Veredas do Direito
Brief Background
|
The journal Veredas do Direito was created in 2004 so at Centro Universitário Dom Helder could interact with other national and foreign institutions. Since its first issue, it has published research by renowned national and foreign authors, evincing its concern with the exogeny of its content. The name of this journal was chosen in allusion to Guimarães Rosa’s Grande Sertão: Veredas. The idea arose from the various paths addressed by the journal due to its integration with various areas beyond Law. Its covers have always been designed according to their theme to convey their content to readers from their first visual contact with the journal. The journal once dedicated itself to the general theme of Law but since the opening of the Master’s Degree in Environmental Law and Sustainable Development at Centro Universitário Dom Helder In 2009, it became dedicated to its current line of research. |
Open Access
|
Veredas do Direito follows the open access model, offering unrestricted virtual access (including financial limitations) to all its scientific texts. Open access refers to a condition in which the copyright holders of academic articles grants rights of use to third parties using an open license (Creative Commons Attribution, CC-BY ), allowing immediate free access to them and authorizing any user to read, download, copy, distribute, print, search, or link the full text of the article; track them for indexing; or use them as software data or for any other lawful purpose. |
Open Science Compliance
|
Ethics in Publication
|
1. The intentional inclusion of questionable references to manipulate impact factors or increase the probability of acceptance of the manuscript constitutes an ethically unacceptable practice. 2. Authors have an ethical responsibility to report any evidence that contradicts their point of view. Moreover, the evidence to support their positions must be methodologically sound. 3. Authors have an ethical obligation to report all aspects of their research that may be relevant to the independent reproducibility of their research. 4. Only people who have significantly contributed to the research deserve authorship in manuscripts. Significant contributions include conducting experiments, participating in the elaboration of experimental planning, result analysis, or elaboration of the manuscript. Borrowing equipment, obtaining funding, or general supervision alone fail to justify the inclusion of new authors (who should nevertheless be acknowledged). 5. Collaboration between professors and students must follow the criteria above. Supervisors should take care the authorship of articles include no students with little or no contribution to them or exclude those with active participation in them. Phantom authorship constitutes an ethically unacceptable practice in science. 6. All authors are responsible for the veracity and competence of their research. The first and corresponding authors have full responsibility for their articles and the other authors, that of their individual contributions. 7. Authors must be able to describe their personal contribution to their research if requested. 8. All research, whether with animals or with human beings, must follow ethical standards. |
Focus and Scope
|
The object of interest of the journal Veredas do Direito revolves around themes directly related to the focus areas in the Graduate Program in Law at Centro Universitário Dom Helder: (1) Environmental Law and (2) Sustainable Development
Thus, the journal aims to offer an instrument to disseminate scientific and doctrinal works dedicated to aspects and elements that are related to such subjects, especially in Law.
(I) Law, sustainability, and human rights; Thus, the research and articles to be published in the journal must fit into at least one of the thematic axes that make up its editorial line. Eventually, at the discretion of the editorial board, an issue of the journal may dedicate itself to a certain thematic axis or even a specific matter within any of the suggested items. |

Preprints
|
In line with good Open Science communication practices, Veredas do Direito that encourage the publication of reliable preprints on the following servers: SciELO Preprints, arXiv, bioRxiv, and medRxiv. The acceptance of preprints from other servers will be reviewed by the journal editors. In these cases, authors must indicate the link to the published version of the article and its DOI, if any. In these cases, the evaluation system changes from double-blind to single blind peer review since the reviewers will know the authors’ identity, but the authors will not know the reviewers’ identity. In such cases, Veredas do Direito notes that reviewers may have to state a conflict of interest. |
Peer Review Process
|
Articles will be evaluated by peer review, i.e., they will be subjected to the approval of at least two evaluators with expertise on the addressed topics. The articles will be sent for evaluation without authorship identification. The originals will be immediately forwarded to the evaluators. Article selection involves an evaluation by experts and the Editorial Committee. In the summary, the sequence of article titles will obey the alphabetical order of authors’ surnames. In line with Open Science practices, Veredas do Direito offers authors and reviewers options for peer reviews (with or without name identification). Authorization to disclose names may be given by the authors at the time of the submission of their article and by the evaluators by filling out the Open Science Compliance Form. In the case of making public the evaluations that supported the decision to publish the chosen article, they may be edited by the Veredas do Direito editorial board. The contribution of section editors, if any, is to be duly credited in the published article. The evaluators will receive a statement of the manuscript opinion, and can validate such activity on Publons or Reviewer Credit. |
Open Data
|
