Definitions
Article: this is a previously unpublished text that reports on a new study or introduces an original theoretical discussion. It may be signed by more than one author. As of 10 August 2020, DILEMAS began to require that all authors of articles have a master’s degree.
Preprint: manuscript ready for submission to a journal that is deposited on an open-access Web server, either previously or in parallel with submission to a journal, for evaluation with a view to its formal publication as a peer-reviewed article. These servers are identified as preprint servers and must comply with a series of conditions to be recognized as trusted servers and, thus, authenticated by DILEMAS.
Interview: contribution in the form of a transcription of a conversation, with a person of interest to the themes addressed by DILEMAS, presented in a question-and-answer format. An interview may be signed by more than one author.
Review: contribution in the format of an analytical and or opinionative text about a written, dramatic or audiovisual work in the field of the journal published in the previous two (2) years. It should be signed by only one author. As of 10 August 2020, DILEMAS requires that all authors of reviews have a master’s degree.
Dossiers: DILEMAS occasionally publishes thematic dossiers, which may be initiated by the editors – for which it promotes a call for papers – or upon receipt of proposals, which can be sent at any time to the journal by e-mail. Proposals for dossiers are evaluated by the editors and by the Editorial Commission. A dossier is a group of at most 5 articles about a single theme, which are presented together for evaluation and publication in a single edition. Once the dossier proposed is approved, the responsibility for soliciting the articles is up to the organizers. All of the texts – except for the presentation of the dossier, which is analyzed by the editors – will be submitted to the criteria and norms of publication, and to all of the procedures for evaluation applied to any article sent to the journal.
Special Issues: DILEMAS occasionally publishes special thematic issues, with numbering distinct from the regular issues. This may be done when the editors understand it to be of interest – and when they will conduct a public call for papers – or to receive proposals based on content associated to an event or to another non-routine situation that influences the timing of publication. A proposal can be sent to the journal by email at any time and is evaluated by the editors and the Editorial Commission. The special issues of Dilemas result from proposals for dossiers about a single theme that have more than 05 articles to be published in a single edition.
Once the special issue proposed is approved, the responsibility for soliciting the articles is up to the organizers. This special issue will include the collaboration of a special editor related to the theme and its texts will be submitted to the same criteria and publication norms, and to all the evaluation procedures applied to any article sent to the journal – except when authors are invited to submit special articles. These will be evaluated by the editors, the Editorial Commission and by the special editor.
General standards:
The submissions should have a limit of 2MB, be sent in format .doc, .docx or a similar open-source word processing program, and standardized according to the norms ABNT NBR 6023/2018, and obey the following formal criteria:
Cover page: all of the submissions must be accompanied by a cover page with an abstract of 650 characters (with spaces), in Portuguese (resumo) and English, with the title translated into Portuguese; five keywords (also in both languages); and a brief summary of the authors curriculum, in the format:
NAME LAST NAME OF THE AUTHOR (e-mail) and [positions, beginning with the most important and with the complete names of the associated institutions (with initials in parentheses, and the city, except when it is explicit in the name, and the country, even if it is Brazil)]. And [education, from the highest to the lowest, including undergraduate level]. Orcid: [insert Orcid address].
Authorship and coauthorship: the people designated as authors must have participated actively in the drafting of the article, so that they can publicly assume responsibility for its content. The qualification of someone as an author presupposes involvement in the: a) conception and outlining or even analysis and interpretation of data, or both; b) writing of the manuscript or its critical editing; and c) review and final approval of the version to be published. In the case of submissions with multiple authors, the individual contributions of each one of the authors should be expressly indicated at the end of the text, only by the initials, as in the following example:
GFM worked in the conception and in the final drafting of the article and CMG worked on the analysis or interpretation of the data and on the final drafting of the article. The maximum number of authors named at the beginning of the article is eight; any other authors will be included at the end of the article.
Dilemas recommends the CRediT Taxonomy document.
Quotes: should be presented, as they are traditionally, within quotation marks, up to a limit of three lines of text. If they are longer than this, they should be placed in a separate block, with a single line of spacing before and after the text, in font 10 (ten) pts., with margins of 1 (one) cm to the left and single spacing.
Images: should be placed in the body of the article but should also be sent in separate files as a supplementary document, preferentially in JPEG format (with resolution of 300 dpi). If graphs or tables are used, in addition to being incorporated into the body of the article, they should be sent in image files that correspond to them, and if possible, the spreadsheets from which they originated.
Bibliographic references: the bibliographic references should be up to date with advances produced in each thematic field and object of research. We urge our authors to remain familiar with the updated bibliography in their field of study and we emphasize that this is an important criteria related to the currentness of the contribution published, and will be considered in the analysis by the reviewers and specialists, who are scholars that work in the same field of studies and research. Indexing databases of academic publications and similar catalogs usually recommend giving priority to bibliographic references and citations that were published in the past five years. When placed within the text, references should always be presented in parentheses, in the format: (AUTHOR, year, p. page number), for example: (WEBER, 2004, p. 117). If the pages cited form a sequence, use "pp.", followed by the initial-final page, as in the example: (BECKER, 2008, pp. 256-258). In the list of references, they should contain the complete names of the authors (for ex.: WEBER, Max) and should obey the following standards:
