Each issue of the journal represents a different theme. You may send us an article if you are interested in one of the journal’s themes or if a theme is in your field of expertise.
We invite you to consult the Editorial Chart and Instructions to Authors on the Érudit platform before submitting your article. This link will provide further information on the editing rules of the Aequitas journal and some tips on how to write a scientific article.
You may submit an article to Aurélie Petibon, the journal’s editorial secretary, at [email protected]. You will receive an email confirmation within 5 days. In the following weeks, you will be informed whether the Editorial Committee will send your article to the second stage of peer evaluation.
First of all, if you would like to submit an article to the Aequitas journal, we ask that you send us a letter of intent with the following information:
Please send your file to [email protected].
All articles submitted for publication in the journal are first sent to the journal’s editor-in-chief. He or she will then ensures that the article proposed corresponds to the letter of intent previously sent, and that it fits with the topic of the issue requested and the journal’s orientation. If the article is rejected at this point in the assessment process, the author(s) will not be able to have the decision reviewed by the editor-in-chief.
If a proposed article is accepted, it will go on to the second stage in the assessment process: peer evaluation. Two evaluators will be asked to read and comment on the text using a double-blind method. They will also be asked to ensure the article respects the provisions in the Author’s Guidelines
Once the evaluations have been sent to the editor-in-chief, a summary of the comments is prepared to be given to the article’s author(s). Certain changes to the text may be recommended or required to be done within a one-month period before the article will be accepted for publication. When a new version of the article is required, a second peer evaluation process will be undertaken.
The editor-in-chief may decide to accept or reject an article at any time and recommend that style or content-related changes be made to it.
At any time, you may submit an article that does not fall under the themes of the Aequitas journal.
We’re always looking for off-topic articles. Therefore we invite experienced researchers, graduate and PhD students to submit their original article whether they stem from academic, experiential or professional knowledge.
