The Journal welcomes manuscripts of between 4,000 and 6000 words (inclusive of references) from research areas devoted to post-war European affairs.
Articles submitted to the Journal should not have been published elsewhere nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere. Submission of a paper will be held to imply that it contains original unpublished work and is not being submitted for publication elsewhere. Submission of a paper also implies that, upon acceptance of an article by the journal, the author(s) will transfer copyright of the article to the publisher. It is understood that submission of the paper for publication has been approved by all of the authors.
Manuscripts should be carefully checked by the author(s) for errors before they are submitted. It is authors’ responsibility to ensure the accuracy of quotations and references, and to get permissions to cite another person’s work (where necessary).
Articles will be peer reviewed and if accepted, final pre-publication proofs will be forwarded to author(s) for verification and checking. Alterations and/or additions will not generally be accepted at this stage.
Where possible, authors should prepare their manuscript using Microsoft Word, Times New Roman, 12 point font. Manuscripts spacing should be 1.5 lines.
Headings should appear in bold on a separate line but otherwise use the same formatting as the text. Paragraphs should be separated by a blank line, be left aligned and NOT indented. Long quotations should be indented.
An abstract of no more than 150 words should be included at the beginning of the article, followed by at least four (4) key words arranged in alphabetical order. Manuscripts must be submitted online using the submission facility in the ANZJES menu on the ESAANZ website.
All diagrams, charts and graphs should be referred to as figures and consecutively numbered. Tables should be kept to a minimum and contain only essential data. Each figure and table must be given an Arabic numeral, followed by a heading, and be referred to in the text. All illustrations, figures, and tables are placed within the text at the appropriate points, rather than at the end.
Full stops are not required in the following circumstances:
