O sistema de revisão tem sido composto por dois pareceristas externos designados segundo o tema e o enfoque do artigo, para avaliações cegas.O resultado da avaliação dos pareceristas poderá ser de quatro formas:(1) Aprovado sem revisões (ou mínimas revisões);(2) Aprovação condicionada à revisões;(3) Sugestão de ressubmissão (onde receberá novo parecer);(4) RejeitadoHavendo pareceres contrários, os artigos serão encaminhados a um terceiro avaliador.A REDES conta com um banco de pareceristas categorizados em temáticas relacionadas ao desenvolvimento regional, e seu recrutamento segue a política editorial que combina convites a pesquisadores do Brasil e do exterior.
