Editorial Team

The editorial team is three-fold:

  • Coordinating Board, chaired by a General Coordinator;
  • Scientific Council;
  • Executive Committee.

Both in matters scientific, editorial, and technical, the General Coordinator is the head of the RDL, working hand in hand with all its bodies.

The Coordinating Board ensures, in conjunction with the General Coordinator, the normal functioning of the RDL and all events related to it; sets the themes for each issue, after consulting the Scientific Council; previously assesses the submitted manuscripts, gauging their relation to the scope of the RDL; issues a decision based on the opinions of peer reviewers when they are not entirely favorable, and proposes changes; and makes proposals about the normal functioning of the RDL.

The Scientific Council is consulted whenever the Coordinating Board deems it necessary on any scientific matter related to the RDL. It provides opinions on the proposal to integrate reviewers and makes proposals on themes that should be addressed in the RDL.
