Selection process for texts

The Cahiers Jean Moulin publishes an annual issue that includes either a special dossier proposed by authors who submit a project to the editorial board, or articles submitted in response to a call for contributions issued by the journal, as well as bibliographical reviews and interviews. The journal also encourages spontaneous submissions, as long as they are in line with its editorial project.

Proposals for articles should be sent to the following email addresses

chrystelle.gazeau@univ-lyon3.fr

guillaume.richard@u-paris.fr

Each article is peer-reviewed (on a double blind basis) by specialists in the field. The editorial committee makes the final decision of publication or rejection and notifies the author (or the person responsible for the dossier). Acceptance may be conditional on formal or substantive corrections. The author must then submit a corrected version of the article, reviewed by the editorial committee. Article proposals must be in line with the editorial line of the journal. In the case of an article proposal that is not in line with the editorial line of the journal, the editorial committee can reject it without having it reviewed.

Before being peer-reviewed, the articles are analyzed by means of an anti-plagiarism software (see Scientific integrity charter).

Articles must be accompanied (except for book reviews) by

- a list of key words in French and English (without capitalization, except for proper names or those requiring capitalization) ;

- an abstract (about 10 lines) in French and English.
