Turkish Studies is a refereed journal. Articles submitted to Turkish Studies should be original contributions and should not be under consideration for any other publication at the same time. If another version of the article is under consideration by another publication, or has been, or will be published elsewhere, authors should clearly indicate this at the time of submission.

Turkish Studies welcomes manuscript submissions.:

• All feature articles should be between 5,000 and 7,500 words and sent via e-mail to editor Barry Rubin at profbarryrubin@yahoo.com
• Book reviews should be e-mailed to Medi Nahmiyaz at mnahmiyaz@yahoo.com
• Please consult our style sheet before sending any materials. We also welcome queries and proposals for articles sent to these addresses.

There is no standard length for articles, but 5,000–7,500 words (including notes and references) is a useful target. The article should begin with an indented and italicized summary of around 100 words, which should describe the main arguments and conclusions.

Details of the author's institutional affiliation, full address and other contact information should be included on a separate cover sheet. Any acknowledgements should be included on the cover sheet, as should a note of the exact length of the article.

All diagrams, charts, graphs and maps should be referred to as figures and consecutively numbered. Tables should be kept to a minimum and contain only essential data. Each figure and table must be given an Arabic numeral, followed by a heading, and be referred to in the text.

Free article access: Corresponding authors will receive free online access to their article through our website (www.informaworld.com) and a complimentary copy of the issue containing their article. Reprints of articles published in this journal can be purchased through Rightslink® when proofs are received. If you have any queries, please contact our reprints department at reprints@tandf.co.uk

Spelling: American spelling and punctuation should be used throughout. Turkish letters must be used.

Numbers from one to ten should be spelled out, other numbers should be given as Arabic numerals. Dates should be in the form December 21, 1999; 1994–98; the 1990s. Use percent rather than %.

Sub-headings: should be in bold, upper and lower case. Sub-sub-headings should be in italics, upper and lower case.

Notes: The number of notes should be kept to a minimum. They should be numbered consecutively throughout the article, using a raised numeral in the text, to correspond to a list of notes placed at the end.

In the list of notes, consistency is most important in references to books, articles and manuscript sources; note that initial capitals are used for all nouns and important adjectives in titles. Some examples are given below. All of the information shown must be included.
