Publication Ethics Statement

Publication Ethics Statement

The publication of Fedro is the collective result of the work and effort of authors, editors, and reviewers who are interested in the development of science for social and cultural development. For this reason, and within the framework of the open access policy, the journal will not charge the authors any fee for the publication, leaving the articles immediately available in open access.

The editors of the magazine undertake to avoid the existence of any conflict of interest between the actors involved in the production. All submitted texts will be evaluated for their intellectual content, preventing the ethnic or national origin of the authors, their gender, their sexual orientation, their religious beliefs, or their political philosophy from interfering in the process. In the same way, those external evaluations that interpose any personal position to the quality of the work will be rejected.

Authors and reviewers are requested to disclose in advance any relevant conflicts of interest that they may have, so that they can be taken into account when assigning reviews. If any conflict arises after the publication of the contribution, if necessary, a retraction or manifestation of the fact will be made.

A "conflict of interest" is understood as the situation in which there is a divergence between the personal interests of an individual and their responsibilities regarding the scientific activities they carry out, either as authors, reviewers and members of the editorial committee, which may influence their critical judgment and the integrity of their actions. Conflicts of interest can be:

Economic: when the participant (author/reviewer/editor) has received or expects to receive money for activities related to research and its dissemination

Academic: when reviewers or editors adhere to a certain methodological or ideological tendency in such a way that they may be biased to evaluate the work of others. For this reason you are asked to manifest in advance.

Personal or work relationships: when the participants (authors/reviewers/editors) have some kind of bond of friendship, enmity or work relationship. To avoid this, editors should take into account the sources of funding and the affiliation of the authors, to choose reviewers who do not belong to those specific circles.
