Submissions
Submission of a manuscript to Junctures implies that the work is an original article, has not been published before and is not under consideration for publication elsewhere.
All submissions must be emailed as an attachment in RTF format to junctures@tekotago.ac.nz.
Please use the subject line: SUBMISSION [your name].
Authors should specify the issue for which they are submitting, and on a separate cover page provide their name, surname, academic affiliations, a 100 word abstract, and a short biography (no more than 80 words).
Style
We use the Chicago referencing style with endnotes. For more information on this style, please refer to the Chicago Manual of Style. Manuscripts will not be considered if they do not follow consistant and exacting referencing conventions.
Some style specifics:
- English spelling
- Double quotation marks (with single inside quotes)
- Punctuation inside of quotation marks
- Endnote markers outside of quotation marks
- 10 or 12 point font, double spaced
Endnotes
Do not use automatic (or embedded) endnotes or footnotes. Place the number of the endnote after the text in brackets and add the endnote to the bottom of the article. Eg. The text goes here and the endnote reference comes after. [1]
Endnotes should be in the same font and size as the rest of the text.
Illustrations
Images should initially be sent as low-resolution JPG files with full caption details on a separate sheet. Authors should indicate the placement of images in the document. These should be labelled with the contributor's name and numbered in the in the order in which they appear eg. "jones1.tif" "jones2.tif" When the article is accepted for publication, authors will be contacted to provide high resolution images. It is the responsibility of the author to obtain copyright permissions for the use of any images.
