About the Journal

Aims & Scope

Farol – Journal of Organization Studies and Society, a quarterly scientific publication of the Center for Organizational Studies and Society of the Faculty of Economic Sciences at the Federal University of Minas Gerais (NEOS/FACE/UFMG), seeks to foster, disseminate, and contribute to organizational studies from a non-functionalist perspective. This journal is therefore interdisciplinary in nature, and open for discussion and theme propositions, critical and innovative approaches, as well as unorthodox research objects in organizational studies. We believe that with a pluralist outlook on ontological, epistemological, theoretical and methodological points of view not guided by managerialism, propositions, discussions, critiques, and theorizations can be made in an attempt to understand the complex dynamics of society and its interfaces with organizations.

Peer Review Process

Farol - Journal of Organization Studies and Society welcomes contributions in a continuous flow. The submitted contribution which must be unpublished, will go through a double-blind peer review by a minimum of two ad hoc reviewers, with full anonymity and confidentiality. Our reviewers are not part of the Farol Editorial Team or UFMG. Manuscripts may be (a) accepted for publication, (b) accepted with modifications (publication is granted provided that the suggested changes are made), or (c) rejected. The authors are informed about the review decision upon receipt of the reviewers’ comments alongside the editor’s opinion.

The authors are given a deadline to make the modifications suggested by the reviewers. If the authors agree to modify their manuscript, the second draft must be accompanied by a tracked-changes report, in which the authors can add detailed comments in response to each suggestion. The report model is provided by the editorial team. Upon receipt of the second draft and the tracked-changes report, the editorial team forwards these documents to the ad hoc reviewers, who then assess whether the manuscript’s second draft, with changes made, meets the minimum criteria for publication. Otherwise, the work is returned to the authors and the review process is resumed until the manuscript is definitively accepted or rejected by the ad hoc reviewers and the editorial team.
