House Style
The journal only accepts original papers which are not being
considered by any other publication. They should normally be
no more than 5,000 words and conform to the style of Ethical
Space. They should begin with a 100-word abstract followed by
six "keywords". Copy should be broken up with subheadings
at appropriate places to indicate the development of the argument.
Please submit to the editor, Prof Richard Keeble (rkeeble@lincoln.ac.uk),
by email Word attachment. All papers submitted will be peer
reviewed by two persons before inclusion in the journal. The
editor reserves the right to reject any unsuitable manuscript
without requesting an external review. Articles for inclusion
in the "News and Views" section should be no more
than 1,200 words.
Copy should be double spaced (including quotations and footnotes)
with generous margins. The author should always retain a copy
of the submission. The submission should also be accompanied
by a note giving these details: name and title; full address
for correspondence, telephone number and email address/es. Current
and recent professional activities (publications, papers etc)
should be given for inclusion in "Notes on Contributors"
section.
References should conform to the following style: in text: e.g.
Aitchison (1988: 23). Use "et al" when citing works
by more than three authors (Bridges et al 1998). The letters
a, b and c etc should be used to distinguish different citations
by the same author in the same year (Bridges 1998a, Bridges
1998b)
Then in the reference list all references cited should be listed
alphabetically. Thus:
