Submission Preparation Checklist

As part of the submission process, authors are required to check off their submission's compliance with all of the following items, and submissions may be returned to authors that do not adhere to these guidelines.
  • All scientific texts must be submitted through the Electronic System for Journal Editing (SEER) / Open Journal Systems (OJS).
  • Submitted manuscripts must be original and unpublished, and must fall within the scope of the journal. Work that has been presented or published in conference proceedings, institutional repositories, or authors' personal websites are accepted.
  • Manuscripts must be original and not under consideration by another journal, regardless of language.
  • Manuscripts must be anonymized. This includes removing all identifying information regarding the authors and their institutions from the manuscript and references.
  • Manuscripts must be structured according to the formatting guidelines presented in the " Manuscript Submission Format" section.
  • Author information must be submitted in a separate file, uploaded as a supplementary document, as instructed in the " Manuscript Submission Format" section.
  • In the case of co-authored scientific texts, the contribution of each author should be identified in accordance with CRediT - Contributor Roles Taxonomy: Conceptualization; Data curation; Formal analysis; Funding acquisition; Investigation; Methodology; Project administration; Resources; Software; Supervision; Validation; Visualization; Writing – original draft; Writing – review & editing. Texts signed by more than 3 authors will not be allowed.
  • Texts may be written in Portuguese, Spanish or English.
  • Authors are responsible for covering the costs of copy editing and/or translation services for manuscripts approved for publication. These services are provided by professionals accredited by the RBEUR Editorial Board and adhere to fees previously agreed upon with the Board. This measure constitutes an Article Processing Charge (APC) and is necessary for the economic sustainability and quality assurance of the journal, which, by applying an open access model to its publications, forgoes financial support from its readers.
  • The content of the manuscript is the sole responsibility of the authors, who must, however, inform the editors of any potential conflicts of interest - personal, commercial, political, academic, or financial - that may have influenced the submitted material, and must clarify how such conflicts have been resolved. In addition, authors must explicitly state in the manuscript any financial support received, including any economic or personal connections that enabled the work to be completed.
  • Authors should send the following complementary documents:

When using images from third parties or images captured on the internet, the corresponding authorizations must be presented.

Citations and References

All bibliographic references should adhere to the standards established by the Brazilian Association of Technical Standards (ABNT), placed at the end of the text, in alphabetical order, according to the examples below:

* Book: SANTOS, M. A natureza do espaço: técnica e tempo, razão e emoção. São Paulo: Hucitec, 1996.

* Journal article: PIQUET, R. P. S.; RIBEIRO, A. C. T. Tempos, ideias e lugares: o ensino do Planejamento Urbano e Regional no Brasil. Revista Brasileira de Estudos Urbanos e Regionais, v. 10, n. 1, p. 49-59, mai. 2008.

* Chapter from a book: LAFER, C. O Planejamento no Brasil: observações sobre o Plano de Metas (1956-1961). In: LAFER, B. M. Planejamento no Brasil. 3. ed. São Paulo: Perspectiva, 1975. p. 29-50.

* Paper published in conference proceedings: VAINER, C. B. As escalas do poder e o poder das escalas: o que pode o poder local? In: ENCONTRO NACIONAL DA ANPUR, 9, 2001, Rio de Janeiro. Anais do IX Encontro Nacional da Anpur. Rio de Janeiro: ANPUR, 2001. p. 140-151.

* When citing a work with three or fewer authors, list all of the authors' names in the same order as they appear in the source. If there are more than three authors, either the coordinators, organizers or editors of the work should be cited (for example: LEME, M. C. (Coord.). O urbanismo no Brasil: 1895-1965. São Paulo: Studio Nobel; FAUUSP; FUPAM, 1999); or “et al.” should be used (for example, LEME, M. C. et al. O urbanismo no Brasil: 1895-1965. São Paulo: Studio Nobel; FAUUSP; FUPAM, 1999).

Citations included throughout the text should follow the form (Author, date) or (Author, date, page), e.g.: (Leme, 1999) and (Santos, 1996, p. 217). If there is more than one title by the same author published in the same year, they must be differentiated by including a letter after the date, e.g.: (Santos, 1996a); (Santos, 1996b), etc.

When there is no information available regarding references, use “s.n.”, “s.l.” and “s.d.” for, respectively, sine nomine (without name), sine loco (without place) and sine data (without date).

The works cited in the footnotes will not be marked as references by Scielo, and must be used in a specific manner (e.g., indicating additional reading). Works cited exclusively from the notes must be referred to in full in the note itself and excluded from the list of bibliographic references located at the end of the text.

If the reference is identified with the elocation-id, this should be informed in the citation. For example: SILVA, J. História das Religiões Afro-Brasileiras. Revista de História da UEG, v. 08, n. 01, e201901, 2019.