Veredas do Direito encourages the sharing of analysis datasets, instruments, statistical analysis scripts, and additional materials by making them available in open online repositories, such as SciELO Data, Zenodo, Figshare, and OSF, in case the article does not contain them. The manuscript must indicate this information. Thus, the articles that communicate research should indicate and reference the availability of the content underlying the elaboration of that research and its results. |
Fees
|
Veredas do Direito charges no submission or processing fees. |
Ethics and Misconduct, Correction and Retraction Policy
|
The journal Veredas do Direito follows the guidelines of the Code of Conduct and Core Practices of the Committee on Publication Ethics (COPE). Submissions must meet these guidelines. We also adopted the Guidelines on best practices for strengthening ethics in scientific publication. If an article or publication must be retracted or if corrections or errata must be published, Veredas do Direito will follow the SciELO and COPE recommendations and guidelines, especially those in the Guidelines on best practices for strengthening ethics in scientific publication, the Guide for the publication of erratum, the Guide for the publication of retraction, and the COPE Retraction Guidelines. |
Policy on Conflict of Interest
|
Personal, commercial, academic, or financial conflicts of interest occur when authors, reviewers, or editors have interests that can influence manuscript preparation or evaluation. As for manuscript submissions, the authors must disclose financial or any other conflicts that may have influenced their research. Therefore, the authors must inform even potential cases of conflict of interest in a signed document to be attached to the submission platform. The authors must also identify in the manuscript any financial support toward their research and any other personal connection linked to their article. Editors and reviewers must also express any conflicts of interest that may influence their evaluation and decision and, if applicable, declare themselves unable to continue with the processing to avoid compromising ethical standards in the publication. |
Adoption of Similarity Software
|
All articles submitted to Veredas do Direito will be previously analyzed by the Turnitin plagiarism detector. Plagiarism is considered the appropriation of others’ ideas, processes, results, or words without giving them due credit. A paragraph without proper citation is enough for a manuscript to be returned to its authors. Regarding self-plagiarism, Veredas do Direito allows a maximum of 10% for articles or 50% when the manuscript results from master’s dissertations or PhD theses. Moreover, the manuscript will be returned to its authors, who can make the necessary changes and resubmit their article to the journal. Cases of plagiarism that are reported to the journal after articles are published will be analyzed by the editorial committee and, if the complaint is confirmed, the article will be immediately withdrawn from the journal. Penalties may also be applied to the perpetrators. |
Adoption of Software Using Artificial Intelligence Resources
|
Veredas do Direito is studying the possibility of adopting artificial intelligence in its editorial policy. |
Gender and Sex Issues
|
The Veredas do Direito editorial team and the authors who publish in the journal should always observe the guidelines on Sex and Gender Equity in Research – SAGER. They comprise a set of guidelines to report sex and gender information in study designs, data analyses, findings, and result interpretation. Veredas do Direito also observes gender equity policies in the composition of its editorial board. |
Ethics Committee
|
The committee will evaluate whether the submitted work used no research with human beings or, if so, if it obeyed the determinations of Resolution No. 196/96 of the National Health Council (CNS) and whether the research was approved by the Research Ethics Committee of the authors’ institutions or from wherever it was carried out, which is to be attached to the submission. It will also evaluate whether free and informed consent forms were collected and if they are in the possession of the authors, those responsible for the research, and/or institutions and if they are available for consultation and verification. |

Authors' Contribution
|
At the end, articles should describe the contribution of each author using two minimum authorship criteria: (a) actively participate in the discussions of the results and the (b) review and final approval of the research. Manuscripts that fail to specifically describe this suggest that all authors discussed the results and reviewed and approved the final article. Veredas do Direito recommends the CRediT Taxonomy. |
Manuscript Preparation
|
Texts must be submitted free of charge on the journal’s website after registration as “AUTHOR” (http://revista.domhelder.edu.br/index.php/veredas/user/register), following the submission steps. Veredas do Direito publishes original articles by researchers with a PhD or a PhD accompanied by a co-author with at least a bachelor’s degree in the areas of Environmental Law and related sciences who research topics under the journal’s perspective. We publish texts in Portuguese, Spanish, English, Italian, and French. Each author can submit only one text per journal issue and, having had a text published, can only resubmit after the interstice of two volumes (two years). Articles must use the third grammatical person (scientific writing). All texts must be reviewed before being submitted, and it is recommended that, before submission, they are sent to a professional proofreader. Veredas do Direito reserves the right to make normative, spelling, and grammatical changes to the originals to respect the cultured formal language, without, however, interfering in the style of the authors. Open Science Compliance Our editorial policy follows the Open Science communication modus operandi. In line with good Open Science communication practices, Veredas do Direito encourage the publication of reliable preprints on the following servers: SciELO Preprints, arXiv, bioRxiv, and