ABOUT THE JOURNAL

 

Basic Information

Ensayos de Economía is a journal from the Universidad Nacional de Colombia, sede Medellín (Medellín campus). Founded in 1990, it represents the efforts and initiative of a group of professors who wanted a platform to express themselves and to publish the academic and scientific work of the national and international community. The aim of the journal is to present theoretical and applied research to the public, emphasizing the analysis of reality, the reporting of empirical evidence, and the formulation of economic policies. This initiative is grounded in the belief that economic analyses provide the tools necessary for understanding the national and international economies, as well as policies to overcome poverty and inequality and to build the foundations of a more democratic and free society. The Ensayos de Economía journal is intended for individuals interested in empirical and theoretical studies of economic sciences: economists, students and teachers at both graduate and undergraduate levels, and researchers in all related fields. Likewise, the journal is a forum open to theoretical traditions in economic sciences and to all major cutting-edge debates. In that sense, all contributions are welcome. The journal is a biannual publication (January-June and July-December).

The Ensayos de Economía journal receives and considers papers for publishing in the areas of research, analysis, theoretical and methodological review, as well as analysis papers not derived from research, and literature reviews. The journal publishes papers in Spanish, English and Portuguese. All contents submitted for publishing must be original, unpublished and must not have been submitted to any other journal or periodical publication.

The Ensayos de Economía journal runs all submitted papers through a plagiarism detection tool. Authors are notified when total or partial plagiarism (without appropriate citations) is detected and the paper is rejected.

During the first stage of the publishing process, papers submitted to the journal will be reviewed to verify that they satisfy the requirements listed in the norms for authors. Papers that do not fulfill the requirements will be rejected; otherwise, they will be submitted to two academic peers for a double-blind review – the identity of the author(s) is not revealed to the reviewers, and the identity of the reviewers is not revealed to the author(s). The academic peers will be designated by the editorial committee. Papers will be evaluated in terms of conceptual and methodological rigor, clarity, and coherence of the reasoning and explanation. If a paper receives both a positive and a negative review, it will be sent to a third reviewer, whose opinion will be definitive. The editorial committee will settle any controversy concerning the evaluations, and it will have the final word on which papers will be published. The decisions of the editorial committee will not be subject to appeal. The time estimated to report the concept regarding a paper (accepted or rejected) is approximately of 6 months, starting the date of reception of contents. The author must accept and implement all the formal adjustments suggested by the academic peers and the direction of the journal.
