Linguistic and Communicative Performance Journalwww.lcpj.pro[Print ISSN 2073-5138; Online ISSN 2077-0812], being the first Albanian scientific journal with ISSNs registered in France, was started as a publication of 500 hard copies in 2008 and as an online software (now www.old.lcpj.pro) in 2009 in Tirana, throughout various obstacles, out of necessity to launch the idea of breaking the chains or cutting the claws of various language structures, aiming at establishing a natural approach to a healthy qualitative performance in language acquisition, language production, as well as in an overall cultural and intercultural communication in order to help make the most of the limited capacities of human beings in the world and get the most out of such capacities each day.

The primary academic discipline of the LCPJ is Arts and Humanities, focusing mainly on the following subjects: Linguistics – Applied Linguistics; Education – Language and Literature Education; Social Sciences – Communication, Psychology, Interculturality; and Innovation – Radical/Incremental/Disruptive Linguistic Innovation.

4. Responsibilities of the publisher/owner, editors, and reviewers of the LCPJ

The relationship between the publisher/owner, editors, and reviewers is based on the principle of the integration of professional confidence, opinion independence, and continuous co-operation. However, based on our own practice and the COPE guidelines (https://publicationethics.org/resources/guidelines/cope-ethical-guidelines-peer-reviewers). we have adopted some points to show the responsibility of each party for the fluent management of things in order to be correct with our service to the authors of manuscripts submitted to become papers on the LCPJ:

1. The LCPJ Publishing is responsible for the general management of publication procedures, including the payment for the service done by editors and reviewers with no conflict of interest, so that the high quality of product publication is maintained. Publication issues can be discussed using the email address publisher@lcpj.pro.
2. Editors of LCPJ are responsible for everything published in the journal, so they may ask for more feedback from the reviewers before making any difficult decision to accept or reject a manuscript as an article. They also decide whether it is necessary to reflect an author’s ethical misbehaviour on the online version of the journal and report it to the author’s institution after having had communicated with the author previously.
3. Reviewers of LCPJ, who must link their professionalism to the reputation of this journal as well, should consider the following:
– Conduct objective reviews without personal criticism.
