Submissions

Author Guidelines

Papers submitted for publication in Revista Poiésis are assessed by a body of independent reviewers, external to Universidade Federal Fluminense, through the double-blind review system, which means that the identities of the author(s) and reviewers are preserved throughout the review process. Preliminarily, each paper submitted to Revista Poiésis is evaluated by the Editors (Editor and Associate Editors) regarding the adherence of the paper to the academic scope of the journal, as well as its adequacy to scientific standards. If approved in the first stage, the work is sent to at least two (2) external reviewers, who issue opinions recommending acceptance, refusal or suggesting changes to the author(s). If there are significant disagreements between the reviewers' opinions, a third reviewer is requested to collaborate in order to substantiate the final editorial decision.

The Editors assume that the submission of the work to the publication in Revista Poiésis indicates its originality, that is, that it has not yet been published in any other journal. The Editors also request that authors indicate their ORCID Id (orcid.org) in the process of submitting their work to Revista Poiésis.

In the evaluation of the works submitted to Revista Poiésis, the following aspects are considered:
(1) adequacy to the scope of the journal;
(2) the originality of the reflection proposed by the work;
(3) the relevance of the issues addressed to the study area;
(4) updating and relevance of bibliographic resources;
(5) objectivity and clarity of expression and use of adequate technical-scientific language.

All submitted papers go through the same evaluation process until accepted for publication. Revista Poiésis editors work with the expectation that the whole process of evaluation, review, processing, and publication (when applicable) of the submissions to Revista Poiésis will be completed in a period between 12 and 15 weeks.

IMPORTANT: Revista Poiésis does not charge any submission or publication fees, or of any other nature in its processes, being an academic vehicle directed to the Brazilian and international scientific community.

Multiple Authorship Statement (for works with more than one author)
In the case of work with more than one author submitted to Revista Poiésis, the authors must include, in the end, a brief statement that the shared authorship is based on the fact that: (1) all authors actively participated in the discussions around the scope, concepts, eventual results and elaboration of the work; and (2) all authors reviewed and approved the final version of the work.
Note: The statement in question will not appear in the final version of the work when published in the journal.

Errata and retractions
The Editors clarify that, when necessary, Revista Poiésis will publish, as soon as possible, errata forwarded by the authors referring to papers published in the journal. Likewise, when necessary, the Editors will be responsible for the publication of eventual retractions.

Recognition of research funding
Revista Poiésis strongly recommends that authors make a mention and recognition of the funding agencies that have supported their research, even if through partial funding. To this end, it requests that a mention be made at the end of the body of work (before the Notes and References) or, alternatively, as the first note at the end of the text.

Ethics in Research
Revista Poiésis expresses its full adherence to the practices of academic research developed with absolute ethical rigor, as recommended in the Code of Good Scientific Practice of the Foundation for the Support of Research in the State of São Paulo (FAPESP) and the Principles of Transparency and Good Practices in Academic Publications, developed jointly by the Committee on Publication Ethics (COPE), the Directory

In this sense, the publication seeks to respond to any ethical deviations that may be pointed out or detected throughout the process of scientific research and/or the dissemination of its results, through publication within the journal. For this purpose, Poiésis Journal dedicates special attention to the ethical aspects of scientific research and knowledge production that may impact the publication in the journal, which includes, among other aspects: authorship issues, collaboration and consent for publication; research on vulnerable populations; ethical issues when involving research with animals or human subjects; and manipulation of data and results.

Furthermore, as it is a journal published without any financial purpose, which entails exemption from any fee or any other form of monetary involvement in its production processes, and as it is linked to a Brazilian public university, Poiésis Journal is very sensitive and remains attentive to any manifestation or practice that may result in unauthorized commercial use.

In line with the above mentioned codes and principles, Revista Poiésis is committed to act on the ethical issues listed below, among others:

• Allegations of misconduct in research

• Complaints and appeals

• Conflicts of interest
  Revista Poiésis seeks to identify and act upon any conflicts of interest throughout the submission, editing and publication processes involving authors, reviewers, referees, editors and other collaborators, gathering, whenever necessary, the magazine's board of directors, composed of the Editor-in-Chief and Associate Editors, to find the appropriate solution to the issues raised.

In confronting these and other issues related to allegations or evidence of non-compliance with the best ethical practices of research and scientific dissemination, the Revista Poiésis will meet whenever necessary its administrative council, composed of the Editor-in-Chief and the Associate Editors, to examine the issues brought to its attention and to take the necessary and applicable measures. These examination and debate processes will be made in order to preserve the identity of those involved.

Whenever necessary, the Editorial Board of Poiésis Journal will use the pages of the publication itself, always in its subsequent edition, for clarifications and/or retractions regarding ethical issues that have arisen and duly analyzed within the scope of the journal.
