The Revista Ciencias Sociales has several sections, some of which are peer-reviewed and others reviewed by the Editorial Committee.

Articles received for refereed sections are submitted to the process detailed below:

The arbitration system will be carried out by a group of independent experts, under the supervision of the Editorial Committee. Suitable articles undergo a review through the “double blind” arbitration system, where experts, always with an academic degree equal to or higher than that of the author of the article reviewed, anonymously attest to the academic quality of the article and submit their recommendation through the evaluation report provided for this purpose.
The readers anonymously determine whether the article is: a) Publishable; b) Publishable with adjustments or; c) Not publishable.

In case the results of the peer reviewers are contradictory, a third opinion will be requested, which will be decisive.
The results of the arbitration process are final in all cases.
Once this process is completed, the journal communicates to all authors the decisions and reports of the peer reviewers.

Objectivity, transparency and impartiality are guaranteed throughout the blind peer review process.
