Because of this reality, and to ensure its continuity with the quality recognized in national and international scientific community, the Journal will change its payment model. [...]in addition to the articles presented in this edition, in the following months will be published new articles corresponding to the Annual Volume 2019, including all available sections of the Journal. The theme featured in 2019 is “Oceans”, and for 2020 the theme is “Urbanization, planning and climate change”,highlighting the central debate of the role of climate change and its impacts on spatial dynamics, in particular related to urbanization and globalization, and in the planning processes of the territories. With post-disaster evaluations, in this era of neo-liberal arguments for deregulation and financialization, there is a proposal or adoption of cheaper measures that reproduce the predatory structures and mechanisms that govern capitalist competition, at the expense of the environment and human health. [...]there is an urgent need to review the existing model in the mining sector.
