GEOFORUM
El presente documento presenta la revista International Geoforum con el propósito de orientar la elaboración
de artículos para ser remitidos a ella. En primer lugar presenta la revista, luego caracteriza su naturaleza, y
finalmente ofrece algunas propiedades de la misma desde el modelo de los seis rasgos (six traits): Ideas,
Organization, Voice, Sentence Fluency, Word Choice, Conventions. Asimismo, se incorporan cuatro anexos
que se consideran de utilidad: el detalle de los artículos publicados hasta la fecha (octubre 2009), la lista de
números temáticos editados, las características editoriales de la revista, y los nombres y puestos del editorial
board.
1. Presentación de la revista
Geoforum es una revista interdisciplinaria especializada en temas de Economía y Política, enfocados -como su
nombre lo indica- en su aspectos geográficos y ambientales, tanto a nivel local como a escala global. La revista
se publica bimestralmente, conteniendo en cada entrega entre doce y veinte artículos. Hasta la fecha se han
editado cuarenta volúmenes, incluyendo seis números cada uno. De acuerdo al sitio oficial:
“The broad focus of Geoforum is the organisation of economic, political, social and environmental
systems through space and over time. Areas of study range from the analysis of the global political
economy and environment, through national systems of regulation and governance, to urban and
regional development, local economic and urban planning and resources management.” 1.
La revista se puede revisar en línea a través del sitio de la editorial Elsevier, así como desde bases de datos como
ScienceDirect2. El detalle de los títulos de los artículos publicados en los últimos diez años se presenta en el
Anexo I del presente documento.
Geoforum es una revista interdisciplinaria, con un fuerte énfasis en la investigación empírica respecto a
fenómenos económicos, políticos, sociales, culturales y su contextualización histórica y geográfica. De acuerdo

3. Propiedades de la revista
De acuerdo con la planilla de análisis cualitativo ESE:O, Geoforum se caracteriza de la siguiente manera:
El modelo de los seis rasgos, por su parte, es un sistema de criterios que permite evaluar documentos escritos de
acuerdo con seis dimensiones: Ideas, Organization, Voice, Sentence Fluency, Word Choice, Conventions 4.
En lo siguiente, se ocupan los seis rasgos para caracterizar de manera más detallada los artículos que finalmente
se publican en la revista.
3.1. Ideas
Las ideas son “The heart of the message, the content of the piece, the main theme, with details that enrich and
develop that theme”.
Las ideas en Geoforum se concentran en la descripción cualitativa de fenómenos económicos, políticos, sociales
y culturales, y su relación con el entorno físico (geográfico, ecológico) y cultural. Predominan los estudios de
caso y los artículos críticos sobre la conceptualización y la explicación de los fenómenos descritos, desde un
punto de vista histórico, sociológico y antropológico. Los artículos emplean un tipo de argumentación
conceptual e interpretativa en conjunto con la descripción cuantitativa de las variables analizadas.
Las ideas se respaldan por mediante el uso de referencias en las secciones iniciales del texto, como en el
siguiente ejemplo:
“Neoliberalism is the most powerful ideological and political project in global governance to
arise in the wake of Keynesianism, a status conveyed by triumphalist phrases such as “the
Washington consensus” and the “end of history” (Laclau and Mouffe, 1985; Jessop, B., 1994.;
Harvey, 2000; Peck, 2001). Yet the neoliberal project is not hegemonic: it has been roundly
criticized and attacked, and it has faltered in a number of respects. In fact, the most nakedly
extreme forms of neoliberal state rollbacks and market triumphalism may well be past, beaten
back in places by virulent resistance (a surprise to those who believed history was at an end);
undermined by the spectacular failures of neoliberal reforms judged even by the standards of
neoliberal champions (as in Argentina, for example); and replaced by “kinder, gentler,” Third
Way variants (Peck and Tickell, 2002).” (McCarthy & Prudham (2004) Neoliberal nature and
the nature of neoliberalism, Geoforum, Volume 35, Issue 3).

Normalmente un artículo de diez páginas posee una página de referencias.
