Antrocom Journal Submission Guidelines

Word Manuscript

∙ Please submit your manuscript in a single Microsoft Word document.

∙ Please do not use bold type or underlining in your manuscript. However, italics may be used. ∙ Please do not use All Caps in your manuscript.

Parts of the Manuscript

Titles

As an author in the digital age, select your titles carefully, using keywords and expressions that will  attract potential readers searching for subjects online. Titles should be descriptive and clear.

Headings

Indicate a clear hierarchy in the headings by differentiating between heading levels. Font size must  be used here to make the headings clear for the text formatter.

Footnotes

Create footnotes in the style that Word permits. Please place footnote numbers after punctuation,  like this.⁴ 

Tables and Figures

Tables and figures should not be wider than 11 cm. Please include a List of Tables and/or a List of  Figures, which are numbered consecutively. Figures are illustrations, graphs and charts. If graphs  have been created in Excel, please send the separate Excel file with the graph. Each table should  have a title preceding it. Please use the table below as a model.

Table 4: Proceeds from Privatization, 1990–1996 (in US$ millions)

Illustrations

If your article is to contain photographs or prints, please provide digital images. It is important that  the images supplied are of a sufficient quality; therefore, please read the guidelines below carefully. ∙ If supplying digital images, please send them in a separate file with the Word MS. Please do not position the images within the Word MS itself. But please do indicate where in the MS the image should be placed (i.e. insert ‘see Figure 1’ in the body of the text). Please remember to include a caption for each image.

∙ Please supply digital images as jpg files or png files with a file extension .jpg or .png.

∙ Digital images should be supplied to a resolution of 300dpi. Lower resolutions will result in your image looking pixellated. (Note that images taken directly from websites tend to be low-resolution (72dpi) and will therefore not be suitable for printing, even though they may look fine on-screen.)

∙ Please check the size of your image as well as the resolution. Very small images will need to be enlarged to fit the page size, which will negatively impact the resolution. As a result, small images may need to be supplied at a higher resolution than 300 dpi.

∙ If you are scanning the images from a printed book, please ensure that you descreen the image when scanning. Images which have been printed in books have a line-screen on them. Unless this existing line-screen is removed when the image is scanned, there will be a ‘duplication’ of line-screen when the image is printed a second time, resulting in unsightly patterns called screen-clash. The only way to avoid this is to remove the line-screen by descreening when scanning.

∙ Scanned images should also be free from any marks resulting from the scanning process (images should be checked at 100% enlargement on screen).

∙ Please ensure that you have obtained all permissions for the images you plan to use.

Permissions

Please ensure that you have obtained both print and electronic rights for extensive prose or poetry  extracts, third-party illustrations and previously published work of your own.

Antrocom Journal Style Guidelines

Please ensure that the style of the manuscript is consistent and accurate throughout. The complete  and utter failure to adhere to the guidelines will result in the exclusion of the Article EVEN IF it was  previously approved.

References

The style should be uniform throughout the work. The bibliography should be alphabetized by  author last name and multiple works by one author should be organized chronologically. If more than one work by the same author has the same date, add ‘a’ and ‘b’ after the dates and organize them  alphabetically by title (see below).

(John Doe, e-mail message to author, 28 February 2010)

or

(John Doe, pers. comm.)

Citations/Quotations

Always put in text citations. Do not use note for the citation only.

In-text citations should use the author–date style and be inserted into text prior to punctuation. In  indented block quotes, however, the author–date citation follows end punctuation. The page  number may be included after a colon, if necessary:

For years, most textbooks referred to the five stages of economic integration (Jessop 1995b). According to Higgins, preventative medicine is ‘cost effective’ (2005: 56), but not efficient. Berkley (2009:43) argued that ‘[g]lobal climate change has caused billions of pounds of damage.’

“Only upon the rarest occasions do American like to feel isolated from the mainstream”  (Llewellyn 2006:229).

Use square brackets for an editor’s interpolation (‘in many respects [hers is an] exemplary  biography’).

For quotations in prose that exceed five lines, indent the entire quote and do not use quotation  marks.

Italics

Use italics:

∙ For names of ships, film and play titles, works of art, long poems, newspapers (Note: only  The Times, The Guardian and The Economist have ‘The’ as part of title), paintings, books,  magazines, journals, TV programme names

∙ For foreign words and phrases not in common use (see New Hart’s Rules) ∙ For emphasis (do not use bold or underlining)

∙ For key terms or coined words

Do not use italics:

∙ For poem, essay and short story titles; instead use roman type and single quotation marks ∙ Foreign words in common usage (rendezvous, regime, elite; Note: no accents)

Abbreviations, Contractions and Acronyms

Use full points:

∙ If an abbreviation does not end with the final letter of the word: ed., vol., no., Rev. ∙ After initials in a name: R. A. Butler (and leave a space between initials)

Do not use full points:

∙ If a contraction ends with the final letter of the word: Dr, Mr, Mrs, St, eds, edn ∙ In metric units of measurement: cm, kg

∙ In acronyms, such as initials of organizations or associations: RAC, BBC, USA

Capitalization

Keep the use of capitalized letters to a minimum. Use capital letters only for proper nouns, and for  the initial letters of the full formal names of institutions, organizations, buildings, and the like British  Museum, United Nations, Bridge of Sighs. Use capital letters:

∙ For proper names; proper names of institutions, movements or organizations; words derived  from proper names (Dantesque, Latinize); prefixes and titles (President Barack Obama) ∙ For recognized geographical names (Northern Ireland)

∙ For proper names of periods or natural phenomena

∙ For historical eras and events (the Reformation); trade names (Levi’s)

∙ For titles of works of literature in English

Do not use capital letters:

∙ For descriptions of geographical regions (northern England)

∙ For political theories (socialism, communism, fascism, the left, the right)

Punctuation

Dashes: Use an ‘en’ rule with a space on either side – to be typed thus.

Ellipses:

∙ Use three dots with spaces on either side … even if a sentence starts or ends with one. ∙ Indicate the elision of text from within a quote like this […] with remaining text continuing. ∙ If a full stop follows the elision of text, indicate like this […].

Hyphens: Maintain consistency throughout the manuscript for all key terms.

∙ Use hyphens for compound nouns (make-up), adjectival phrases (middle-class  neighbourhoods), between repeated vowels (co-operate)

∙ Do not use hyphens for established compound nouns (soundtrack, breakdown), between an  adverb and adjective if the adverb ends in ‘ly’ (widely known), between two vowels that  don’t clash (reintroduce), in words with the ‘re-‘ prefix that don’t clash (rewrite, rethink)

Commas: Do not use serial commas in lists: We bought apples, oranges and pears. Spelling

Use British spellings, but use -ize endings (realize, organize, etc.). However, note that ‘analyse’ should be used, not ‘analyze’.

Numbers

Use figures:

∙ For years: 1984, 1950s (not fifties)

∙ For numbers in a series: Table 1, Chapter 4

∙ For percentages: 25 per cent (Note: with ‘per cent’ as two words). If the article belongs to a  hard science discipline (chemistry, physics, biology, medicine etc. or there are more than two % either in the sentence or in the paragraph, please write % instead of ‘per cent’.

Example

Please note:

∙ Surface measures: use mc for cubic metres and kmq for squares kilometers.  ∙ Formulas: In formulas and scientific notes use superscripts and subscripts as per SI notes. ∙ In chemical formulas put the stechiometric ratios as subscripts.

∙ Measures units can be written both in the SI and the Anglo-Saxon system putting the  equivalent of the other system in text between brackets: 10miles (16,1 km) , 14m (15,31  yds).

∙ In standard scientific notation, the word per is represented by a virgule: km/h is accepted for kilometers per hour. Use cm³ rather than cc for cubic centimetre.

Do not use figures:

∙ For numbers less than 100 in non scientific notes: twenty-five people

∙ For centuries: nineteenth century (not 19th century) and nineteenth-century history

Spans of numbers:

∙ Use an en rule (–) between the numbers in a range (pp. 23–36, 1939–45, or 9.30–5.30). ∙ In titles and headings, put numbers in full: 1931–1993

Translations

Please provide English translations of direct quotations in foreign languages. The English translation  should appear in square brackets following the original:

∙ Short quotations:

The cyclist Jean Bégué was ‘de ces Jean qu’on n’ose pas appeler Jeannot’ [one of those men  named John one dare not call Johnny] (93).

∙ Display quotations:

A jutjar per com es presentava l’alba, la jornada s’anunciava

certament moguda, o sigui feta ara de cops de sol espetegador, ara

de gèlids ruixims de pluja, tot plegat amanit amb ràfegues

imprevistes de vent.

