Within the framework of its study and research functions, the Aragonese Institute of Public Administration publishes and disseminates the Aragonese Journal of Public Administration, aimed at publishing high-quality legal studies in the field of Administrative Law, addressed to the academic and professional community related to Public Administration.
It is a biannual journal of a predominantly legal nature, whose purpose is the creation and dissemination of scientific knowledge in the field of Administrative Law, promoting reflection and debate on current legal issues, without excluding studies related to other branches of the economic and social sciences.
RArAP was founded in 1992 and, since its inception, has consistently pursued its commitment to promoting and disseminating scientific and documentary works of interest to Aragón. Evidence of this is the editorial volume available, which has now exceeded 60 published issues, not including monographs.
In 2026, we begin a new stage of online publishing for the electronic journals of the Aragonese Institute of Public Administration, using the open-source platform Open Journal Systems (OJS). Thus, we inaugurate a vehicle that brings us closer to scientific and research work, in line with the principles of universal accessibility to information demanded by the academic community.
