Editorial Mar Caribe (EMC) is a private, interdisciplinary, and holistic scholarly organization that publishes and manages works on a continuous basis. Its primary objective is to disseminate original and unpublished books resulting from research in all areas of knowledge, with an emphasis on Latin American philosophical thought. To achieve this objective, each title is published as open access, meaning that all content is available free of charge, both for download and for online reading. No shipping or processing fees are charged for books (BPC) or book chapters (CPC). By submitting their works to the publisher, authors agree to have them published and publicly distributed in electronic format for academic, cultural, and non-commercial purposes*.
The publisher adheres to the CC BY-NC 4.0-Attribution-NonCommercial 4.0 International license, which permits non-commercial use of the book, provided, and only if, the creator is credited. Readers, authors, and the general public may read, download, copy, distribute, print, broadcast, and link to the full text of the book for any other purpose, within the limits of the license. EMC makes the databases available for accessing the published essays; visit the Indexed section of our website.
Books hosted in the publisher’s own repository are distributed in scientific databases through metadata and persistent multipurpose identifiers recognized by the International Federation of Library Associations and Institutions (IFLA) and embedded in indexing systems with basic quality standards. Furthermore, EMC is committed to the digital preservation and deposit of content in institutional repositories to expand the sharing of knowledge within the Latin American scientific community. The books are published under an open access model, free of embargoes or membership fees for both readers and authors, to contribute to bridging the digital divide among Ibero-American countries, based on the Berlin Declaration on Open Access to Knowledge in the Sciences and Humanities.
Institutional, financial, and organizational support comes from non-governmental organizations, through voluntary donations or operating exchanges with publishing funds, libraries, business incubators, associations, and research centers affiliated with public and private universities. EMC is not responsible for the opinions of the authors of the books published. For more information, please read the «Copyright Notice» section in the Guidelines for Authors section.
