Revista Científica Arbitrada de la Fundación MenteClara

The Applied Hermeneutics department of the Universidad Nacional de la Patagonia Austral (Argentina), Fundación MenteClara Internacional’s Peer-Reviewed Journal (RCAFMC) and the history department of Savitribai Phule Pune University (India) call for papers addressing the following topics:

Egalitarian philosophies of caste, class, gender, and life choices

Looking for relationships between humanist philosophies, existential phenomenology, and their influence on the work and thinking of those who fostered the evolution of shudras and dalits from ignorance and slavery in India, just as Dr. Bhimrao Ambedkar, Savitribai Phule, Sathyavani Muthu, and others have done in other continents.

This call aims at discussing and integrating concepts as well as creating new academic tools to emancipate individuals and bring them to the same condition of being by gathering, in a common forum, different disciplines that contribute to solve and make inequalities of caste, class, gender, and life choices visible.

The monographic issue will be published in the RCAFMC on April 30, 2020 with an introduction and conclusions by Aldo Enrici and Oscar R. Gómez. Submitted articles preprints will be published immediately upon acceptance to be evaluated together with their corresponding DOI to ease free debate between participating authors and external collaborators. Submission deadline is March 30, 2020.

Submitted articles must strictly follow the editorial guidelines posted in https://fundacionmenteclara.org.ar/revista/index.php/RCA/about/submissions#authorGuidelines

Articles, either in Spanish or in English, will be first screened by the Hermeneutic’s, RCAFMC’s editorial committees and history department of Savitribai Phule Pune University by considering research novelty, their contribution to the current state of knowledge, the author’s expertise in their field of study, clarity, and accuracy as well as the way the paper addresses the monographic issue guidelines.

Should the paper fail to meet all requirements for this monographic issue but it is original and it does meet the submission guidelines, it will be returned to the author along with an invitation to publish in the ordinary issues of Hermeneutic or RCAFMC.

If the paper does meet the criteria to be included in this monographic issue, it will be submitted to the double-blind peer-reviewed process. One of the reviewers will be selected out of the UNAP’s scientific committee and another one out of the Fundación MenteClara’s one. The peer-reviewed process will follow the guidelines posted in https://fundacionmenteclara.org.ar/revista/index.php/RCA/about/editorialPolicies#peerReviewProcess

UNAP and FMC will fully fund the editorial processing fees, as stated in the Guidelines for Authors section for the rest of articles, thus the researcher will not have to pay anything whatsoever.

For an improved submission of articles, we reccommend reading the following published articles in this journal, which are thematically concurrent with this call:
