Submission Preparation Checklist
As part of the submission process, authors are required to check off their submission’s compliance with all of the following items, and submissions may be returned to authors that do not adhere to these guidelines:
• The submission has not been previously published, nor it is under consideration for publication by any other journal.
• The submission file is in OpenOffice, Microsoft Word, or RTF document file format.
• The submitted manuscript has been anonymized to enable double-blind review and does not contain any explicit clues indicating the identity of the authors.
• Line spacing: 1,5 throughout the entire manuscript (including references) and 1 for quotations and footnotes; quotations exceeding 40 words should be separated from the text; font: 12-point for the main text, 11-point for quotations, and 10-point for footnotes; style: Times New Roman; the text should employ italics, rather than underlining (except with URL addresses); and all illustrations, figures, and tables are placed within the text at the appropriate points, rather than at the end.
• Each submission should also include a brief abstract of no more than 300 words and five keywords for indexing purposes.
Author Guidelines
• The Edgar Wind Journal is published online two times per year (June and December).
• The journal does not charge fees for publishing an article.
• The journal allows all versions of the articles (submitted version, accepted version, and published version) to be deposited in an institutional or other repository of the author’s choice without embargo.
• The Edgar Wind Journal accepts submissions in different lengths and formats (including theoretical articles, reviews, and commentaries). If you are aiming at a specific format, this should be reflected in the title and abstract. While we expect a majority of submissions to be between 4,000 and 8,000 words, we do allow for exceptions as long as the length of an article justifies its content.