(Steinberg et. Al., (2006). Mapping massacres: GIS and state terror in Guatemala. Geoforum 37 (2006) p. 65)
(Lyon, Aranda & Mutersbaugh (2009). Gender equity in fairtrade–organic coffee producer organizations:
Cases from Mesoamerica. Geoforum. In Press, p.6)
3.2. Organization
La organización es “The internal structure, the thread of central meaning, the logical and sometimes intriguing
pattern of the ideas”.
En consonancia con la metodología utilizada comúnmente en ciencias sociales, la organización de los artículos
sigue muy frecuentemente el esquema:
Introducción
Desarrollo de las Unidades Temáticas
Conclusión
La sección de introducción por lo general delimita el tema que se abordará, individuando los fenómenos
descritos e interpretados y estableciendo el enfoque metodológico empleado. Por ejemplo:
“The article explores the conditions that led to the establishment of a truth commission in
Guatemala, and how, once in operation, the truth commission produced results radically di?erent
than those anticipated by its creators. Although established as means to bury the past, the
Guatemalan truth commission instead stimulated further physical exhumations, legal cases and
social explorations into the violence. Even as the battle held between the insurgents and the army
was pacifed, the war between impunity and accountability intensifed. This article explores the
Guatemalan truth commission as a site of struggle in which these battles concerning impunity
versus accountability occurred. Research for this article was conducted during extended periods
between 1989 and 1999. The research is grounded in the premise that the manner in which ‘‘the
truth’’ is constructed must be seen within the context of the specific political and social conditions
shaping the establishment and function of such commissions. The methodology combined
structured interviews, participatory observation, and institutional ethnography in order to determine
how the reconstruction of the truth dialectically interacts with the transformation of power relations
in the aftermath of extreme violence.” (Ross 2006. The creation and conduct of the Guatemalan
Commission for Historical Clarification Geoforum 37 69–81).
Este esquema se desarrolla en cinco a veinte páginas (a doble columna), que incluyen, además, el título, el
abstract (de aproximadamente quince líneas con márgenes más angostos), con un número de keywords que
oscila entre los tres y los doce, y referencias (las que predominantemente cubren entradas de los últimos diez
años).
3.3. Voice
La voz es “The unique perspective of the writer evident in the piece through the use of compelling ideas,
engaging language, and revealing details”.
La voz de los artículos de la revista varía, siendo la voz neutra la predominante. Los textos están escritos en
presente y en usualmente en tercera persona. Cuando se hacen referencias personales, se suelen usar pronombres
personales.
Los títulos suelen ser descripciones resumidas del contenido de la investigación, como por ejemplo:
Neoliberalism and water reforms in western India: Commercialization, self-sufficiency, and regulatory
bodies.
En algunos casos se incorporan referencias a la cultura popular o metáforas, como en:
Something in the Air: Civic science and contentious environmental politics in post-apartheid South
Africa.
En estos casos, además se ilustra una práctica común en el titulaje de los artículos, el uso de una frase
englobadora, seguida por el detalle de los aspectos analizados.
La selección de palabras es “The use of rich, colorful, precise language that moves and enlightens the reader”.
Las palabras que se ocupan son técnicas de la estadística y técnicas de los estudios sobre economía, sociología y
política. Cuando se usan palabras que pertenecen a la jerga disciplinar específica, se realiza la maniobra de citar
literatura relevante respecto al concepto empleado, como en el citado Lyon, Aranda & Mutersbaugh (2009):
“We take two approaches to resolving these questions. First, we make use of ’value-chain’ theory,
extending value chains – a version of commodity-chain theory expressly concerned with who
produces value and how it is produced at particular nodes along a value-chain (see Ponte and
Gibbon, 2005; Kaplinsky, 2004; Bernstein and Campling, 2006) – into villages and households.
Second, we examine the rules and norms that govern the fairtrade–organic coffee commodity chain
to gain an understanding of how the ‘farm operator’ status affects women’s gender roles. (Since the
bulk of Mesoamerican fair trade coffee is double-certified fairtrade and organic, we consider the
two in tandem as ‘fairtrade–organic’ when we assess the relation between ‘ethical’ market
participation and gender equity.) In this manner we hope to gain a fuller understanding of the
interplay between fairtrade–organic networks, women’s work, and value. Within this fairtrade–
organic value-chain, fair-trade and organic certifications differ in character and yet combine to
create a unique effect.”
