Presentation
The Revue Française des Sciences de l’Information et de la Communication (RFSIC in short) is aimed at an international audience of researchers, teachers and professionals in the information and communication field, all specialties included.
Following the long editorial tradition of the SFSIC, the Revue Française des Sciences de l’Information et de la Communication (RFSIC) has the specificity of being a journal emanating from a learned society whose orientation is given by the Board of Directors. It reports on scientific advances and emerging research in the various fields of information and communication sciences. In addition to this demanding editorial work, the RFSIC pays attention to the promotion of the activities of research teams, journals, training courses, study groups, related associations, and foreign colleagues and collectives; all of these promotion activities conform to the SFSIC’s commitments as a learned society representing a community of stakeholders.
The Revue française des Sciences de l’Information et de la Communication (RFSIC) publishes three issues per year and is available on OpenEdition.
The RFSIC meets the criteria of a rank A qualifying journal: editorial board, international scientific committee, double-blind selection of articles, and periodicity. It is therefore registered on the list of qualifying journals adopted by the CNU 71st (National Council of Universities 71st), the CPDirSIC (Permanent Conference of Directors of Research Units in Information and Communication Sciences) and the SFSIC.
The RFSIC is recognized by the International Communication Association (ICA) as an affiliated journal.

Suggest the RFSIC a thematic dossier
RFSIC’s dossiers are intended to provide an overview of the progress made in information and communication sciences, to identify, construct, and anticipate major research problematics, and to help create the conditions for international scientific visibility and recognition of our disciplines.
Our editorial form is a dossier that gathers original contributions deemed to conform with the proposed theme and with our evaluation criteria. The proposed text (between 6 and 8,000 characters), in French and English, must include: a call for papers, and a scientific committee proposal to be validated by the editorial committee (8, including 3 internationals), and a schedule.
Contributions to the dossiers (between 30 and 40,000 characters) will have to be submitted to the double-blind procedure by members of the scientific committee specially constituted for each dossier.
The agenda of the dossiers under preparation is available at the following address: journals.openedition.org
Suggest an article for the RFSIC sections
The “Spicilèges”, “Regards croisés”, “Ligne Sud”, and “Data Paper” sections bring together contributions that, in dealing with unique subjects, attempt to address original problematics and emerging research questionings likely to challenge researchers in our disciplines. The texts of the contributions to these sections will be submitted to the double-blind procedure by members of the journal’s scientific committee.
