Aims & Scope

Confins is a French-Brazilian journal of geography, dedicated to the publication of original articles, in French or Portuguese and to translations of existing articles. Abundantly illustrated, the articles deal with Brazilian, French or other subjects, with a preference given to comparative articles and articles by Brazilians on Europe. The journal disseminates research findings in geography in both directions, in all its components, with a priority given to regional geography. No exclusivity on approaches, but all the rigor of a scientific journal, and therefore the validation of articles by international committees.
