Basic information
cadernos pagu - ISSN 1809-4449 online version
cadernos pagu – an interdisciplinary triannual journal, accepts articles from various fields of knowledge (anthropology, political science, communications, law, education, history, history of science, language, literature, linguistics, psychology, public health, sociology and others), which, considering the articulations between gender and other differences (race/ethnicity, culture, class, age/generation, sexuality and others), establish a dialog with gender and feminist theories, and help broaden knowledge in this field of studies. The articles should consider the relations of the problematics examined with the social and political contexts in which they are situated. Dialog with authors of various origins is equally important. Contributions in Portuguese, Spanish and English are welcome. The content of the work signed is solely the responsibility of the authors, as is the selection of the keywords. cadernos pagu is an online, open-access journal and is free of charge. All of the material published, even in the period prior to its indexation on SciELO, is available at http://www.pagu.unicamp.br/pt-br/cadernos-pagu e http://periodicos.sbu.unicamp.br/ojs/index.php/cadpagu sections
Behind The Scenes of The Production of Feminist Knowledge a section of the journal cadernos pagu dedicated to the reflection and publication of raw research materials, which can contribute to the development and problematization of varied and important questions to feminist thought and knowledge. It aims to make academic processes visible through which articles, reviews and dossiers are made. The section is subdivided into two subsections: Documents and Critical Comments. Documents publishes research materials such as interviews; documentary sources; photographs, accompanied by an introduction that justifies the relevance of publicizing these materials for the development of feminist knowledge production. Submissions to the section must be made by letter to the publisher, always respecting. Submitted documents are evaluated by the editorial committee. The introduction can have a maximum of 2500 words. The submission must be unpublished and anonymous. In Critical Comments, evaluations will be published, issued by ad hoc referees, of articles approved for publication in the journal. The decision about which opinions will be published as Critical Comments in the journal concerns the Editorial Committee of the cadernos pagu. Dossier A dossier is an articulated and heterogeneous set of articles (between five and ten), which offers critical reflection about the theme in focus, and its various and diverging theoretical, conceptual, and methodological sources. Proposals for a dossier should be sent to the journal editors in Portuguese and English, justifying 1) the historic and current relevance of the proposal for feminist and gender studies, articulated to other differences; 2) the divergences or tensions contemplated and the contributions to the expansion upon, improvement and or deepening of the theme and its impact on various disciplinary fields (from 6,500 to 12,000 characters with spaces). Proposals for dossiers submitted to cadernos pagu will be evaluated by the journal’s editorial committee. In case of approval, an open call for papers will be published on the journal’s homepage (for two months) for the submission of articles. The proponents who will coordinate the dossier will at first receive expanded abstracts (from 6,500 to 12,000 characters with spaces) with proposals for articles. The expanded abstracts should present the plan for the article, with details of: a) the object of analysis; b) an outline of the theoretical-methodological debate that supports the argument; c) a demonstration of how the article proposed advances or innovates the state of the art of the field of gender studies and feminist theories in dialog with the theme of the dossier. After selection of the abstracts by the coordinators of the dossier, the authors should submit their article on the Plataforma Scielo within three months. In this step, all the articles will be submitted individually over the Plataforma Scielo and undergo blind peer review. The evaluations of each article will be shared with the organizers of the dossier and the editorial decisions will be taken in collaboration with the editors of the journal and the editorial committee. We highlight that the dossier should include approximately 30% foreign authors and authors from a minimum of three Brazilian states, preferentially beyond Rio de Janeiro and São Paulo. We estimate a period of one to two years between acceptance of a dossier proposal and its publication. It is the responsibility of the organizers to communicate the deadlines and the format to those selected to participate in the dossier. Translation Policy An article can be submitted in Portuguese, Spanish, or English. Contributions in Portuguese and Spanish will be published in the original language, and can be published bilingually. An English version of the articles submitted in Portuguese and Spanish is optional, but we encourage English translation to expand international circulation of Brazilian and Latin American studies. The translations and or versions will be at the expense of the authors, preferentially with professionals indicated by the journal. Translations conducted by professionals who are not indicated by the journal must undergo review by the translators/copyeditors registered with cadernos pagu. This editing will be paid for by the authors.
