Can I continue to peer review for these publishers or serve on the editorial boards of their journals?

Scientific editors involved in journals published by these publishing houses are invited to critically reflect on their editorial commitment in the current context. While it is recognized that scientific editors generally have very limited room for maneuver with regard to the strategic decisions of publishing houses, certain forms of positioning are nevertheless possible.

In particular, when deemed relevant and feasible, editors may consider collectively or individually communicating their concerns to the journals concerned, for example by temporarily suspending their editorial activities for the duration of a no-deal scenario and explaining the reasons for this decision to the operational editorial teams.

As for peer review activities for journals published by these publishers, they should be critically reevaluated in the current context and should not be considered a priority.
