General Guidelines for Authors

Copies should be typed double-spaced in 12 point font and record the author's name in full. A word count must be provided and marked clearly on the first page of author manuscripts. Submissions below 10,000 words are favoured and submissions (inclusive of footnotes, references and tables) should not exceed 12,500 words. Note that figures and tables count towards the word limit for the space they take up in the published article. Each half-page figure or table is equivalent to 250 words; a full-page figure or table to 500 words. The editors will consider supplementary materials and encourage authors to place non-essential figures or tables in such supplementary appendices. These materials will be included in the journal webpage, but not in the print edition of the journal, with readers alerted to their on-line availability in a footnote. Should you have any questions about supplementary materials please contact the editorial office. The submission should indicate the number of words that it contains, as calculated above (excluding supplementary materials). Full details of the style authors should follow when submitting an article can be found here.