Criteria for evaluation and deadlines The articles are evaluated considering formal aspects such as clarity, objectivity, suitability to the rules of the journal; and aspects of content, including dialog with feminist and gender studies, innovative empiric, theoretical and or methodological contribution, consistency of the arguments, theoretical-methodological coherence and evidence to sustain the arguments.
Submissions Conducted in a continuous flow, at the time of submission, the metadata must be provided, including institutional affiliation or institution of the last degree received, ORCID, and the contribution of each author in the preparation of the article. The content of the work signed is the exclusive responsibility of the proponents, including the selection of keywords, as is the review of grammar and punctuation. The copyright of the works published is held by the Núcleo de Estudos de Gênero – Pagu/Unicamp, therefore, reproductions in other periodicals and or books can only be made with authorization from (cadpagu@unicamp.br). The articles undergo a triple evaluation filtration that considers:
This long process requires an average of 10 months between submission and final decision. If approved, the article enters the publishing phase. The data of submission of the final version marks the position of the article in the publication sequence. The situation of the article can be accompanied by the ScIELO submissions platform.

Editorial Process cadernos pagu EDITORIAL STAFF:
Editors Executive editor Pagu Secretary Pagu Librarian Interns BAS-SAE 1 ad 2 grantees (Intern Supervisor – Editor) Editorial Committee
1. First evaluation. Participants: editors, interns, and editorial committee When an article is submitted to the ScIELO platform, the editor and interns determine if the manuscript complies with the journal’s norms, and if it has potential for publication. If the article does not comply with the journal’s norms, the submission is rejected. The message that explains the reason for the rejection (based on an existing model) must be clear – indicating that the article was rejected because it does not comply with the journal norms – and mention that the authors should adjust the text to comply with the norms and resubmit it. If it is determined that the text does not have potential for publication, the manuscript is immediately rejected with a brief message signed by the editorial committee. If there is any doubt, the article is sent to members of the editorial committee, who come to serve as guest editors on the ScIELO platform, specifically for articles that were designated to them. When asked to participate in this first step, members of the editorial committee should evaluate the article’s potential for publication. If they believe that the manuscript sent to them does NOT have potential for publication, the members of the editorial committee contacted must issue a brief statement [one paragraph] rejecting the article. If they understand that the text DOES have potential for publication, the guest editors should suggest at least three ad hoc reviewers who have PhDs. The indication should include, whenever possible, an e-mail for contacting the reviewers named. When designated for Step 1 in the Editorial Process the members of the editorial committee should respond to the request within 10 (ten) days.
2. Step to verify plagiarism. Partiicpants: editors and interns The articles submitted to cadernos pagu that pass the first step of evaluation (described above) will be sent to the Turnitin antiplagiarism system, which is provided by the Sistema Único de Bibliotecas da Unicamp [administered by the State University at Campinas library]. If a score equal or higher than 26% of similarity with the database provided by the system is found, not considering text within quotation marks and publications by the author of the article being verified, the manuscripts will be rejected. If there is a need to reject the article, the editor will undertake the rejection process via the ScIELO system by sending a report to the author. If plagiarism is not found, the executive editor will send the manuscript to the ad hoc reviewers indicated in Step 1.
3. Step of accompaniment. Participants in the step: Executive editor, editors and editorial committee: After Steps I and II of the Editorial Process, the articles are sent by the editor to the executive editor who should determine if they correspond to an article of a dossier, resubmissions or new submissions (based on information contained in the comment field and metadata of the submissions). In case of articles for a dossier, the executive editor should notify the guest editors/organizers of the dossier. In the case of new submissions of articles previously considered and rejected with the option for resubmission, the editorial assistant should notify the editor, who will make an editorial decision in conjunction with the editorial committee, based on the evaluations previously issued under blind review.