medRxiv. The acceptance of preprints from other servers will be reviewed by the journal editors. In these cases, authors must indicate the link to the published version of the article and its DOI, if any. Importantly, in these cases the evaluation system changes from double-blind to single-blind by peers, in which the reviewers will know the authors of the article, but the authors will not know the identity of the reviewers. In such cases, Veredas do Direito notes that reviewers may express a conflict of interest in their evaluation of such research. In line with Open Science practices, Veredas do Direito offers authors and reviewers options to open the peer review process (with or without identification of their names). For this, the authors must authorize the disclosure of their names at the time of submission of their article, whereas evaluators (if they allow their names to be disclosed) must fill out the Open Science Compliance Form. The final version of the approved article will be published with the name of the editors responsible for manuscript evaluation. Finally, Veredas do Direito encourages the sharing of analysis datasets, instruments, statistical analysis scripts, and additional materials by making them available in open online repositories, such as SciELO Data, Zenodo, Figshare, and OSF, if the articles do not include them. The manuscript must indicate this information. Manuscripts must be accompanied by a declaration of the data that were used and generated in the research below the texts. Instructions to fill in the submission metadata All authors’ full name, email address, affiliation, and biographical profile must be provided with their correct spelling when entering metadata during submission. Affiliation is the author’s current academic bond. It must include the full name, acronym, municipality, state, and country of the institution. In the “Biographical profile” field of each author (which must be filled in), the first mention of the authors’ titles and the institutions in which they were obtained must be informed in descending order, including the acronym of the institution in parentheses, followed by its municipality, state, and country. From the second mention of that institution onward, only its acronym is to be indicated. Next, authors must inform their current affiliation. Reporting past affiliations, that is, terminated bonds, is forbidden. All authors and co-authors must inform the electronic address of their ORCID registration (which they must have) and the electronic address for their Lattes Curriculum, which is also mandatory for Brazilian authors or those linked to Brazilian educational institutions. Example: PhD in Law by Centro Universitário Dom Helder, Belo Horizonte/MG, Brazil. Bachelor in Law from Centro Universitário Dom Helder. Professor of the undergraduate course in Law at Centro Universitário Dom Helder. Authors must not mention their publications in the “Biographical Profile.”
The link to each author’s Lattes curriculum must be provided at the end of the “Biographical Profile.” It is requested that, before submitting the work, the data that identifies the authors by the reviewers be removed from the text, as well as the identifications on Word (in “File/Properties/Summary;” this path may vary depending on the version of Word used by the authors) to ensure double-blind peer reviews. Requirements for the articles Author: Single authors must have a minimum degree of PhD. Co-authorship: Veredas do Direito prefers articles with a maximum of two authors and admits no articles with more than three authors (their exceptional acceptance will be analyzed on a case-by-case basis), at least one of whom must have a minimum title of PhD to be credited as the main author, and the others (the co-authors) must have a minimum degree of bachelor. This journal prohibits the participation of undergraduate students. |

|
Graphic presentation of texts Texts must be submitted on a Word format, A4 size, “portrait” orientation, font 12, Times New Roman, with 1.5 spacing and the following margins: 3.0 cm top and left and 2.0 cm right and bottom. The first line of each paragraph should be spaced 1.5 cm apart from the left margin. Citations with more than three lines must have an indentation of 4.0 cm, font 10, and single line spacing.

Structure of the articles Articles must follow the following sequence:
Title The title must contain a maximum of eight words and be submitted in Portuguese/English. For articles in Spanish, the title must be submitted in Spanish/English. Automatic translations from the web will be rejected. If the translation is found to be inaccurate, the text will be returned to the author for correction within three working days under the penalty of rejection. Formatting of titles and subtitles TITLE OF THE ARTICLE (CENTERED, UPPERCASE, BOLD) TITLE OF THE ARTICLE IN ENGLISH (CENTERED, UPPERCASE, BOLD) 1 Primary section (left-aligned, upper-lowercase, bold) 1.1 Secondary section (left-aligned, lowercase, bold) 1.1.1 Tertiary section (left-aligned, lowercase, italics) 1.1.1.1 Quaternary Section (left-aligned, lowercase, italics, bold) 1.1.1.1.1 Quinary section (left-aligned, lowercase, no bold, no italics) Resumo Articles must be accompanied by two abstracts (Portuguese/English or Spanish/English) with the same content that clearly and concisely describe:
