GENERAL CONSIDERATIONS FOR SUBMITTING PAPERS

The submission of papers for its further publication depends on the favorable review of two external assessors. It is required that the work is unpublished, original and not under evaluation elsewhere.

In case an author would like to publish in a different journal or medium a paper previously published on Potestas by themselves, they should mention Potestas as the original publication. If further questions arise, please contact Potestas publication team.
