Conference Synergies in Communication, proposals coming from scholars
unable to join the event may be included in the final selection.

Research
misconduct

We take consistent steps to encourage and make
sure that our publication rejects research misconduct and plagiarism. Authors are
required to follow academic best practice, and our university and editorial
board verify that accepted papers comply with international standards. Despite
such efforts, in the case of a paper whose author fails to respect the work of
others, the respective article(s) will be removed from that edition and the author(s)
will not be accepted to submit papers again for at least two successive years.
Allegations of misconduct need to reach the editorial board as soon as there is
such a suspicion.