It is required that the abstract must span from 150 to 200 words. Automatic translations from the web will be rejected. If the translation is found to be inaccurate, the text will be returned to the author for correction within three working days under the penalty of the rejection of their article. Keywords In a minimum number of three and a maximum of five lowercase words in alphabetical order (except when the use of capital letters is indispensable, as with proper names) and separated by semicolons, the authors are to indicate the content of their article. They should be preferably chosen from a catalog of controlled vocabulary if a thesaurus in their research area exists. Keywords must be written in Portuguese/English. For texts in Spanish, the keywords must be written in Spanish/English. Automatic translations from the web will be rejected. If the translation is found to be inaccurate, the text will be returned to the author for correction within three working days under the penalty of rejection. Introduction The Introduction should only introduce and delimit the subject of the article, description of the objectives of the research and other elements needed to situate the theme of the article. It must therefore contain no direct or indirect quotations. The Introduction should neither copy nor paraphrase the abstract. Final considerations The conclusions/final considerations should only describe the considerations corresponding to the objectives and/or hypotheses of the article. They should neither summarize the discussion of the article nor constitute a version of the Introduction in another verbal tense. Observations

Additional Information
|
All approved works will receive their respective Digital Object Identifier (DOI) at the time of their final publication in Veredas do Direito. Code of Conduct and Core Practices The journal Veredas do Direito follows the guidelines of the Code of Conduct and Core Practices of the Committee on Publication Ethics (COPE). Submissions must meet these guidelines. We also adopt the Guidelines on best practices for strengthening ethics in scientific publication. Evaluation process Articles submitted via the journal website will undergo two phases of evaluation: the first one will be carried out by the editorial team to evaluate compliance with the Guidelines for Authors. In case of approval, the article will be sent for a blind peer review (the second phase of their evaluation), in which the article may be approved, approved with mandatory corrections, or rejected. In all cases, the editorial decision and evaluations will be sent by email to the authors—in case of co-authorship, to the co-author who registered in the submission as the main contact. In the case of approval with mandatory corrections, the author will have five working days (a period that may be extended depending on the complexity of the requested corrections) to send the corrected version of their article via the journal system, which will be checked by the editorial team. If the corrections are unsatisfactory, further adjustments may be necessary or, as the case may be, the article may be rejected. Lack of response from the authors to the request for corrections may also cause the rejection of the article. Exogeny
To comply with the requirement of the Coordination for the Improvement of Higher Education Personnel (CAPES) regarding the exogeny of articles, Veredas do Direito avoids publishing articles whose authors are linked to institutions in Minas Gerais, except for those linked to Centro Universitário Dom Helder. All articles submitted to Veredas do Direito will be previously analyzed by the Turnitin plagiarism detector. Plagiarism is considered the appropriation of ideas, processes, results, or words of others without giving them due credit. A paragraph without proper citation is enough for the manuscript to be returned to the author(s). For cases of self-plagiarism, Veredas do Direito allows a maximum of 10% for articles or 50% when the manuscript is the result of a master’s dissertation or PhD thesis. Additionally, the manuscript is returned to the authors, who can make the necessary changes and resubmit their article to the journal. Cases of plagiarism reported to the journal after the publication of the articles will be analyzed by the editorial committee and, if the complaint is confirmed, the article will be withdrawn from the journal immediately. Penalties may also be applied to the perpetrators. Detection of use of artificial intelligence resources All articles submitted to Veredas do Direito will be previously analyzed on Plagius, which detects the use of Artificial Intelligence resources. Veredas do Direito is studying the possibility of adopting artificial intelligence in its editorial policy. Publication priority The following articles will enjoy publication priority:
Compliance with the guidelines for authors The editorial board and team reserve the right in the pre- or post-evaluations to point out necessary corrections and complements in the received articles, returning them to the authors for due adaptation to the standards of this journal. After the check-list and pre-evaluation by the editorial team, if approved, the articles will go to external evaluators. All evaluated texts that indicate mandatory corrections, pointed out in an opinion and/or comments, must be reviewed by the authors and returned for further evaluation by the editorial team within five working days (or more depending on the complexity of the requested corrections). In case of deviations from the standard use of the language, the articles must undergo a thorough and careful textual review, preferably by a professional reviewer, to be hired by the authors. Right to appeal against editorial decisions Authors are guaranteed the right to appeal against all editorial decisions. The appeal must be sent to the email of this journal (veredas@domhelder.edu.br), with the complete identification of the article (submission number and full title) and the authors, appeal grounds, and other relevant documents. The decision on the appeal will be forwarded to the appellant within seven working days. Ethics Veredas do Direito mainly aims to produce solid scientific knowledge based on an editorial process that involves controlling, evaluating, and reviewing manuscripts via parameters of scientificity and integrity in line with national and international bodies and institutions focused on scientific publishing. Ethical conditions for the publication of articles
1. The intentional inclusion of questionable references to manipulate impact factors or increase the probability of acceptance of the manuscript constitutes an ethically unacceptable practice. 8. All research, whether with animals or with human beings, must follow ethical standards. |
