Sending originals for evaluation and publication implies acceptance of these conditions, as well as authorization to the Asociación Proyecto Clío for their possible subsequent dissemination in different media, provided that the authorship of each article is maintained. Authors will send a declaration of authorship and transfer of rights and a cover letter.

EVALUATION PROCESS

Articles and reviews are evaluated by double blind peers. Once two evaluations have been received, the article is accepted for publication if both are positive and if the evaluators suggest any modification prior to acceptance, this is communicated to the authors so that they can proceed to review the work and send a second version. If there is discrepancy between the evaluators, it is referred to a third reviewer. Since  2021 the CLIO editorial team is committed to providing a first response within a maximum period of 4 months.

ACCEPTANCE RATE

Since 2011, the annual acceptance rate has varied between 63% (minimum in 2020) and 86.11% (maximum in 2015).
