RACC receives articles by authors of any nationality, in Spanish, English or Portuguese. However, the official language of the journal is Spanish.

Papers should be no longer than 20 pages for empirical research; an extension of 30 pages for the work of theoretical or methodological review; and an extension of 10 pages for short papers. These reviews should be reviews of recent publications and should not exceed 1,000 words and include a bibliography (if references are included within the text should be complete, including number of pages and ISBN). In the case of empirical research, 20 pages including references, tables and graphs, double-spaced on A4 paper size, on one side, with 3 cm margins and numbered at the top, alignment outside, and the recommended font is Times New Roman 12 pt, without using indents.

In the case of the work of theoretical or methodological review and brief communications, the page limit (30 and 10 respectively) refers only to the text. Figures and tables (one per sheet) will be included in an appendix at the end of the text, after the references.

No notes to footer accepted; those which are absolutely necessary in the text should be numbered with consecutive Arabic numerals and shall be written on a separate sheet at the end of work.

The authors will endeavor that the text does not contains suggestions that identify them. So then, the title page of the manuscript should not have primary data of the authors. The author data should be attached in a separate file, which will contain job title, name, institutional affiliation and contact details.

The RACC employs an electronic platform for the receipt, review and decision to publish articles. Specifically, used OJS (Open Journal Systems). Once prepared the article following the guidelines for authors, the documents will be uploaded via the website of the journal: http://revistas.unc.edu.ar/index.php/racc/index. All correspondence, including notification of the Editor's decision and requests for revision, takes place via mail, eliminating the need for hard copy paper. The final decision on publication of the work takes into account such concepts and communicates the author with a summary of the comments received. In any case, the authors are responsible for the contents of the article, as well as obtain the appropriate permissions to use material published in any other source.
