6. General Author Information / CRediT Taxonomy

The authors’ names must not appear in the manuscript itself, but only in the submission metadata and in the Article Cover Letter. The submission metadata must include each author’s email, ORCID, institution, and biography. For the institution, up to three hierarchical levels of affiliation may be included, for example: “University, Faculty, and Department/Program.”

The maximum number of authors is limited to three, with exceptions considered only upon appropriate justification for inclusion. Inclusion of authors whose contributions do not meet the established criteria will not be accepted as a reason for authorship. These contributors, however, may be acknowledged in the Acknowledgments section, which is intended to recognize institutions or individuals who supported the research or contributed to the study but did not qualify as authors. At least one of the authors must hold a doctoral degree as the minimum academic qualification.

The participation and contribution of each individual in the development of the work will be carefully evaluated to ensure that only those who meet the authorship criteria are listed as authors. The purpose of this policy is to ensure transparency and proper attribution of credit to those involved in the study, while maintaining the integrity and validity of the academic work.

The detailed description of each author’s specific contributions must be provided in the Article Cover Letter.

CRediT (Contributor Roles Taxonomy) is a comprehensive classification framework comprising 14 distinct roles, each representing typical functions performed by collaborators in the creation of academic and scientific works. These roles describe the specific and individual contributions of each author to the research, allowing a detailed representation of their contributions.

The primary purpose of this taxonomy is to promote transparency regarding individual contributions in scientific works, thereby improving systems for attribution, recognition, and accountability. It is important to note that a single contributor may fulfill more than one role in the creation of a work, and CRediT provides a framework to capture this multiplicity of contributions clearly and systematically.

Conceptualization: Idea, formulation, or development of overarching research goals and aims.

Data Curation: Management of activities to annotate (produce metadata), clean, and maintain research data (including software code when necessary for data interpretation) for initial use or later reuse.

7. Considerations Regarding the Use of Chatbots in Submitted Manuscripts

In order to ensure the integrity and reliability of the conclusions and results presented in scientific manuscripts that employ chatbots, as well as to maintain public trust in the reported findings, Revista Direitos Humanos e Democracia adopts specific guidelines regarding the ethical aspects associated with the use of these technologies in scientific manuscripts.

Transparency: Authors must be fully transparent about the use of chatbots in the manuscript preparation process, providing detailed information (name, version, model, and source) on how the technology was used and the contribution of the chatbots to the creation of the text.

Responsibility: Authors must take full responsibility for the work performed by chatbots in their manuscripts, ensuring the accuracy of what is presented and the absence of plagiarism. Additionally, human authors must ensure that no plagiarism occurs in their articles, including text generated by chatbots.

Attribution: Authors must ensure proper attribution of all sources, including material produced by chatbots. Furthermore, they should seek and cite sources that support the statements generated by the chatbots.

Limitations: Authors must discuss the limitations and potential biases of using chatbots in the production of scientific texts, such as their inability to fully understand nuances or ambiguities in language.

Declaration Requirement: Revista Direitos Humanos e Democracia requires that authors disclose the use of generative artificial intelligence (AI) and AI-assisted technologies in the writing process by including a declaration at the time of manuscript submission (item 2 – manuscript transfer).

The declaration should include the following information:

"Declaration of the Use of Generative AI and AI-Assisted Technologies in the Writing Process."
"During the preparation of this article, the author(s) used [NAME OF TOOL/SERVICE] for the purpose of [PURPOSE]. After using this tool/service, the author(s) reviewed and edited the content as needed and assumes full responsibility for the content of the publication."

It should be noted that this declaration does not apply to the use of basic text revision tools, such as spell checkers, grammar checkers, bibliographic references, and similar tools. If generative AI or AI-assisted technologies were not used in the writing process, the inclusion of this declaration is not mandatory.

 

8. Editorial Process

The Revista Direitos Humanos e Democracia adopts standardized editorial procedures and quality assurance practices at all stages, beginning with the receipt of the manuscript.

 

8. 1. Stages of the Editorial Process

Pre-analysis: In the first stage, the article is received by the technical team, which checks for compliance with the journal’s guidelines. The manuscript is then reviewed by members of the Editorial Committee, who assess its alignment with the general criteria and editorial policy of the journal. Articles will be rejected at this stage if they: a) are characterized as literature reviews or excerpts from dissertations, theses, projects, or research reports without proper adaptation; b) are excessively descriptive and lack analytical depth; c) do not make a significant contribution to the field of knowledge; or d) fail to comply with the journal’s publication guidelines. Articles rejected at this stage will be archived, and those approved will proceed to the next phase.

