2. Publication & Arbitration

The publication of all the works is free as long as they approve the arbitration of the journal. The arbitration is contributive, that is, a contribution is required to guarantee the arbitration.

 

Anonymous expert arbitrators evaluate the quality of the work and give their opinion in about 45 days so that Negotium can respond to the author as soon as possible. With the Contribution to the Promotion of Research made by the authors to the Unamuno Foundation, Negotium offers an economic collaboration to the arbitrators and covers part of the subsidy for other researchers as well as the research-training programs of the Unamuno Foundation.

 

Once Negotium communicates the suggestions and recommendations to the authors, they have one month to make the corrections suggested by the arbitrators. If the author does not respond within one month to the report communicated by Negotium via e-mail, the work submitted must begin a new arbitration.

 

Only articles approving the arbitration are published.

 

The final decision to publish is made by the Editorial Committee

 

The decision of the arbitrators and the Editorial Committee is unappealable.

 

Arbitration work is secret. The Editorial Committee does not discuss with the authors the recommendations of the arbitrators or the Committee.

 

All communication is exclusively by electronic means.

 

3. Contribution from the authors

The authors contribute to the Promotion of Research on behalf of the Unamuno Foundation. The Unamuno Foundation sponsors the journal Negotium to cover part of the administrative and placement costs of the journal in global settings. The Unamuno Foundation returns benefits to researchers in the following manner:

1)Subsidizes researchers by accelerating the response time of arbitration.

2) Placing the magazine in prestigious international indexes and databases to increase dissemination, visibility, and impact.

3) Granting new researchers and teams that publish for the second and third time.

4) It promotes diverse courses related to Management Sciences and Science Communication.

USD $450, up to three authors, and USD $150 for each additional author.
