Review Process
Every manuscript submitted to Una Mens is read in full by a human editor. At this stage of the journal's life, that human is the chief editor: no submission is evaluated, declined, or accepted without complete human reading and human judgement. Depending on the piece, review may include human editorial assessment, AI-assisted commentary, or a combination of both. Final editorial decisions remain with the human editorial lead.
We review submissions for:
-
clarity of purpose
-
conceptual or empirical originality
-
rigor appropriate to the form
-
relevance to the journal’s aims
-
quality of framing and contribution
Our aim is thoughtful, constructive review: serious, tuned, and useful.
