The New Humanism Journal of the Center for General Studies of the National University publishes academic works concerning different areas of specialization of human knowledge, relevant to the development of humanist thought in our era, under the format of a megajournal.


Since its creation in 1973, the Center for General Studies has been intrinsically humanist and, for the last decade, has been devoted to the theoretical-practical definition of an original ethical-philosophical perspective called new humanism. In this context, the notions of humanism, humanities and humanistic have been differentiated in order to provide theoretical guidance to those interested in publishing in the New Humanism Journal:

Humanism: alludes to any ethical-philosophical perspective, referring to human nature and condition (Baraona Cockerell & Mora Arias, 2017).

Humanities: is the set of classical disciplines that make up the so-called humanities - history, literature and philosophy - and that in the Renaissance displaced rhetoric, theology and scholasticism to emphasize the study centered on the human being and not on divinity (Baraona Cockerell & Mora Arias, 2017).

Humanistic: alludes to a praxis that seeks the confluence of some kind of humanism with the humanities (Baraona Cockerell & Mora Arias, 2017).
