History of the Journal
Chilean Journal of Law and Political Science embarked upon its activities in 2010. Its distinguishing feature is marked by its two permanent sections (Law and Political Science). Chilean Journal of Law and Political Science is the successor to two journals previously published by the Law School of Universidad Católica de Temuco: Revista de Derecho de la UC Temuco [Law Review of UC Temuco] and Revista del CREA – Centro de Resolución Alternativa de Conflictos [Journal of CREA– Centre for Alternative Dispute Solving]. The object was to create a space for specialist knowledge in the fields of the Legal Sciences and Political Science through the publication of research works and the results of investigations carried out in Chile and worldwide. Since 2016, the Editorial Team has included political scientists of the Department of Sociology, Political Science and Public Administration of the University, in order to consolidate the development of the two fields of study named in our editorial policy. In 2017, the Journal altered its thematic focus to incorporate a management culture aimed at satisfying internationally recognised standards of quality and frequency.
