My paper was rejected, but I feel that some important aspects were missed and that it does make a strong contribution to IB research and fits within the JIBS Statement of Editorial Policy. How can I appeal this decision?
The JIBS editors have developed a policy to handle appeals. Please send a detailed letter to the editor on the file, with a copy to the Managing Editor, explaining why you think the editor’s decision should be reversed. The editor will review the appeal and respond with a decision letter. If the editor decides to reverse his or her original decision, the Managing Editor will contact you with further instructions, and you will have four months to resubmit, as with any other revisions. If the editor rejects the appeal, you may choose to appeal this decision to the JIBS Editor-in-Chief. Note that the Editor-in-Chief will only overturn editors’ decisions in exceptional cases.
