Submission of Manuscripts

Identities: Global Studies in Culture and Power welcomes the submission of papers of up to 8,000 words which address these issues and themes. Four copies of papers, along with either an e-mail file version or a disk copy, should be submitted to either Dr. Jonathan Hill or Dr. Thomas M. Wilson, the editors of Identities. All articles are anonymously reviewed. Manuscripts should be concise yet sufficiently detailed to permit critical review. Each article should be summarized in an abstract of 150-250 words, which should be typed, double-spaced, on a separate page. Manuscripts should conclude with a section on Implications for Practice stating what the implications of the research findings are to practitioners in the field and including any recommendations for change indicated by the research results. Manuscripts should be submitted to either Dr. Jonathan Hill or Dr. Thomas M. Wilson, the editors of Identities. Authors are strongly encouraged to submit manuscripts on disk. The disk should be prepared using MS Word or WordPerfect and should be clearly labeled with the authors' names, file name, and software program. All parts of the manuscript should be typewritten, double-spaced, with margins of at least one inch on all sides. Number manuscript pages consecutively throughout the paper. Authors should also supply a shortened version of the title suitable for the running head, not exceeding 50 character spaces.

Each manuscript must be accompanied by a statement that it has not been published elsewhere and that it has not been submitted simultaneously for publication elsewhere. Authors are responsible for obtaining permission to reproduce copyrighted material from other sources and are required to sign an agreement for the transfer of copyright to the publisher. All accepted manuscripts, artwork, and photographs become the property of the publisher.

Tables and Figures

Tables and figures should not be embedded in the text, but should be included as separate sheets or files. A short descriptive title should appear above each table with a clear legend and any footnotes suitably identified below. All units must be included. Figures should be completely labeled, taking into account necessary size reduction. Captions should be typed, double-spaced, on a separate sheet. All original figures should be clearly marked in pencil on the reverse side with the number, author's name, and top edge indicated.

Illustrations

Illustrations submitted (line drawings, halftones, photos, photomicrographs, etc.) should be clean originals or digital files. Digital files are recommended for highest quality reproduction and should follow these guidelines:

• 300 dpi or higher
• sized to fit on journal page
• EPS, TIFF, or PSD format only
• submitted as separate files, not embedded in text files

Color illustrations will be considered for publication; however, the author will be required to bear the full cost involved in their printing and publication. The charge for the first page with color is $900.00. The next three pages with color are $450.00 each. A custom quote will be provided for color art totaling more than 4 journal pages. Good-quality color prints or files should be provided in their final size. The publisher has the right to refuse publication of color prints deemed unacceptable.

References

Bibliographical references should be cited in the text by the author's last name, date of publication, and page, e.g. (Smith 1988: 252), or if the author's last name is mentioned by the date and page reference only, e.g. (1992: 365). Entries in the references should be in alphabetical order by authors and should include the following: surname, publisher; for articles: name of journal in full, volume number (Arabic numbers to be used throughout), and pagination. Examples are:

Anderson, Benedict 1983. Imagined Communities: Reflections on the Origin and Spread of Nationalism. London: Verso.

Proofs and Reprints

The corresponding author will receive proofs, which should be proofread and returned within 48 hours of receipt. Corrections are limited to printer's errors - no substantial author's changes will be made. Each author of the article will receive one complimentary copy of the issue in which the article appears, as well as 25 offprints of their article. The senior or corresponding author is responsible for distributing copies to co-authors. Offprints of individual articles or additional copies of the issue may be ordered from the publisher by using the order form included with page proofs.
