Publishing process

The manuscripts shall be sent by e-mail to revistafiguras@acatlan.unam.mx .

Manuscripts will not be admitted through any other means. Should it be the work of several authors, the addressee —that one who sends the manuscript for its publication and who will keep in touch with Figūras through the whole process— must include the coauthors’ full name from the very beginning, adding each one’s ORCID code (Open Researcher and Contributor ID).

Editors will initially review the manuscripts submitted to FIGURAS REVISTA ACADÉMICA DE INVESTIGACIÓN. Then they will collate them according to the manuscript checklist in order to verify their adjustment to the journal’s publishing policies, as well as to assess the manuscripts’ profile. Once checked and valued, they will be addressed to three expert reviewers in the field.

Checking that the manuscript fulfills the journal’s publishing policies and every aspect in the manuscript checklist before sending it, is essential.

Should the author’s first language happen to be different from either Spanish or English, the texts must be submitted to a previous review process. This will be conducted by a certified and specialized in translation copyeditor, which would avoid its initial disapproval due to errors related to the use of language. The author will process this review and will provide FIGURAS REVISTA ACADÉMICA DE INVESTIGACIÓN with the specialist´s name and certification.

To begin the acceptance process, the author must send the manuscript (according to the guidelines of each academic field), the checklist, and the Code of Ethics letter of FIGURAS REVISTA ACADÉMICA DE INVESTIGACIÓN.
