Faces de Eva. Estudos sobre a Mulher is a biannual scientific journal based at CICS.NOVA - Interdisciplinary Centre of Social Sciences, School of Social Sciences and Humanities of NOVA University Lisbon (NOVA FCSH). Faces de Eva’s eponymous research team began publishing the Journal in 1999.

Over the years, the Journal has been affirmed for its diversity of themes and for the transversal nature of the various fields of knowledge that contribute to the knowledge, increasingly complex and multiple, of the human person. Therefore, its structure reflects scientific concerns, in the sense of giving voice and echo to novelties in the theoretical field of gender, feminist and women’s studies, without forgetting the underlying premises, but also highlighting aspects of the experiences of real people that enable processes of identification and social modelling. This double dimension of the Journal, and certainly innovative, constitutes an editorial option that stems from a scientific approach of articulation between theoretical and empirical knowledge.

Faces de Eva accepts and publishes scientific original articles written in Portuguese, Spanish, French and English, promoting the international dissemination of its contents. It covers a wide range of headings, and all submitted original articles (Estudos) are subject to a peer review evaluation process by experts. Although the Journal allows the publication of original articles with a more theoretical discussion component, it favours scientific articles resulting from research. All the other sections of the Journal also follow publication norms that include them in international classification and metric criteria, increasingly safeguarded by the publication, and whose results are being consolidated.

Emerging from the academy and aimed at it, the Journal is constituted as a proposal of scientific dialogue increasingly asserted in Portuguese universities.
