Advice for contributors

General
The Editorial Board welcomes submission of articles and book reviews for publication in the Journal of Social Change and Critical Inquiry. All submissions are reviewed by two referees on the understanding that the work has not been published elsewhere. Articles should be less than 6,000 words and reviews less than 2,000.

You can send your submission (formatted in Word 6) as an email attachment to Angela Pratt or on computer disk to the mailing address shown below. The disk should be labelled with your name and the name of the article. Unsolicited submissions should be accompanied by a {non-refundable} submission fee of $A45 (cheques should be made payable to the University of Wollongong).

Please also send three hard copies of your manuscript (double spaced with 2.5 cm margins on all sides) to:

Illustrations
JoSCCI welcomes articles which are accompanied by illustrations. All photographs and images must be suitable for scanning and be submitted on separate sheets. The place in the text where the images are to appear should be marked. Captions should identify the artist or photographer, source and date of the image (in the same way as described in the ‘Reference’ section above). JoSCCI cannot pay for the preparation of illustrations or for royalties for their publication in the journal. Authors are required to obtain permission to publish images and provide the editor with written documentation that this has been received.
