Peer Review Process
All contributions go through the same evaluative and editorial process after online submission. The texts submitted to this journal are evaluated by the double-blind system (Double-blind Peers Review), granting the anonymity of the author(s) and the reviewer(s).
First, they are analyzed by the editorial team, which assesses the adequacy of the journal's norms and the proposal. If it meets the conditions for publication, the original is sent to two/two ad hoc reviewers for blind peer review. In the blind peer review phase, reviewers can recommend acceptance, rejection or modifications, which must be answered by the author. If there are notes for modifications, the author will be informed and invited to adapt the manuscript. Modifications will be evaluated again by the editorial team and, if necessary, by the reviewers. If there are conflicting recommendations in the first blind peer review, the editorial team will send the manuscript to a third ad hoc reviewer.
Reviews and interviews are evaluated by the editorial team, coordinated by an editor. If deemed necessary, these contributions can be forwarded to ad hoc reviewers.
We emphasize that each author can only have one original in the evaluation process. If there is an effective publication of your contribution, a period of one year (two issues) will be observed for the beginning of a new evaluation.
Conflicts of interest
Conflicts of interest can be academic, personal, political, commercial, financial or otherwise. Conflicts of interest are processes or situations in which authors, reviewers or editors have interests, visible or not, which may influence the production of data, the writing or the evaluation/review of the manuscript. The peer review process, the activity of editors and the credibility of the information present in the manuscripts are associated with the management of conflicts of interest.
The author(s) of the manuscript must obligatorily inform whether or not conflicts of interest exist by means of a declaration. This must be notified to the editorial team via the dialog box available in the submission in Discussion of Pre-Assessment and/or attach a document in Word for Windows transferred in supplementary documents. In manuscripts where there are conflicts of interest, this information must be included in a footnote at the beginning of the text.
The reviewer(s) must inform the editorial team of Fênix: Revista de História e Estudos Culturais about the presence of conflicts of interest declaring themselves not qualified to proceed with the evaluation of the manuscript.
The ad hoc consultant(s) must inform the editors of this journal of any conflicts of interest that may influence their opinion about the manuscript, and, if applicable, must declare if not qualified to give you opinion.
The editor(s), in turn, must communicate to the Editorial Board of Fênix: Journal of History and Cultural Studies in case there are conflicts of interest regarding the manuscript, so that the evaluation process is monitored by the body editorial.
