SUBMISSION GUIDELINES

 

Scope. Историја / Journal of history publishes papers that make an original contribution to the historiography of Macedonia, as well as to our knowledge of Balkan history in general.  We especially encourage works focused on the history and archaeology of the region, as well as on the ethnology and anthropology, my­tho­logy and religion, art, architecture and culture of its population(s), from ancient times until today.

Finally, we publish archaeological, epigraphical, numismatical and culturological studies with a notable impact on the historical research of the space and time to which Историја / Journal of history is dedicated.

Length & language. The standard length of an article is up to 11,000 words, including notes. Ar­ti­cles longer than 16,000 words are usually not accepted for publication; all exceptions are left to the discretion of the Board of Editors. An abstract of up to 300 words should be included at the beginning of your sub­mission.

In principle, Историја / Journal of history publishes papers in all languages of global com­mu­ni­cation among scholars. Papers in south Slavic languages are also ac­cep­ted – however, if the paper is written in a south Slavic language, an extensive summary in En­glish (500-1000 words) should be included on the last page.

All text in the manuscript must be in Unicode.

Images. Except within the manuscript, drawings and grayscale photographs should also be included as separate electronic files. The image files should have a minimum resolution of 300 dpi. Wherever possible, please include sources and usage policies for the image files.

Submission & review. Submissions should be sent in both .doc(x) and .pdf format to one of the e-mail addresses listed, preferably to the Editor-in-chief or the Secretary of the Board of Edi­tors.

Once accepted for the review process by the Editors, manuscripts are sent to external peer review; the reviewers are requested to submit their evaluation with­in 30 days. If accepted for publication, the authors receive proofs and are requested to check the final version of their articles and provide the Editors with their com­ments within a week. In the absence of a response, the article is published in its cur­rent state.

Authors are kindly requested to consult and follow our house style, as des­cribed in the Style sheet below. Articles that do not follow the style sheet will not be ta­ken into consideration for publication.