[Judging by how dawn presented, the day promised to be certainly

varied, so made of blows of punishing sun, and gushes of icy rain, all

spiced with unexpected gusts of wind.]

∙ Titles of foreign-language works:

Hohler’s novel Der neue Berg [The New Mountain] (1989) is in part a satirical work. ∙ Terms or short phrases:

Montella was capocannoniere [top scorer], with eleven goals.

Footnotes may alternatively be used for English translations, or for the original foreign language  quotation if the majority of the text is in English.

Secondary sources may be provided in English translation only if the original foreign language text is  not necessary for your argument.

If the translation is your own, please follow it with ‘(my translation)’. Please be sure to credit any  published translations used.

ANTROCOM JOURNAL CORRECTIONS GUIDELINES 

Please read these instructions carefully.

Any corrections that do not comply with these instructions will not be completed. Stage 1: Formatted Proof and General Information regarding Correction

• You have now received the ‘Formatted Proof’ (as a .pdf file). It is understood that this is the final  text and therefore any corrections should purely be related to the typesetting. This is also the only  opportunity you will have to make corrections. The ‘Formatted Proof’ is the only proof that can be  corrected.  

Corrections should be provided in a list in the following manner:

p. 72, para 4, line 14: change ‘battle’ to ‘Battle’.

• Corrections are now limited to errors in the typesetting, This is not an opportunity to edit or  correct the content (i.e. Rewriting or revising your wording is not possible), however spelling, typos,  and factual error corrections are allowed.

• Please note: Corrections that affect pagination cannot be completed. This is to prevent errors in  the index.

• You need only make editorial changes that are necessary for reader understanding. In other words,  it is important to avoid rewording or rephrasing text when the essential meaning is not changed. For  example:

p.102, para 3, line 7: change ‘it is common’ to ‘it is not uncommon’ – this correction would not be  completed as it is rephrasing text where the essential meaning does not change.

• If your corrections are difficult to decipher then they cannot be completed. In general, we need  quotation marks around the text to be deleted or inserted (see examples above). This is so it is clear  what is instructional text and which text should actually be inserted into the book, in order to avoid  introducing further errors.

• Please be aware that Footnotes can be neither inserted nor deleted at this late stage. • Please make sure to be clear, concise, consistent and decisive:

✔ Please avoid ambiguous corrections such as: p.52, change ‘a’ to ‘as’; instead write: p.6, para 1, line 1: change first instance of ‘a’ to ‘as’.

✔ Please be sure to use correct grammar and include correct punctuation when writing your corrections.

✔ Please be sure not to make any unnecessary changes to punctuation, as this can sometimes  disrupt consistency within the text (see example immediately above this point).

✔ Do not cut and paste sections of text with the subtle correction change within, as this may be missed. Be sure to be specific about what you would like changed.

✔ Typesetters are not copy-editors and therefore are not expected to make decisions about  grammar and wording on your behalf. Make sure you are decisive in your corrections and  that you are very clear about what is required so that your corrections can be completed  quickly and efficiently.

• Global Changes. Do not list each occurrence if every instance should be changed throughout the  book, but be sure to note that this is required. For example, you should write: Please change all  instances of ‘aging’ to ‘ageing’ throughout the book.

• Be sure to proofread your corrections before you send them in order to ensure they make sense  and that you are not introducing errors. An example of this:

p.27, para 2, line 2 change ‘ethnog-raphers’ to ‘entho-graphers’

How to send your Corrections

Your corrections can be delivered in two different ways:

• As a marked-up PDF. Please see separate document ‘annotate Reader’ on how to do the mark-up. • Via email in a Word document. For example:

✔ p.11, para 2, line 1: indent first line of the paragraph.

✔ p.52, para 1, line 2 from bottom: delete ‘university’, replace with ‘University’ Stage 2: Final Proof

After your book has been corrected and the index has been added in, you will receive a Final Proof to be approved for delivery to Production. This is purely an opportunity to check that your existing  corrections have been completed as expected and that your index has been correctly typeset. This is  not an opportunity to create further correction. You will generally have a 24-48hr window upon  receiving your Final Proof in order to give it one last check before it is sent for Production review.

Excessive Corrections

• Please bear in mind that you will need to check every correction you have listed, to make sure it has been completed as expected.

• It is important that your corrections are not presented in a confusing way and that they do not contain additional information that is irrelevant to the typesetter (e.g. an explanation for why you  have decided to make that particular correction).
