Sumario:The author discusses the double-blind arbitration, for the evaluation of work submitted to journals, as one of the most widely accepted validation procedures in the field of scientific research. She explains how this kind of management procedural is in information, cultura y sociedad: revista del Instituto de Investigaciones Bibliotecológicas (FFyL-UBA). From the perspective of certain questions raised about this procedure., the evaluation system has some slow changes in harmony with the changes in the modes of scientific communication: open files with voluntary assessments, reliance on editorial boards for the selection of items. The advantages are the democratization of knowledge and speed of publication. Without denying that traditional evaluation can't stop kidnappings, frauds or arbitrariness, it is stated that so far has been effective, especially when it guarantees the anonymity of those involved in the process.
