Editora Universidade de Brasília was founded in 1962, as a complementary organ in the organizational structure of the University of Brasilia (UnB), and is one of the oldest university publishing houses in Brazil. It has a double role as a private and public institution: on the one hand, it acts as a company because it is responsible for manufacturing and marketing books and, on the other hand, it also acts as a public agency linked to the university, with the mission of disseminating culture, scientific knowledge, research, and extension. From this perspective, the main editorial lines are: a) Works focused on the large areas of knowledge, selected by public calls. b) Works aimed at the large areas of knowledge, especially technical and health related fields, in partnership with the Departments of UnB, Postgraduate Programs, and other public or private institutions. c) Translation of classical and contemporary works. d) Works in the fields of Philosophy, International Relations, Law, Social Sciences, Letters, and History, fields in which the UnB publishing house holds a long tradition. e) Works focused on large areas of knowledge, received on a continuous flow basis and selected by our Board of professors. In its 56 years of existence, Editora Universidade de Brasília has stood out in the national scene for promoting and publishing works of cultural, artistic, and scientific relevance, mainly by means of co-editions and partnerships with other publishing houses and institutions.
