Sections
The Revista Vivat has four sections:
"Research Articles": are original and unpublished research results that follow the RIMRYD structure (Abstract, Introduction, Methodology, Results and Discussions) consistent with the Revista Vivat author guidelines, are evaluated and ruled from the double-blind peer review method. This template will be followed for articles.
"Review articles": This is a publication format in which an updated, critical and evaluative analysis is carried out, based on the study of the existing scientific literature, on a specific research problem: in no case is it exclusively a meta-analysis or an uncritical compilation of published research, but it must provide a new state of the question on the subject treated with an exhaustive use of the existing bibliography. This template will be followed for articles.
"Book reviews": Book reviews (maximum 500 words) will be published, according to the review template. Reviews must have a title different from that of the book reviewed, provide bibliographical data (publisher, ISBN, number of pages, prologue writer, DOI...) and be accompanied by a scanned cover (in .gif or .jpg). Reviews of books older than 3 years will not be accepted. The following template will be used for articles.
"Thematic monographs": This section will operate on a call for papers and will receive research articles with the same characteristics as those corresponding to that section. As it is a thematic section and by call for papers, it will have a specific time limit, after which no more papers will be received. Papers submitted to one of the thematic sections, which by editorial decision are considered not to belong to the same, if accepted by the Reviewers Committee will be published in the research articles section. This template for articles will be followed.
