Author Guidelines

REVESCO publishes original research works focused on introducing the latest contributions that deal with “Participation Companies” (Social Economy). These works are a support for the research made in this field and at the same time they assure the journal's success in the academic world.
Authors interested in submitting unpublished typed originals for publication should notice that the same work can't be published and will not be published in any other medium.

Papers are evaluated by two external referees (in case of discrepancy the report be asked to a third referee). The articles' selection is based on the scientific level and the latest contributions dealing with “participation companies” (Social Economy) and being a support for the research projects made in this field. Articles may be accepted, revised to a different degree or refused.
