    The acceptance of a work for publication in the journal entails the transfer of copyright for purposes of printed, electronic, online, or any other means of dissemination.

Author Guidelines

1. Originality
The Revista Aragonesa de Administración Pública only accepts original and unpublished works for publication.

2. Objective, Theme, and Audience
The objective of the journal is to publish high-quality legal studies on Administrative Law aimed at the academic and professional community related to Public Administration.

3. Commitment
Submitting a paper to the Revista Aragonesa de Administración Pública entails a commitment not to withdraw it if the journal communicates its intention to publish it after the corresponding evaluation. It also implies a commitment not to publish the work elsewhere beforehand, as the paper cannot be withdrawn for submission to another journal (a right waived from the moment the work is submitted for evaluation), except in the case of a rejection by the Revista Aragonesa de Administración Pública, disagreement with the section of the journal where it would be published, or with the modifications required. Non-compliance with this requirement allows the journal to outright reject any other work submitted by the same author.

4. External Evaluation
The original manuscripts received are subject to anonymous evaluation by external specialists before being accepted by the Advisory Board and Editorial Board. The evaluation focuses on the formal, methodological, content-related aspects, and degree of originality of the works. If the evaluation is favorable, the study is published after acceptance by the Advisory Board (composed of members external to the publisher) and the Editorial Board (composed of members linked to the publisher). If the evaluation is negative, the study is not published, although if the reasons provided by the reviewer are not fully convincing to the Director of the Journal, the Advisory Board, or the Editorial Board, the work will be subjected to a second evaluation. If the evaluation is conditional, the reviewer’s observations are communicated to the author, who may resubmit their study with the appropriate corrections for further review, except when the issues raised are of minimal significance. Under no circumstances will the names of the reviewers responsible for an evaluation be disclosed; however, a list of these reviewers is periodically published in the journal.

5. Identifying Data
At the beginning of the published articles, the dates of receipt and acceptance of the manuscripts will be indicated, as well as the corresponding bibliographic header, which will also appear on each of its pages.

6. Copyright
The acceptance of a work for publication in the journal entails the transfer of copyright for purposes of printed, electronic, online, or any other means of dissemination. It also includes the right to include the work in the Biblioteca Virtual de Derecho Público Aragonés (www.derechoaragones.es) if its subject matter is suitable for inclusion.
