Gratitude and Planning for 2026

The editorial team of the Journal of Administrative Sciences (RCA) expresses its gratitude to the entire academic community that made the 2025 edition a complete success.
We are immensely grateful to the authors who entrusted their valuable work to our publication, enriching the scientific debate with their innovative research. Our recognition extends, in a special way, to the dedicated reviewers, whose rigor and expertise are pillars for the quality and integrity of each published article.
We would also like to inform you that, due to the high demand for submissions and the time required for the return of reviewers' evaluations, as well as the revisions by the authors themselves, the average response time, both for desk review and editorial workflow, has experienced a certain increase, even with our constant pursuit of optimizing our processes to ensure speed without compromising our excellence.

Thus, in order to further improve our editorial workflows and prepare for a 2026 with new perspectives, we announce the temporary suspension of our activities starting on December 10th, with a return scheduled for March 10th, 2026. This period will be dedicated to strategic planning and the maintenance of our infrastructure, aiming to offer a high-quality Journal.

We wish everyone a period of rest and renewal, with the hope of a 2026 full of new discoveries and fruitful collaborations for the science of administration. We count on everyone's partnership to continue promoting the advancement of knowledge in our field.

Best Wishes and Happy 2026!
