- The file submitted is in Microsoft Word format, RTF or Open Office.
-
The extension does not exceed the length established by ESIR, which varies according to the section:
- Research articles, which include: a) we welcome theoretical, empirical and methodological papers; b) case studies (experiences and good practices); and c) provocative notes (controversial and speculative ideas). *Full-length papers of up to 5000 - 6000 words.*
- Books/articles reviews: we welcome books/articles reviews. *Full-length papers of up to 1000 - 1500 words.*
-
The manuscript includes the following items:
- Title.
- Abstract (100-150 words).
- Between 5 and 8 words.
- Images and photos of excellent quality, so that the publication of the work will not be delayed for this reason.
-
The text meets the bibliographic, format and style requirements specified in the Author Guidelines, which can be found in "About the Journal".
There are no references in the References section that are not cited in the text. (This condition is added in order to avoid the unnecessarily inflation of the bibliography)
- The document is free of data identifying the author and coauthors. (I have checked that the ‘File > Properties’ option of the Word document does not contain any information identifying the author and co-authors.)
- All authors have been registered in the OJS platform managed by ESIR. Otherwise, the names of the unregistered co-authors will not appear next to the author’s when the paper will be published. I also confirm that the order of the co-authors is correct.
