Plagiarism, falsification or misrepresentation of data, divisional publication, repetition of publication, inclusion of non-contributory authors, breach of copyrights and prevailing conflict of interest are unacceptable practices within the ethical rules.

The Eurasian Journal of Comparative Law applies the most advance principles regarding mistakes, ethical violations and disclaimers. It is deemed to be declared that the content of the studies submitted to the journal is original.

Necessary legal actions will be taken in case of any ethical violations regarding the above stated or similar principles. All parties involved in the publishing process (Editors, Reviewers, Authors and Publishers) are expected to agree on the following ethical principles.

Authorship: It is considered wrongful to include individuals who have not actively contributed to the work as authors or to exclude individuals who have contributed to the work from authorship. Authors should have contributed sufficiently to all stages of the work, such as planning, data collection and evaluation.

Plagiarism: It is considered plagiarism to present the methods, original ideas, data, writings or figures of others as one's work in whole or in part without proper citation under scientific rules. In order to avoid plagiarism, authors should cite their works under scientific rules and pay attention to the citation of all scientific articles in their research.

Distortion: Changing the records or data collected without conducting research, showing devices or materials not used in the research as if they were used, falsifying or shaping the research results in line with the interests of the people and organizations receiving support are considered within the scope of distortion.

Dividing and Publishing: Inappropriate sectionalization of the results of research in a way that infringes the integrity of the research, publishing the sections in more than one number without referring to each other, and presenting these publications as separate publications are considered within the scope of the divisional publication.

Duplicate Publication: Presenting duplicate publications as separate publications without referring to previous publications is considered within the scope of publication repetition. The responsibility for the fact that the works submitted for evaluation have been previously published elsewhere or are in the evaluation process lies entirely with the authors. Authors should avoid repetition and take care in submitting original research.

1. The editor is responsible for publishing the submitted manuscripts. The editor evaluates submissions without taking into account the race, ethnicity, gender, religion, belief, nationality and political views of the authors. The decision is based on the article's significance, originality and clarity, as well as the validity of the work and its relevance to the scope of the journal. Applicable legal requirements regarding defamation, copyright infringement and plagiarism must also be considered.

2. Unpublished material used in a submitted article can only be used by the editor or editorial board members for their personal research purposes with the author's written permission.
