In order to submit an article to the RES, it should be sent directly by way of
the form for sending articles which is found at the web page http://res.uniandes.edu.co. The articles submitted should not be in the
process of being evaluated nor have publishing commitments with any other
publication. Receipt of a text will be acknowledged immediately, and the results
of the evaluation will be made known in a period of a maximum of six months. All
the articles will be submitted to a process of arbitration with peer evaluators
being in charge who can make suggestions to the author. During the evaluation,
the names of the authors as well as those of the evaluators will be anonymous.
The final decision of publishing or rejecting the articles is made by the
Editorial Committee, based on the reports presented by the evaluators. This
decision is communicated to the author by way of a written account sent by the
Editor of the RES, as well as through the data base which appears on our web
page.
Once the evaluation has been completed, the texts will not be returned.
The articles should meet the following requirements:
- Be written in Word
format, in Times New Roman font Size 12, double-spaced, paginated and in
letter-size paper.
- Have margins of 2.5 X 2.5 X 2.5 X 2.5. cm.
- Have a length of
between 15 and 25 pages, including summaries and key words (the bibliography,
photographs, maps, graphs, illustrations and tables are counted separately).
- The footnotes should be in Times New Roman 10 and single-spaced.
- Have a summary of the article in English, of no more than 200 words, and its
corresponding translation into Spanish. The title of the text should be
similarly presented in both languages. It is required that this information be
registered on the form for the sending of articles.
- Have between 3 and 6 key words which identify the article, in English as well as
in Spanish. It is necessary that both groups be included in the form for sending
articles. The key words should reflect the contents of the document and it is
therefore necessary that they point out the precise themes of the article,
covering the areas of knowledge in which they fall and the principle concepts.
It is recommended that the terms and hierarchies in the bibliographical lists (THESAURUS +) be reviewed and correspondence between titles, summaries and key
words be sought.
- Be written in language accessible to audiences from different disciplines.
- Include professional information, academic titles, and current place of work or
study of each one of the authors, their respective email addresses and, in the
event that the article is the results of research, information about the project
of which it is a part (name, funding information). It is necessary that this
information be included in the form for the sending of articles.
- The first time an acronym or abbreviation is used it should go between
parentheses after the complete expression. Subsequent times only the acronym or
abbreviation will be used.
- The “Revista de Estudios Sociales” uses the Chicago Manual of Style author-date style for presenting citations and references included in the
article. The required punctuation details (comma, period, colon, parentheses,
etc.) and the required information should be observed. The bibliographical
list should include the references which have been cited in the text (in a 1 to
1 relationship), enumerated and in alphabetical order. IT IS ESSENTIAL THAT
THE COMPLETE NAMES OF THE AUTHORS AND/OR EDITORS BE INCLUDED IN EACH ONE OF THE
REFERENCES.
