Una Mens - Manuscript Submission Form

Submit to Una Mens

We invite you to submit theoretical, empirical, methodological, and creative scholarship across disciplines. If AI helped shape your work, we ask you to document that collaboration openly [AI-Collaboration Note Guide]. At Una Mens, we ask authors not to hide AI's role, but to show it clearly, so readers can follow how ideas were co-created.

Before you submit, please have ready:

• manuscript title

• author and co-author details

• abstract or short description

• manuscript file

• Human–AI Collaboration Field Note or declaration of no AI use

• licensing preference

Manuscript Information

How your submission is reviewed:

Every manuscript submitted to Una Mens is read in full by a human editor. At this stage of the journal's life, that human is the chief editor: no submission is evaluated, declined, or accepted without complete human reading and human judgement. AI systems may assist in review only under the constraints described in our editorial policy, and never as a substitute for the human read.

What happens after you submit

You will receive an email confirmation at the address you provide. Within three days, a human, not an autoresponder, will follow up with your submission ID (format: UM-2026-###). Please include that ID in any correspondence about your manuscript. If you don't hear from us within three days, write to editor@unamensjournal.org; forms occasionally misfire, and we would rather hear from you twice than not at all.

Response Time

We aim to return either a decision or a substantitive status update within 14 days of confirming receipt.
