Instructions for Authors
Manuscripts. Articles submitted to Revolutionary Russia should be original contributions and should not be under consideration for any other publication at the same time. There is no standard length for articles but 10,000 words (including notes and references) is a useful target. The articles should begin with a summary of around 100 words, which should describe the main arguments and conclusions of the article. Details of all authors' institutional affiliations and full address, including email, for correspondence should be included on a separate cover sheet. Any acknowledgements should be included on the cover sheet, as well as a note of the exact length of the article.
Electronic Submission. Authors should send the final, revised version of their articles in both hard copy paper and electronic forms. It is essential that the hard copy (paper) version exactly matches the material on electronic file. Please print out the hard copy from the electronic version you are sending. Notes should be grouped at the end of the file. Electronic material should be in PC compatible MS Word format. Disks should be labelled with the journal name, author's name, article title and software used.
Submissions should be sent to:
Jonathan Smele, Department of History, Queen Mary, University of London, 327 Mile End Road, London E1 4NS (j.d.smele@qmul.ac.uk).
Tables and captions to illustrations. Tables must be typed out on separate sheets and not included as part of the text. The captions to illustrations should be gathered together and also typed out on a separate sheet. Tables and Figures should be numbered consecutively by Arabic numerals. The approximate position of tables and figures should be indicated in the manuscript. Captions should include keys to any symbols used.
Figures. Please supply one set of artwork in a finished form, suitable for reproduction. Diagrams and maps should be prepared in black and white, and copied to a separate disk in uncompressed .TIF or .JPG formats in individual files. Tints should be avoided; use open patterns instead. Figures will not normally be redrawn by the publisher.
Citations of other work should be limited to those strictly necessary for the argument. Any quotations should be brief, and accompanied by precise references.
Style. Please follow the style used in the current issue of the journal. British spelling and punctuation are preferred, so use the Oxford Dictionary as a guide. The journal prefers ‘-ize' rather then'-ise' in words such as ‘organize'. Quotations should be within single inverted commas; double within single.
References. Reference citation in the text should be as follows. The references should be given in shortened form in a footnote or endnote with a full version given in the list of references at the end of the article. Note reference numbers should appear as superior numerals following any punctuation marks (except the dash, which they should precede). The reference list should be given in alphabetical order following Chicago Humanities style:
