This qualitative study aimed at generating an understanding of the manuscript review process. Results showed that relations of power and epistemic authority in manuscript review are complex and dynamic. A shifting "net" of power relations is then suggested, also by encouraging reviewers to participate in the review process in the most ethical and effective manner.
