PEER EVALUATION PROCESS:
All articles go through a double-blind peer review process, so that neither authors nor reviewers know the identity of the other party. Each blind pair analyzes works that coincide with their area of knowledge. The journal has the collaboration of external reviewers from its editorial team and the publishing institution. The reviewers undertake to maintain the reliability of saving and not disclosing the article that has been entrusted to them for review. All authors must submit their work through the platform in Word format. The editor assigned to the issue is in no way the reviewer of the articles. The information on the description of the peer review processes can be found, exhaustively, in the Peer Review Process.
