Proposing a Special Issue

If you wish to discuss the possibility of a themed special issue please contact the Managing Editor, Greg Ryan, at [email protected].

Special Issues should normally be international in either content or authorship. The proposers should make a case why the issue would be of interest to the IJHS readership and include details of probable contributers.

If accepted, any proposal for a special issue will have one of the Academic Editors appointed as a Reporting Editor to assist the Guest Editor and ensure the quality of the issue.

Guest Editors should acknowledge that they will adhere to the IJHS regulations outlined below:

There must be a nominated editor to whom all correspondence will be directed.
All papers must be in the approved journal style. Information on this is available on the IJHS website.
The overall word length must not exceed 80,000 words (and preferably be less than 75,000) unless prior permission to exceed the limit has been obtained from the Managing Editor of IJHS
At least two referees will be required for all articles. The Reporting Editor reserves the right to request additional refereeing.
The ‘final’ version of papers should be made available to the Reporting Editor at least a month before the due submission date for comment and approval.
To assist in the final proofing along with the Reporting Editor, the Managing Editor and individual authors.
