STYLE
Authors are responsible for ensuring that their manuscripts conform to the journal style.
The Editors will not undertake retyping of manuscripts before publication. The full guide to style and presentation must be followed.
Spelling: British spelling and punctuation should be used throughout. Capitalise specific heads of state; lower case for other ministers and officials. Capitalise Left and Right when used as a noun (the Italian Left) otherwise lower case (left-wing). Similarly use the West, the East, North America, but eastern, western, north-east, south-west etc.
- Figures: Dates should be in the form 5 December 1995; 1994-8; the 1990s. Numbers should be spelled out from one to ten, then given as numerals.
- Subheadings: Subheadings must be clearly shown, and should be placed in bold, italics, and upper case.
- Quotations: All quotations over four lines must be indented and single spaced. Use single quotation marks for all quotations and authorial emphasis, use double quotation marks for journal articles/chapters in edited books, and for authorial emphasis within quotations and blocked quotes (e.g. In Griffin's "Between Metapolitics and Apoliteia: The New Right's Strategy for Conserving the Fascist Vision in the 'Interregnum'", Armin Mohler is quoted as declaring: 'We stand in this traditional period, this "interregnum", which leaves its mark on every spiritual activity'.)
- Foreign words and all titles of books or plays appearing within the text should be italicised. Non-Anglophone or transliterated words should also appear with translations provided in square brackets the first time they appear (e.g. weltanschauung [world-view])
- If acronyms are employed (e.g. the BUF), the full name should also be given the first time they appear.
Endnotes:
Citations in the text should be as follows: references should be given in full when first cited; thereafter, a shortened form may be given, denoting the citation number of the corresponding text (see below). Endnote reference numbers should appear as superior numerals at the end of all punctuation marks in the main body of the text. More than one reference at a single location may be combined to create a single note. Where possible, endnote text should be kept to a minimum. Care should be taken to ensure there can be no confusion as to what is being referred to. For subsequent references, Ibid. may be used, but op. cit. should be avoided. Endnotes should be given as follows:
