Revista Brasileira de Estudos Politicos

Aims & Scope

Since its first issue in December 1956, the Brazilian Journal of Political Studies (RBEP) has revealed its vocation as the arena of scientific discussion that privileges ideas, doctrines, problems and institutes that are critically approached.

The editorial line of the RBEP is of intense interdisciplinarity, opening the juridical knowledge for the humanistic, both in the classical dimension and in the social dimension, becoming space of publication and propagation of legal ideas, that dialogue with political, philosophical and social questions.

The RBEP intends to provide space for reflections on power and the State, whether in its dynamic aspect - when the ideas of Political Thought stand out - or in its institutional aspect, when it becomes an object of Law.

For this reason, articles of a purely legal-dogmatic or descriptive nature are not accepted by the RBEP, which seeks to offer a qualified locus for discussing topics that require differentiated approaches and innovative methodologies, capable of coping with the challenges that contemporaneity imposes on political coexistence.

Thus, articles that allow the interaction in knowledge and above all that dialogue with other articles already published during the proficient history of the Journal are welcome.

The resumption of previous articles allows us to revisit and improve ideas by building a path of discussion.
