About the journal
Aims & Scope
Contemporary British History offers innovative new research on any aspect of British history - foreign, Commonwealth, political, social, cultural or economic - dealing with the period since the First World War. The editors welcome work which involves cross-disciplinary insights, as the journal seeks to reflect the work of all those interested in the recent past in Britain, whatever their subject specialism. Work which places contemporary Britain within a comparative (whether historical or international) context is also encouraged. In addition to articles, the journal regularly features interviews and profiles, archive reports, and a substantial review section.

Instructions to Authors
Submission
Contemporary British History welcomes submissions that deal with British History since the First World War. The editors invite comparative and cross-disciplinary viewpoints, as well as articles devoted to examining social, political, economic and cultural issues that have affected Britain, including its Empire, Commonwealth and foreign relations, in the twentieth and twenty-first centuries. Contemporary British History encourages innovative approaches to this subject matter, and is keen to publish articles that invigorate the debates associated with modern Britain. Contemporary British History particularly welcomes submissions from scholars in the early stages of their careers. Articles submitted should be original contributions and should not be under consideration for any other publication at the same time. If another version of the article is under consideration for any other publication at the same time, or has been, or will be published elsewhere, authors should clearly indicate this at the time of submission.
Authors should aim to keep their articles at around 8,000, and no more than 10,000, words (including notes and references). The article should be accompanied by an indented and italicised abstract of around 100 words, which should describe the main arguments and conclusions of the article, and a list of 5-6 key words. On a separate cover sheet, the following should be included: details of the author's institutional affiliation, full address and contact information; the exact length of the article; brief (2-3) line biographical description; any acknowledgements.
Each manuscript should be sent electronically to gary.haines@virgin.net
Books for review should be sent to: James McKay Dept. of Modern History University of Birmingham Edgbaston Birmingham B15 2TT Email: J.mckay690@btinternet.com

Referencing
Contemporary British History follows the Chicago Humanities referencing system. More detailed instructions can be found by clicking here (www.tandf.co.uk/journals/pdf/ChicagoStyleGuideHumanities_British.pdf).
Style
- In quotations the punctuation, capitalisation and spelling of the original should be followed. Use single quotation marks, with double quotation marks only for quotations within quotations. Quotations of 50 words or longer should be indented as a separate block of text without quotation marks.
- Numbers should be written in full, 10 and over in digits, except in the case of percentages, where numbers should always be used (and per cent should always be spelt out). Numbers over 1,000 should be written with a comma separating every set of three numerals. Eg. 1,000,000
- Dates should be given in full (25 January 1977), though months should be abbreviated in the notes. Similarly give 'the twentieth century', NOT 'the 20th Century'.
- Do not use full points in abbreviations like PhD, USA, UK.
- Contractions ending with the same letter as the original word do not take terminal full stops (for example Mr, Dr, Ltd). However, abbreviations where the last letter of the word is not included do take a terminal full stop (for example ed., p.). Abbreviations of units of measurement do not take a final full stop (for example mm, kg, cm).
- Do not use apostrophes in, for example, the 1970s, or in straight-forward plurals (MPs, CFCs).
- Italics should be used for titles and publications (except the Bible and the Koran), plays, films, radio and television programmes, major musical works, paintings or sculptures, Latin genera, mathematical and statistical symbols, non-English words and phrases, and legal cases.
- Table 1 and Figure 1 should be used when referring to tables and figures in the text.
- Appendices come after references.
- Superscript number for Notes in text should follow punctuation.
- Displayed quote ends with full point. (Smith, 1999, p.2)
