annual membership in Portico, annual membership in DOAJ, Open Journal Systems hosting and maintenance, and others.
The journal is not currently affiliated with any organization.
Based on above information, the journal will not mislead potential authors and editors about the nature of the journal's owner.
Furthermore, it is important to understand that the journal follows WAME policies on The Relationship Between Journal Editors-in-Chief and Owners. The Editor in Chief and Universitas Islam Indonesia want the journal to succeed, but they have different roles. The Editor in Chief’s primary responsibilities are to inform and educate readers, with attention to the accuracy and importance of journal articles, and to protect and strengthen the integrity and quality of the journal and its processes. Universitas Islam Indonesia supports the core values and policies of the organization and is ultimately responsible for all aspects of publishing the journal, including its staff, budget, and business policies, as previously mentioned. The relationship between Universitas Islam Indonesia and the Editor in Chief is based on mutual respect, trust, and recognition of each other’s authority and responsibilities.
Editor in Chief has full authority over the editorial content of the journal, generally referred to as “editorial independence.” Editorial content includes articles and editorials, both in print or electronic format, and how and when information is published. Universitas Islam Indonesia does not interfere in the evaluation, selection, or editing of individual articles, either directly or by creating an environment in which editorial decisions are strongly influenced.
