Revista Ibeoramericana de Estudios Municipales (RIEM), belonging to the Universidad Autónoma de  Chile, is a scientific publication of Ibero-American scope, free and open access. The journal is continuously published and contains unpublished academic articles and reviews, published in Spanish, Portuguese and English.

The journal seeks to become a space for interdisciplinary dialogue on development and subnational governance in Latin America. For the same reason, RIEM accepts articles constructed from particular case studies, which are always related from both a theoretical and empirical point of view, with broader processes, both national and international. The disciplines covered by the journal are: public administration, political science, sociology, law, economics, anthropology, psychology, geography, education and health.
