Submission Guidelines

     Please send manuscripts via e-mail in Microsoft Word format. Please include an abstract with your article submission. The abstract should be 5 to 7 sentences long. Once a manuscript has been accepted we will ask authors to ensure that all citations be in footnotes and that any U.S. footnote citations conform to The Bluebook: A Uniform System of Citation (preferably latest edition). Foreign books must also be in Bluebook format, but all other foreign citations must be cited according to foreign citation requirements.

     There is no season as such; we accept manuscripts all year on a rotating basis. Please also submit your full contact (mailing) information. As for the length, while there is no formal guideline at present, The Editors-in-Chief have expressed a preference for papers of up to 20,000 words in length, including footnotes; shorter papers are preferred. While the Editors-in-Chief would never automatically dismiss a paper just because of length, the Journal rarely publishes papers exceeding this length.

     Please send manuscripts to the Production Manager:  Annette Gregory.