La fluidez oracional es “The rhythm and flow of the language, the sound of word patterns, the way in which the
writing plays to the ear, not just to the eye”.
Las oraciones que se suelen ocupar son extensas, con abundantes porciones entre paréntesis (citas) y
estructuradas lógicamente en bloques sintéticos de información. Dependiendo del tipo de análisis y metodología,
coexisten en esta revista artículos en los cuales se enfatiza en los datos cuantitativos, y articulos en los que la
argumentación es puramente conceptual e interpretativa; contraste observable en los siguientes ejemplos:
“The terror aimed at rural Guatemalans, especially Maya Indians, was too great to go
uninvestigated and unpunished: over 400 villages destroyed by the military in a scorched earth
strategy; 200,000 murdered and disappeared; 150,000 Guatemalans sought refuge outside their
country; 1.5 million internally displaced Guatemalans escaping violence; countless orphans and
widows; indelible scars of horror deeply ingrained in the minds of victims and perpetrators alike
(Manz, 1988; Smith, 1988; Falla, 1992; Wilson, 1998; REMHI, 1998; Ball et al., 1999; Jonas,
2000)
(Steinberg et. Al. 2006)
“Demonstrating the enduring salience of Polanyi’s dual movement thesis, if neoliberalism has
attacked the Keynesian environmental state, it is also true that contemporary environmental
concerns and their politics have been, in many respects, the most passionately articulated and
effective political sources of response and resistance to neoliberal projects, contending with
neoliberalism as a basis of post-Fordist social regulation. In something of a reprise of
environmentally motivated responses to classical liberalism, new environmental social
movements have organized around a diverse range of concerns, including health, endangered
species and spaces, and threatened amenity values, all questioning and contesting neoliberal
attempts to sever social controls and regulations governing environmental transformations. It is a
highly telling testament to the power of environmentalism that the “Reagan revolution,” the
“Contract with America,” and the WTO meeting in Seattle in 1999––three defining moments for
neoliberalism in the U.S., at least––all faltered badly precisely on questions surrounding
environmental regulations and standards. There is some evidence, then, for the view that
environmental concerns are at least seen to cross divisions of class, sub-national geography, and
so on: American voters who seem comfortable with unraveling the Keynesian net in many areas,
apparently convinced that it does not benefit them, have made clear their remaining attachment to
certain environmental protections. In this respect, many citizens––at least in the richer capitalist
nations––apparently take for granted that environmental risks affect them as individuals, a
perception central to Beck’s notion of the “risk society” (Beck and Ritter, 1992; Beck, 1999). We
believe that these widely held beliefs about scarcity and risk, propagated by environmental groups
in significant measure, have acted as significant checks on neoliberal projects, sustaining a much
needed and highly compelling alternative subjectivity to homo-economicus, one that challenges
unrestrained materialism, rampant instrumentalism and crass utilitarianism.
(McCarthy & Prudham 2004)
3.6. Conventions
Las convenciones son “The mechanical correctness of the piece; spelling, grammar and usage, paragraphing, use
of capitals, and punctuation”.
La revista posee un detallado conjunto de normas concernientes al formato del cuerpo, abstract, referencias,
bibliografía, gráficos y tablas incluidas en los artículos. Las convenciones de la revista se detallan en el Anexo I,
referente a las características editoriales de la revista, a continuación.
ANEXO I: Características editoriales de la revista
Geoforum is an international, inter-disciplinary journal, global in outlook, and integrative in approach. The broad focus of
Geoforum is the organisation of economic, political, social and environmental systems through space and over time. Areas
of study range from the analysis of the global political economy and environment, through national systems of regulation
and governance, to urban and regional development, local economic and urban planning and resources management. The
journal also includes a Critical Review section which features critical assessments of research in all the above areas.
Types of paper
Papers should be a maximum of 9,000 words (including footnotes, but excluding bibliography, abstract, tables and figure
captions) However, all papers should be written as concisely as possible. Papers which, in the opinion of the editors, can be
shortened without sacrifice of clarity or of scientific content will be referred back to the author for modification. Papers for
the 'Critical Review' section should be a maximum of 3,000 words (including footnotes, but excluding bibliography,
abstract, tables and figure captions). Authors must state the word length of their paper in the covering letter.
The practice of peer review is to ensure that good academic research is published. It is an objective process at the heart of
good scholarly publishing and is carried out on all reputable social science journals. Our referees therefore play a vital role
in maintaining the high standards of Geoforum and all manuscripts are peer reviewed following the procedure outlined
below.
The Editors first evaluate all manuscripts. It is rare occurrence, but it is possible that an exceptional manuscript will be
accepted at this stage. Manuscripts can also be rejected at this stage; these will be papers that are insufficiently original,
have serious flaws, have poor grammar or English language, or are outside the aims and scope of the journal. Authors of
manuscripts rejected at this stage will normally be informed within three weeks of receipt. Manuscripts that meet the
minimum criteria are entered into the review process, following confirmation by the author that the paper reports original
research, has not been submitted for consideration to any other journal and, if a co-authored paper, that they have
permission from their co-authors to submit the manuscript to the journal.
This journal employs a system of double blind reviewing, where both the referee and author remain anonymous throughout
the process. It is the responsibility of every author to ensure that there are no potentially identifying references in any part of
a paper. Where a manuscript is submitted as part of a theme issue, one of the reviews will be provided either by a Guest
Editor or an Editor, who will be aware of the identity of the author. Therefore, for these reports only, a system of single
blind reviewing applies.
Referees are matched to the paper according to their expertise. Our database is constantly being updated. Authors may
suggest possible referees for their manuscripts, but Editors may acted upon this advice. Manuscripts are normally reviewed
by three referees; all manuscripts are reviewed by at least two referees, while some manuscripts may be reviewed by more
than three referees.
Referee reports
Referees are asked to evaluate the following:
Does the paper make a contribution to knowledge? This might be achieved by advancing or criticising a
theoretical perspective, or by providing new empirical material, for example.
Is there any existing work in this area which the author has failed to acknowledge?
Is the argument in the paper easy to follow?
Do some parts of the argument need to be better explained in places?
Is the paper too long or too short for publication in an academic journal?
Do any sections of the paper need to be condensed or expanded?
Is the paper suitable for the audience of Geoforum, the majority of which are human geographers?
Is original?
Is theoretically and methodologically sound Contains a consideration of research ethics, where this is
appropriate?
Has findings which are clearly presented and support the conclusions?
Demonstrates and awareness of and correctly references previous relevant work?
Referees are not expected to correct or copyedit manuscripts. Language correction is not part of the peer review process.
Referees are expected to inform the editors if they consider that reviewing the manuscript could lead to a conflict of interest.
Manuscripts are normally reviewed within four months. While every effort is made to expedite the review process, delays
beyond four months are possible on occasion depending on the availability of appropriate experts to review manuscripts.
Should referees' reports contradict one another or a report is unnecessarily delayed further expert opinion will be sought.
Revised and resubmitted manuscripts that need further comments from the referees are normally returned them within three
weeks of resubmission. Editors may request more than one revision of a manuscript from an author.
Final report
A final decision to accept or reject the manuscript will be sent to the author along with any recommendations made by the
editor and referees, and will normally include the reports on referees' reports on the manuscript.
Referees advise the editors, who are responsible for the final decision to accept or reject the article.
It is important that the file be saved in the native format of the wordprocessor used. The text should be in single-column
format and double-spaced. Please insert page numbers. Keep the layout of the text as simple as possible. In particular, do
not use the wordprocessor's options to justify text or to hyphenate words. However, do use bold face, italics, subscripts,
superscripts etc. Do not embed "graphically designed" equations or tables, but prepare these using the wordprocessor's
facility. When preparing tables, if you are using a table grid, use only one grid for each individual table and not a grid for
each row. If no grid is used, use tabs, not spaces, to align columns. The electronic text should be prepared in a way very
similar to that of conventional manuscripts (see also the Guide to Publishing with Elsevier: External link
http://www.elsevier.com/guidepublication). Do not import the figures into the text file but, instead, indicate their
approximate locations directly in the electronic text and on the manuscript e.g. [TABLE 1 ABOUT HERE]. See also the
section on Electronic illustrations. To avoid unnecessary errors you are strongly advised to use the "spell-check" and
"grammar-check" functions of your wordprocessor.
Article structure
There is no prescribed structure for Geoforum articles, but authors should bear in mind the need to include appropriate
discussion of existing relevant literature, the methodology adopted in the research, the research results and interpretations.
Conclusions should be more than a reiteration of the specific research findings, but rather a discussion of the main
contributions of the research to wider debates.
Divide your article into clearly defined and numbered sections. Subsections should be numbered 1.1 (then 1.1.1, 1.1.2, ...),
1.2, etc. (the abstract is not included in section numbering). Use this numbering also for internal cross-referencing: do not
just refer to "the text". Any subsection may be given a brief heading. Each heading should appear on its own separate line.
Anonymity
Geoforum operates a double-blind refereeing process. Please ensure that you remove anything which could identify you in
the text. This includes references to previous publications which you can change to (Author, date) for review purposes. The
correct reference can be included if the paper is accepted. Do not include acknowledgements in the main text. They should
be submitted in a separate file which is not sent to the reviewers. Author names should also not appear in filenames as these
are sometimes visible to referees.
Title. Concise and informative. Titles are often used in information-retrieval systems. Avoid abbreviations and
formulae where possible.
Author names and affiliations. Where the family name may be ambiguous (e.g., a double name), please indicate
this clearly. Present the authors' affiliation addresses (where the actual work was done) below the names. Indicate
all affiliations with a lower-case superscript letter immediately after the author's name and in front of the
appropriate address. Provide the full postal address of each affiliation, including the country name, and, if
available, the e-mail address of each author.
Corresponding author. Clearly indicate who will handle correspondence at all stages of refereeing and publication,
also post-publication. Ensure that telephone and fax numbers (with country and area code) are provided in addition
to the e-mail address and the complete postal address.
Present/permanent address. If an author has moved since the work described in the article was done, or was visiting
at the time, a "Present address" (or "Permanent address") may be indicated as a footnote to that author's name. The
address at which the author actually did the work must be retained as the main, affiliation address. Superscript
Arabic numerals are used for such footnotes.
Abstract
A concise and factual abstract is required (250 words maximum). The abstract should state briefly the purpose of the
research, the principal results and major conclusions. An abstract is often presented separately from the article, so it must be
able to stand alone. For this reason, References should be avoided, but if essential, then cite the author(s) and year(s). Also,
non-standard or uncommon abbreviations should be avoided, but if essential they must be defined at their first mention in
the abstract itself.
Keywords
Immediately after the abstract, provide a maximum of 6 keywords, using American spelling and avoiding general and plural
terms and multiple concepts (avoid, for example, "and", "of"). Be sparing with abbreviations: only abbreviations firmly
established in the field may be eligible. These keywords will be used for indexing purposes.
Acknowledgements
Acknowledgements should be submitted in a separate file which will not be sent to reviewers. List here those individuals
who provided help during the research (e.g., providing language help, writing assistance or proof reading the article, etc.).
Math formulae
Present simple formulae in the line of normal text where possible and use the solidus (/) instead of a horizontal line for
small fractional terms, e.g., X/Y. In principle, variables are to be presented in italics. Powers of e are often more
conveniently denoted by exp. Number consecutively any equations that have to be displayed separately from the text (if
referred to explicitly in the text).
Footnotes
Footnotes should be used sparingly. Number them consecutively throughout the article, using superscript Arabic numbers.
Many wordprocessors build footnotes into the text, and this feature may be used. Should this not be the case, indicate the
position of footnotes in the text and present the footnotes themselves separately at the end of the article. Do not include
footnotes in the Reference list.
