中文摘要

As with most emerging-nation journals, South American scientific journals struggle in their efforts to reach the global market. Nonetheless, there are exceptions to this trend. This paper chronicles the journey of one of those exceptions, the Brazilian journal Psychology & Neuroscience. I focus on events leading up to and consummating the publishing partnership between Psychology & Neuroscience and its current publisher, The American Psychological Association. An analysis is presented that examines the journal in terms of its publication language, business model, editorial stability, editorial board makeup, and the international qualities of its editors. I present this with the hope it may be useful to emerging-nation scientists and scholars, as well as publishers and institutions, that share similar objectives of distributing their findings to the global market.
