Sections and Sub-sections: It is recommended, if applicable, to divide the work
into: summary, introduction, theoretical foundations, methodology, analysis or dis-
cussion, conclusion or nal considerations and references. Each of the sections or

number (s) of the page (s), for example: according to (Granadillo, 1998: 45); if it is not a

ple: according to Granadillo (1998) or (Granadillo, 1998). If there are several works
by the same author published in the same year, they will be arranged literally in al-

same criteria explained above for textual citations and paraphrase. If there are three
or more authors, the last name of the main author will be placed followed by “et al”,
example: (Rincón et al, 2008: 45). Quotations from unpublished works or works in
print, as well as references to communications and private documents of limited
circulation, should be avoided as much as possible, unless strictly necessary. In the

regulations, the one cited at the bottom of the page can be resorted to or chosen.
Bibliographic references: References (bibliographic, newspaper, oral and / or
documentary) will be presented at the end of the text. The order of the references is
alphabetical by surname. The dierent works by the same author will be organized
chronologically, in ascending order, and if there are two or more works by the same
author and year, the strict alphabetical order by title will be maintained.

tical order. Authors are responsible for the accuracy of the references.

authors in capital letters (period); year of publication in parentheses (period) title of

contain the same elements indicated by the articles added to: electronic means, ad-
dress electronic or web page, date of retrieval and any other information that is con-
sidered useful for the full identication of the reference.
Annexes: the annexes constitute complementary elements of the text that the
reader refers to a part of the work or outside of it, with the purpose of illustrating
the ideas presented in the text, expanding or clarifying or complementing what is
expressed there. The annexes are counted as part of the number of pages of the
document. In the case of gures and tables, the author may accompany the original
with the illustrations that he deems necessary.

ges): Conferences, Essays, Reviews: recent reading comments. Reviews: critical analy-
sis (or comment) of recent reading, documents, texts of a historical and legal nature,

Stage 1: Internal review or pre-review, within a period of two (2) weeks. The co-
rrespondence between citations and references, the thematic compatibility of the
article with the disciplinary blocks of the journal, as well as the control and verica-
tion of plagiarism through software on the Web will be veried. The author will be
informed about the acceptance or rejection to continue in the arbitration process.
Stage 2: External review, within a period of four (4) weeks, through the inclusion
of two specialist pairs, as reviewers of the article under the double-blind modality,
and in case of disagreement in the evaluation, a third evaluator will be assigned to
settle disagreements. These specialists will make observations and issue a concept
in terms of: (a) Publishable without modications, (b) Publishable with slight modi-
cations, (c) Publishable with substantial modications, (d) Not publishable. As can be
seen in our evaluation instrument.
The following criteria are taken into account in the arbitration process:
a. Content criteria: a) domain of evidenced knowledge; b) scientic rigor; c)
theoretical and methodological foundation; d) topicality and relevance of the sources
consulted; f) contributions to existing knowledge.
b. Formal or presentation criteria: 1) originality, relevance and adequate ex-
tension of the title; 2) clarity and coherence of speech; 3) adequate preparation of
the summary; 4) internal organization of the text.
The format used by reviewers to evaluate articles includes two main parameters:
formal or presentation criteria and content criteria, which will be evaluated on a scale
that expresses the values: E = Excellent B = Good R = Fair D = Poor
Formal or presentation criteria: 1) Originality, relevance and adequate exten-
sion of the title; 2) Clarity and coherence of speech; 3) Adequate preparation of the
summary: objective, methodology, results and keywords; 4) nternal organization of
the text.
Content criteria:1) Domain of evidenced knowledge; 2) Scientic rigor; 3) Theo-
retical and methodological foundation; 4) Actuality and relevance of the sources con-
sulted; 5) Contributions to existing knowledge.
Once the article is refereed, the concept of publication will be made known throu-
gh an email to the contact author (s). If adjustments to the article are required (Ac-
cepted after completing corrections), the author (s) will have a maximum period of
15 days to make the adjustments (this period is part of the 5 weeks of Phase 2), and
they must send a new version of the document and a letter in which each one of the

bility of the authors to comply with all the suggestions and recommendations sent;
if there are disagreements, they should inform and argue their position. The editor
decides if the modied article is sent again to the same peer evaluators assigned to
request their nal endorsement. Once the comments, concepts or corrections are
received, the editor, together with the Editorial Committee, makes the nal decision
of Accepted for Publication or Not Accepted, as the case may be.
If the article is Accepted for publication (without corrections or minimal correc-
tions) the authors must comply with the delivery of; a) the nal version of the article
in Spanish or English, according to the preference of the authors; (b) an authoriza-
tion to the Editorial Committee of the journal for the reproduction of text with the
authors’ signatures; and (c) the identication data of the authors for the respective
journal database (ORCID code, full names and email).
Rejected articles (Not accepted for publication) will be notied to their authors via
email.
Stage 3: Once the article is accepted, the nal editing and layout process begins,
