Instructions to Authors
The aim of the Journal is to provide a medium for the publication of original papers covering the entire span of sociological thought and research. The Editor is particularly keen to publish work on current developments in research and analysis.
All contributions, correspondence and books for review should be addressed to The British Journal of Sociology, London School of Economics, Houghton Street, London WC2A 2AE. (Tel. 020-7955-7283; Fax. 020-7955-6311; E.mail: bjs@lse.ac.uk). Papers submitted for publication are normally read by at least two assessors as well as by one of the Editors. The Editor’s decision will be final. A decision on an article will usually be sent to authors within four months of submission, however, whilst every effort will be made to follow this practice, it should be understood that there may be circumstances where this will be difficult to guarantee in all cases. Articles submitted to the Journal must not be under consideration by any other journal.
Guidelines for Articles:
1. Manuscripts should normally be approximately 8,000 words in length (including the Notes/Bibliography section).
2. Research notes/commentaries making contemporary contributions to the Journal’s fields of interest will also be considered by the Editors but these should not be longer than 2,500 words.
3. Review essays: Discursive book review essays, situated within current debates. These will be commissioned and will normally be between 4-6000 words. They will be peer reviewed and processed in the normal way. An abstract of 200 words should be included and the following guidelines for articles should be followed for layout purposes.

Where more than one author is involved the lead author, for contact purposes, should be clearly indicated.
6. Abstracts: An abstract of up to 300 words, typed on a separate sheet, giving a concise statement of the intention, results and conclusions of the paper should be attached to the article.

Spelling practices should be consistent throughout the article: acknowledgment (not acknowledgement); judgment etc.; organize, recognize etc. BUT analyse not analyze; focusing, focused; co-operation; in so far as (four words), inasmuch as (two words), none the less (three words), nevertheless (one word).
10. Abbreviations: full stops should follow abbreviations e.g. pp., p., ed. (but eds), vol. ( but vols), no. ( but nos), and full stops should not be used for Dr, Mr or in acronyms such as NATO or UN, or well-known abbreviations, BBC, USA, MP.

They should be consecutively numbered using Roman numerals (Table I, Table II etc.) and tables should contain the minimal number of lines with no boxes. Please refer to editions of the Journal for sample layouts. An electronic version of all tables and figures must be submitted.

where several references are cited together in the text they may be placed in alphabetical or chronological order or in order of importance and separated by semi-colons. However, whichever style is adopted this should be applied consistently throughout the article.
where there are four or more authors for a work the first name should be used, followed by et al.: (‘Smith et al. 1969: 235?)?/P>
for mention of first editions and translations within the text, authors should cite the edition to which they are referring followed by the original publication date placed in square brackets e.g. (Marx 1970[1844]: 333).
op.cit., ibid., idem. etc. should not be used ?the author, date and page reference should be cited in full.
(b) The form for the Bibliography section
all material relating to references contained in the text should be placed in a separate Bibliography section, printed in double-line spacing, after the Notes.