Peer Review: Articles are evaluated by at least two specialists in the relevant field, selected from the journal’s pool of ad hoc reviewers who are members of the Scientific Committee/Review Board and affiliated with different Brazilian and international institutions. The evaluation process is double-blind, meaning that both the reviewers’ and authors’ identities remain anonymous. Reviewer reports may, at the editor’s discretion, be published alongside the article. Reviewers assess the article based on the following criteria: clarity of writing and readability; conformity with academic standards; relevance and adequacy of the theoretical and conceptual framework; clarity and alignment of the study object with the journal’s focus and scope; clearly stated objectives consistent across the abstract, introduction, and conclusion; methodological rigor and suitability to the study’s purpose; quality of results presentation and discussion, supported by the theoretical framework; concise and consistent conclusions; and originality and contribution to the field. After completing the descriptive review and submitting it to the journal’s platform, the reviewer must select one of the following recommendations: Accept, Mandatory Revisions, or Reject.

Reviewer Reports: After the peer review process, the editor sends the reviewers’ reports to the corresponding author, indicating aspects that require correction, improvement, or clarification. The author must make the necessary changes within the established deadline.

Author Revision: Upon resubmission, the author must clearly indicate all modifications made to the text and attach a detailed response letter explaining how each suggestion was addressed or, when necessary, justifying any disagreements. This stage is essential to ensure the scientific rigor and editorial quality of the work prior to the final decision.

Editorial Decision: Based on the reviewers’ reports and the revised version, the Editors of the journal will communicate the editorial decision regarding acceptance or rejection of the manuscript. If additional adjustments in content or structure are required, these will be indicated to the authors, who must make the necessary changes. The Editors may also suggest minor stylistic or formatting adjustments to align the text with the journal’s editorial standards and visual identity.

Publication of the Pre-proof Version: After acceptance, the journal will publish the accepted version without editorial modifications, marked with a watermark indicating that it is an unedited version, along with the following notice: “This is a preliminary and unedited version of a manuscript that has been accepted for publication in the Revista Direitos Humanos e Democracia. As a service to our readers, we are making this initial version available as accepted. The manuscript will still undergo copyediting, formatting, and author approval before final publication.” At this stage, the article will already be assigned a DOI. The editor will later contact the authors regarding publication of the final versions.

Portuguese Language Review: All approved articles undergo a linguistic and reference review. Minor adjustments that do not affect content comprehension may be made by the reviewers.

Layout: The article will then be typeset according to the journal’s final publication format, following its graphic and visual standards.

Proof: The formatted version will be sent to the author for final verification. Only minor linguistic adjustments or small corrections that do not alter the content or structure of the article will be permitted. Any corrections must be communicated within the deadline established by the Editorial Team.

Final Version: After approval of the final proof, the pre-proof version will be replaced by the definitive version on the journal’s website.

 

8. 2. Quality Control of the Editorial Process

Editorial Quality: The publisher and the Editorial Committee are responsible for ensuring the quality of both the published content and the entire editorial process. Both must strictly adhere to the principles of editorial ethics, following all stages of the editorial workflow and standardizing evaluation criteria. The journal publicly discloses the names of its editors along with their institutional affiliations and ORCID iDs.

Quality of Ad Hoc Reviewers: The selection of ad hoc reviewers is rigorous, aiming to guarantee the quality and impartiality of the evaluations. Reviewers are chosen based on their active engagement and productivity in the manuscript’s thematic area, with recent and recognized experience in the field. Previous review performance is also considered, prioritizing those who have demonstrated commitment to deadlines and quality in their assessments. The journal ensures that reviewers have no conflicts of interest and no recent co-authorship or collaboration with the authors of the manuscript under review. The list of ad hoc reviewers who have performed reviews for the journal is published annually.

Quality of Editorial Decisions: Editorial decisions prioritize the scientific validity of the article and its relevance to the academic community. Editors follow the guidelines of the journal’s editorial board and comply with legal requirements related to defamation, copyright infringement, and plagiarism. Decisions are based on reports from ad hoc reviewers, considering the scientific merit and quality of the manuscript. The evaluation process is conducted impartially, without discrimination based on race, gender, sexual orientation, religious belief, ethnic origin, nationality, or political stance of the authors. The journal employs a double-blind review system, in which both reviewers and authors remain anonymous, aiming to prevent any bias during the evaluation process.

Post-publication Quality: The journal follows an open access model, meaning all articles are made immediately and freely available online upon publication. Anyone can access, read, and examine the full content of the articles without restrictions, promoting transparency and scientific reproducibility.

The journal welcomes comments, questions, and suggestions regarding published articles. Readers may submit a letter to the Editor with their observations.

In cases where potential scientific errors or ethical issues are identified in a published article, the editorial team should be contacted. Upon notification, the necessary procedures will be initiated to investigate the matter. If errors are confirmed, appropriate measures will be taken, such as issuing a correction or formal retraction, in accordance with international ethical guidelines.
