The Revista Argentina de Musicología (RAM), with ISSN 2618-3072 (online) –ISSN 1666-1060 (print)–, is the main scientific publication of the Argentine Association of Musicology (AAM). RAM is a scientific journal published biannually, with peer-reviewed articles, free access and focused on the field of Musicology, understood from an extended conception –which includes both Historical Musicology, Ethnomusicology and Popular Music Studies–, in its different theoretical, practical and historical manifestations. The RAM is an open access journal, which means that all content is freely available and at no cost to the user or their institution. Users may read, download, copy, distribute, print, search or link to the full texts of the articles, or use them for any other lawful purpose, without seeking prior authorization from the editor or author. This is in accordance with the BOAI definition of open access.

The RAM publishes texts within a wide range of topics in Musicology, including:

  • scientific/research articles (with a maximum length of 10,000 words, including footnotes and captions for images/graphics)
  • reviews of books or musical/audiovisual productions related to Musicology in the broadest sense (with a length of between 1,000 and 3,000 words)

The RAM accepts contributions from researchers, teachers, members of the GLAM community (Galleries, Libraries, Archives and Museums), etc., linked to an institution or independent and from any country/nationality, provided that they are original research works (not previously published), that the content of the article is related to Musicology in its different manifestations, and that the work is not in the process of being evaluated in any other publication.
The works published in the RAM must be written in Spanish.
Articles published in this journal may be included in thematic or institutional repositories from the moment of their publication.
The journal's Editorial Team is committed to diversity and equality and is made up of researchers linked to prestigious academic institutions, as well as being members of the Argentine Association of Musicology. The journal's editorial policy suggests the use of inclusive, non-sexist language in scientific articles (it is recommended to take into account the CCT CONICET-CENPAT Guide to Inclusive Non-Sexist Language).
Due to the number of articles received, the journal reserves the right to reject an article without peer review or for failure to comply with the author guidelines, in accordance with the preliminary review of the Editorial Team. It is important to note that a translation is not considered an article.
