Instructions for Authors
The Editors seek manuscripts that make contributions to critical thinking and progressive social change, and which fit the following criteria:
- The manuscript must be submitted to both Editors as an e-mail attachment in Word or WordPerfect.
- Manuscripts should be double-spaced
- Submitted works should not normally exceed 10,000 words.
- Submitted works should be accompanied by an abstract of approximately 150 words.
- Submitted works should be accompanied by a brief autobiographical sketch of the author(s) of around 25 words.
- All footnotes should appear at the bottom of the page and be numbered consecutively. Full citations should be presented within footnotes using the following examples as guidelines:
BOOKS: Michael Mann, Incoherent Empire (London and New York: Verso, 2003), p. 123.
ARTICLES: R. Claire Snyder, "Radical Civic Virtue: Women in 19th Century Civil Society," New Political Science 26:1 (2004), pp. 51-69.
Manuscripts accepted for review are evaluated by a minimum of two scholars active in the field. Because we use anonymous peer reviews, anything that identifies the author on the title page or in the headers, citations, acknowledgements or anywhere else must be removed. Manuscripts accepted for publication must be submitted in Word or WordPerfect. Authors are expected to return clearly identified corrections within three working days of receipt of proofs. Major alterations cannot be accepted at the proofs stage.
