About the Journal

Objectives and Scope

The journal "Conocimiento y Acción" has been conceived as a space for reflection in a humanistic perspective; it means that we integrate all areas of knowledge in the human person, in the concern for the permanent elucidation of his being, for understanding the scope of his transcendent character and for the defence of his intrinsic dignity. Nothing is alien to our reading and research, if we are clear about its origin and its purpose: to clarify the magnificent immanence of the human being, that is, his capacity to build the future and, at the same time, to consider him in his openness to the creative Word.

From the perspective of "Conocimiento y Acción", it implies that we are concerned with placing culture at the center of our concerns.

The journal "Conocimiento y Acción" is an international, open access, indexed, peer-reviewed, double-blind academic journal. The average approval time for an article is only four weeks. It receives submissions in Spanish and English, and does not charge for publishing and publication is continuous, which means that the journal will publish a paper as and when it is accepted.

The editorial team of the “Conocimiento y acción” is particularly concerned with the journal’s ethical aspects and academic integrity, and not just as an object of study, but also as a workshop for best practices.

The journal "Conocimiento y Acción" tries to expand the frontiers of humanistic knowledge through its monographic issues. The chosen topics try to give new approaches to problems and propose new profiles in research topics.

Adhesion to International Declarations

“Conocimiento y Acción” is committed to open access with good practice related to research, authorship and scientific publishing, thus promoting compliance with the following statements at the various stages involved in the publication process:

 

Preservation of digital archives

“Conocimiento y Acción” supports the CLOCKSS (Controlled Lots of Copies Keep Stuff Safe) system as a permanent and secure archive for the journal. CLOCKSS is an open code program developed by the Library of Stanford University that enables libraries to preserve selected web-based magazines. It regularly searches registered journals to compile and file newly published contents. Each file is continuously validated against records from other libraries, so any contents that may be damaged or lost can be restored using those records or the journal itself.

The journal is also stored and viewed in the institutional repository SCRIPTA, which is managed by the Library of Universidad Panamericana. SCRIPTA enables the preservation of the documents published by the journal as well as retrieval through the different repository networks worldwide. Additionally, as a preventive measure in the event of system failure or discontinuity of the publication, the institutional Library will preserve restricted copies of the documents to ensure their perpetuity over time.

 

Access and Publication Costs

In compliance with open access policies, “Conocimiento y Acción” provides free access to all published articles and encourages the sharing and dissemination of texts at no cost to readers. The journal does not consider costs for authors associated with the publication of manuscripts.

 

Sponsorship and Funding

La revista “Conocimiento y Acción” is sponsored by the Universidad Panamericana, México.
