Se edita en doble formato, impreso y digital; sus lenguas oficiales son el español, el portugués y el inglés, y se estructura en cuatro secciones fijas en dos de los números: I. LAS IDEAS. SU POLÍTICA Y SU HISTORIA; II. MONOGRÁFICOS; III. ENSAYOS BIBLIOGRÁFICOS; IV. DOCUMENTOS. El tercer número tendrá una estructura libre. Sus órganos son el Director, los Subdirectores, el Secretario, el Consejo de Redacción y el Comité Científico Internacional. De entre ellos se designará a los miembros del Consejo Editorial. La sección monográfica, por su parte, podrá diferenciarse en dos subsecciones claramente separadas entre sí, al punto de constituir en realidad dos monográficos: por lo general, uno dedicado a autores relevantes en la historia del pensamiento y el otro al análisis de problemas de interés para la comunidad iberoamericana y la sociedad internacional.

Too few articlesOnly 1 articles from the last 24 months carry both submission and acceptance dates, too few for a median
Only articles that were accepted and published are counted, not the time spent on rejected manuscripts, so this usually runs longer than a publisher's "time to first decision".