Table footnotes
Indicate each footnote in a table with a superscript lowercase letter.
Artwork
Electronic artwork
General points
• Make sure you use uniform lettering and sizing of your original artwork.
• Save text in illustrations as "graphics" or enclose the font.
• Only use the following fonts in your illustrations: Arial, Courier, Times, Symbol.
• Number the illustrations according to their sequence in the text.
• Use a logical naming convention for your artwork files.
• Provide captions to illustrations separately.
• Produce images near to the desired size of the printed version.
• Submit each figure as a separate file.
Formats
Regardless of the application used, when your electronic artwork is finalised, please "save as" or convert the images to one
of the following formats (note the resolution requirements for line drawings, halftones, and line/halftone combinations given
below):
EPS: Vector drawings. Embed the font or save the text as "graphics".
TIFF: color or grayscale photographs (halftones): always use a minimum of 300 dpi.
TIFF: Bitmapped line drawings: use a minimum of 1000 dpi.
TIFF: Combinations bitmapped line/half-tone (color or grayscale): a minimum of 500 dpi is required.
DOC, XLS or PPT: If your electronic artwork is created in any of these Microsoft Office applications please supply "as is".
Please do not:
• Supply embedded graphics in your wordprocessor (spreadsheet, presentation) document;
• Supply files that are optimised for screen use (like GIF, BMP, PICT, WPG); the resolution is too low;
• Supply files that are too low in resolution;
• Submit graphics that are disproportionately large for the content.
Color artwork
Please make sure that artwork files are in an acceptable format (TIFF, EPS or MS Office files) and with the correct
resolution. If, together with your accepted article, you submit usable color figures then Elsevier will ensure, at no additional
charge, that these figures will appear in color on the Web (e.g., ScienceDirect and other sites) regardless of whether or not
these illustrations are reproduced in color in the printed version. For color reproduction in print, you will receive
information regarding the costs from Elsevier after receipt of your accepted article. Please indicate your preference for color
in print or on the Web only. For further information on the preparation of electronic artwork, please see External link
http://www.elsevier.com/artworkinstructions.
Please note: Because of technical complications which can arise by converting color figures to "gray scale" (for the printed
version should you not opt for color in print) please submit in addition usable black and white versions of all the color
illustrations.
Figure captions
Ensure that each illustration has a caption. Supply captions separately at the end of the manuscript, not attached to the
figure. A caption should comprise a brief title (not on the figure itself) and a description of the illustration. Keep text in the
illustrations themselves to a minimum but explain all symbols and abbreviations used. Figures published elsewhere cannot
be reproduced without permission from the copyright holder.
Tables
Number tables consecutively in accordance with their appearance in the text. Place footnotes to tables below the table body
and indicate them with superscript lowercase letters. Avoid vertical rules. Be sparing in the use of tables and ensure that the
data presented in tables do not duplicate results described elsewhere in the article. Tables which have been published
elsewhere cannot be reproduced without permission from the copyright holder.
References
Citation in text
Please ensure that every reference cited in the text is also present in the reference list (and vice versa). Any references cited
in the abstract must be given in full. Unpublished results and personal communications are not recommended in the
reference list, but may be mentioned in the text. If these references are included in the reference list they should follow the
standard reference style of the journal and should include a substitution of the publication date with either "Unpublished
results" or "Personal communication" Citation of a reference as "in press" implies that the item has been accepted for
publication.
Web references
As a minimum, the full URL should be given. Any further information, if known (DOI, author names, dates, reference to a
source publication, etc.), should also be given. Web references can be listed separately (e.g., after the reference list) under a
different heading if desired, or can be included in the reference list.
All publications cited in the text should be presented in a bibliography and vice versa. In the text refer to the author's name
(without initials) and year of publication (e.g. "Since Peterson (1993) has shown that..." or "This is in the agreement with
results obtained later (Kramer, 1994)"). For three or more authors use the first author followed by "et al.", in the text. The
list of references should be arranged alphabetically by authors' names. The manuscript should be carefully checked to
ensure that the spelling of authors' names and dates are exactly the same in the text as in the reference list. References
should be given in the following form:
