Submissions

Author Guidelines

Proposed contributions must be sent through the journal's platform generating a username and password. You can also choose to send contributions to philosophia@ffyl.uncu.edu.ar, with a copy to philosophia.uncuyo@gmail.com.

Sending an article to Philosophia implies its originality and the fact that it is not being considered for publicatio in other journal. Hence, every author, prior to the evaluation process, must declare by means of the letter sent to him, the originality and the transfer of rights of his written work. The fact that the works have been communicated to scientific societies, or published in the form of "Abstracts", is not an obstacle to their publication.

Guidelines for authors

- The papers must be sent in electronic format, saved as a Word document or rtf, by e-mail to philosophia@logos.uncu.edu.ar. Reception of all texts will be acknowledged by an e-mail reply.

- All papers are submitted to the evaluation system. The decision will be communicated as soon as possible.
