Instructions to authors

The articles must not exceed 40,000 characters (spaces included), notes and bibliography are not included in the character count.

Reports must not exceed 10,000 characters (including spaces), notes, abstract and bibliography are included in the character count.

Languages accepted: French, English.

Articles must be accompanied by:

− A biography (for each of the authors) between 5 to 10 lines (first and last names of the author (s), professional status/titles, institutional affiliations, research themes, latest publications, e-mail address).

− Abstracts in French and English.

1 / General rules

Italics: Italicize words in foreign languages in relation to the language used. For example: op. cit., ibid., cf., a priori, a posteriori, etc.

No use of bold (with the exception of section titles) nor capitals (with the exception of proper names, institutions, book titles in English, etc.).

American conventions regarding punctuation are to be employed: double quotation marks, period before quotation marks, footnote at the very end of a sentence. For example: “This is how American people, as they say, ‘do it.’”

Authors may opt for British English or American spelling but the convention employed must be used in a consistent way. For example: formalised and formalized are both acceptable, as are color and colour.

Footnotes are to be used to cite sources instead of in-text citations.

Numbers: Up to ten, please spell out the number (for example, nine visitors), beyond ten, use numbers (for example: 100,000 inhabitants).

Dates: Centuries should be in numbers: 19th century. Form the plural of decades without an apostrophe. For example: the 1960s.

For persons who are deceased, add birth and death date in parenthesis. For example: Michel Foucault (1926‑1984).

2 / Body of the text

The text must be entered in the Microsoft Word software, using Times New Roman, size 12, line spacing 1.5, without any special formatting, except titles, headings, captions and paragraph breaks.

3 / Quotations

Quotations of less than 3 lines will be inserted into the text and placed between quotation marks.

Quotes of more than 3 lines will be indented to the left and right, size 10 (not 12), and without quotation marks.

4 / References

Bibliographic references and references in footnotes are to be formatted according to the same model, although references in footnotes will include a page number.

Bibliographical references will also be grouped in alphabetical order (according to author names) and will appear at the end of the article in a section titled “Bibliography.”

Please use the following models:

For a book: First name Last name, Title, City of publishing, Publishing house, year of publication, p. xx.

For a collective work: First name Last name and First name Last name of dir./coord./eds./etc., Title, City of publishing, Publishing house, year of publication, page, or First name Last name et al., Title, City of publishing, Publishing house, year of publication, p. xx.

For a chapter of a collective work: First name Last name, “Chapter Title,” in First name Last name, (dir./coord./eds./etc.), Book Title, City of publishing, Publishing house, year of publication, p. xx.

For a journal article: First Name Last Name, “Article Title,” Journal Title, Vol./N °, Date of Publication, p. xx.

For electronic reference: the following text will be inserted at the end of the reference, with the corresponding link: [online] [url], accessed on 01/01/21.

5 / Illustrations, charts and tables

Images accompanying the text should be scanned in high resolution (300 dpi minimum) in JPEG, PNG or TIFF formats. Text files should be distinct from graphic files.

Horizontal images (in landscape mode) are preferred as they are more consistent with page layout constraints. If vertical images are unavoidable, please consider pairing the image with another vertical image.

The author must verify that the images or figures of which he is not the author are free of rights.

Otherwise, the author must request permission to publish from the owner of the image or figure before submitting it to the magazine.

Illustrations, charts and tables must be captioned in the following manner:

− The title of the illustrations should be preceded by the letters “Figure [no.]” or “Table [no.]” and will appear above the illustration.

− The image caption and credits (source, copyright, etc.) will appear under the illustration on two separate lines.