4. Step of evaluation and accompaniment. Participants in the step: Executive editor and interns: In this step, the manuscripts will be sent by the executive editor and by the interns to the reviewers indicated by the editor, and by the editorial committee. The executive editor is responsible for: 4.1 Finding the e-mails, completing a registration form, and verifying the curriculum of the designated reviewers and communicating with them. Problems identified by the editorial assistant in relation to the reviewers indicated should be informed to the editors. 4.2 Accompaniment of the evaluation process by the reviewers. 4.2.1 The editorial assistant will accompany the period of response of the reviewers and issue reminders of delays. The editor should be warned after 2 (two) unsuccessful attempts to communicate with the reviewers indicated. 4.2.2 If the reviewers indicated do not agree to conduct the evaluation, the executive editor should request that the reviewers indicate other reviewers who have PhDs. If the executive editor does not have a response within one week, she should inform the editor, who will designate new reviewers, along with the editorial committee. 4.2.3 The editor will be informed when reviews of the article have been received.
5. Final evaluation step. Participants: editor and executive editor: After the article has received the reviews by the ad hoc reviewers, the editor reads the reviews and issues the Final Editorial Decision, which is placed in the system with a copy for the editorial assistant. It is the attribution of the executive editor to send the Editorial Decision to the authors.
6. Details of the final evaluation step. Participants: editors; executive editor and BAS 2 intern 6.1 In case of approval: if it is determined that the author should make changes to the article (whether substantive or not), the article should be returned to the author who will have a period of 30 days to submit the revised versions on the ScIELO platform, with the changes highlighted in yellow. The message to the author will highlight that the article should not be sent as a new submission, but that the text must be returned with the changes through the ScIELO system within the same submission process first created for the article. Monitoring of the deadline for return of the articles is the responsibility of the executive editor. The executive editor will report to the editor if a deadline for returning a text is not met, or when the revised version is received. 6.2 The revised article returned will be sent to the editor who will approve the final version of the manuscript or send it to a second round of evaluation. In this case, the articles will be sent to one of the ad hoc reviewers designated in the first round. Articles that were not returned within 30 days will be rejected with a previous warning to the authors made by the executive editor. 6.3 After approval of the article in the second round, the executive editor should ask the authors if they want to publish the text in English as well, clarifying that the costs of translation, to be done by professionals indicated by the journal, will be paid for by the authors. 6.4 The executive editor will send the abstract and resumen of articles accepted for publication for copyediting by the translators used by the journal. Payments for these services will be handled by the secretary for the Núcleo. 6.5 Articles that are rejected in this final step of the editorial procedures will be archived by the executive editor.
7. Layout Step. Participants: editorial assistant and 2-BAS grantee: The articles ACCEPTED for publication will be sent by the executive editor to Grantee 2 who will layout the texts and a new review of the manuscript will be conducted to determine if it complies with the journal’s norms. In this step, special attention will be given to the Resumo and Bibliographic References. After layout and verification of norms by grantee 2, the executive editor will conduct a second review, considering the layout and compliance with the journal’s norms (resumo, bibliographic references, quotes; ORCID, and other elements that go beyond text review).
8. Review of the texts – Participants: editorial assistant and editor: After the layout, the article must be sent by the executive editor to the editor who will conduct the final review of the layout and norms, and conduct a final editing of the text. The article will be returned to the authors with the suggestions for changes made by the editor, and for compliance with norms made by the executive editor. The author will make the adjustments required for publication of the text. After the author returns the article, the editorial assistant will send it to the editor who will determine if it is ready to be sent for publication.
9. Step of sending articles to the company that conducts XML markup. Participant: executive editor: The texts approved by the editor for XML markup will be sent to the Cabo Verde company by the executive editor, who will also be responsible for resolving any inconsistencies with the company.
