Accepted Types of Contributions
Revista Latina de Comunicación Social (RLCS) accepts and publishes original contributions that undergo a rigorous peer review process under the double-blind system, ensuring the anonymity of both authors and reviewers.
The types of manuscripts considered for publication are as follows:
1. Research Articles
These are original and unpublished contributions presenting results derived from scientific research. Their purpose is to validate and disseminate findings within the academic community. Research articles must follow a clear and well-supported methodological structure. See template.
2. Review Articles
This type of contribution involves an up-to-date, critical, and value-added analysis based on existing scientific literature on a specific research topic or problem. It is not a mere compilation of previous studies, but a review that provides an original and relevant state of the art on the subject. See template.
3. Book Reviews
RLCS also publishes brief book reviews of up to 500 words on works relevant to the fields of communication and social sciences. Reviews are subject to internal editorial screening, based on the objective relevance, timeliness, and academic interest of the books being reviewed. See template.
