Author Guidelines
The same author can only have one article published per year in the Journal of Accounting, Management and Governance (JAMG). This rule applies regardless of the position of the individual in the authorship of the articles.
Before submitting an article, authors must ensure that all authors are enrolled in the system. Please ensure that full name, e-mail address, educational institution, ORCID and contact numbers of each of the authors are registered in the journal's system. This is a necessary condition for the article to go through the evaluation of Desk Review.
Remove any identification/mention to the authors of the article in the submitted file. Do not forget to check the "Remove file properties" option in Windows Explorer. Ensuring, therefore, the Blind Peer Evaluation.

Paper: A4 (29.7 x 21 cm);
Margins: upper and left 3cm; lower and right 2cm;
Font: Times New Roman, size 12;
Spacing: simple (between characters, words and lines), and indentation (1.25cm) at the beginning of paragraphs;
Size:Â The article should contain between 5,000 and 8,000 words, including title, abstract, content itself, tables, figures, notes and bibliographical references;
Pagination: Include the number of pages in the lower right corner of the document.
Details: BOLD should only be used for titles and subtitles; ITALIC should only be used for words in a foreign language; "DOUBLE QUOTES" should be used for direct quotes and sentences of interviewees; and [Brackets] should be used within double-quote text to isolate material that in the original font was enclosed in quotation marks.
Â
2. STRUCTURE
Theoretical-empirical articles should follow the following structure: (a) title (Portuguese and English), abstract in English and abstract in Portuguese, (b) introduction (contextualization, problem development and research objective) and review of the empirical literature concerning the problem, (d) results (report of findings, preferably with use of tables and / or charts), (e) discussion (interpretation and interpretation of data), method (description of participants / subjects, instruments, materials / equipment and procedures used to conduct research) implications of results), (f) conclusion or final considerations, (g) references;
Articles of literature review or exclusively theoretical authors are expected to: (a) clearly define a problem, (b) summarize previous research to inform the reader about the state of the research, (c) identify relationships, contradictions, gaps and/or inconsistencies in the literature (d) suggest next research steps to solve the problems identified, (e) References. There is no pre-defined section structure for this type of contribution, so authors should seek a consistent format for the text. It is essential that there is an organizing argument and not just a compilation of research already done.

Note:
Article Evaluation 1. Accounting, Management and Governance adopts the triple anonymous evaluation system (Editor-in-Chief or member of the Scientific Editorial Board and two ad hoc evaluators) to analyze articles submitted for publication. 2. The evaluation of the articles submitted to CGG (JAMG) will focus on the following aspects: a) level of contribution to increase scientific knowledge and/or practical application. b) quality of the theoretical reference used. It is hoped that the article will contain the state of the art in the explored subject and that the theoretical conceptual framework will be supported by articles published in good periodicals. Citations and references supported in textbooks and works published in annals of events should be avoided; c) suitability of the methodology used; d) level of deepening of the analyzes, discussions and articulations of ideas and concepts; e) quality of conclusions and recommendations; f) internal consistency and text structure; g) writing quality.
