About the Journal
Periférica is an open space, promoting reflection on knowledge and the analysis of culture. It is a forum in which to express ideas, debate cultural management and to participate and give feedback through the different sections and editorial lines. This forum gathers texts that provide knowledge to the cultural management field in its broadest sense, knowledge regarding heritage, museums, tourism, scenic arts, or ethnology.
All articles published in Periférica are originals and have not been previously published and shall not be simultaneously submitted for publication to any other journal. These articles must be related to culture. This journal accepts research articles, opinion articles, creations, and essays.
Periférica is an annual journal, and its main goal is to contribute to the literature and analysis of culture and territory, as well as to the training of cultural managers and to the dissemination of original works. These original works are born from research, theoretical reflections, debates, essays and critical reviews on topics related to the general study of cultural management and, notably, sociology, territory, philosophy, arts, education and research.
Periférica presents two types of sections: one restricted to the publication of requested articles aimed at writers, journalists, cultural managers, lecturers and researchers (Chronicles, Monographs, Topics, Interviews…), and an open section, divided into a further two sections: Experiences and Ópera prima, aimed at fostering research studies and contributions from experts developing their research or activities in the cultural management field and to students from Degree, Master Degree and Doctorate programmes willing to submit a manuscript arising from their training. The Editorial Board will assess the works and decide which section is the most appropriate for the publication of each manuscript.
Periférica Internacional. Revista para el análisis de la cultura y el Territorio offers open and free access to all its contents.

Double-blind peer review
The manuscripts received are, first of all, subject to the decision of the Editorial Board, where it is determined whether the documents received are connected to the thematic line of the journal, are potentially interesting for its readers, and follow the publication and author guidelines. The Editorial Board may reject a manuscript without having previously assessed it, whether it is considered that it does not adhere to form or content guidelines or that it does not tie in with the thematic line.
Articles published in the Experiences and Ópera prima, sections of this Journal will undergo a “peer” and “double-blind” review in which at least two expert reviewers, external experts who do not belong to the journal, will assess the contents of the article, resorting to a third reviewer if necessary. Therefore, authors must exclude their names and affiliations from the manuscripts.
The Editorial Board will decide upon the publication or rejection of articles in light of the external reports.
The aforementioned experts will upload the corresponding reports and their decision to the web application of the journal. The secretary or the editor responsible for the process will communicate the decision to the authors.
This decision may be:
Submission accepted
Publishable with amendments
Resend for review
Resend to a different publication
Not publishable
Every published article will show the receipt and acceptance dates.
