About the journal
|
|
A groundbreaking forum for intellectual debate, IJURR is at the forefront of urban and regional research. With a cutting edge approach to linking theoretical development and empirical research, and a consistent demand for quality, IJURR encompasses key material from an unparalleled range of critical, comparative and geographic perspectives. Embracing a multidisciplinary approach to the field, IJURR is essential reading for social scientists with a concern for the complex, changing roles and futures of cities and regions.
Debates and Developments Complementary to the articles section, the Debates and Developments portion incorporates shorter, sometimes contentious papers on recent developments in the field - policy, practice and theory - alongside coverage of conferences, mobilizations and reports. The aim is to inform, communicate ideas and stimulate debate across a range of subjects and geographic areas.
Book Reviews IJURRs review section provides an informed, critical overview of the most important new publications and relevant, less obvious books that should not be overlooked. Spanning a wide subject and geographic area, this section is a reliable and valuable resource for researchers.

Style and convention
Presentation
The typescript should be prepared on good quality A4 or American Quarto paper, double-spaced and with generous margins at head, foot and left- and right-hand margins. The top copy should be submitted together with three further copies and an abstract of approximately 200 words, together with a disk copy. Authorship, contact addresses and any acknowledgements should be submitted on a detachable page as the refereeing process is strictly anonymous. The article length should not exceed 8000 words including references.
Illustrations Any maps, diagrams and figures should be submitted in the form of completed artwork suitable for reproduction. .
Black and white figures should be supplied on separate sheets at the end of the manuscript and if supplied on disk should not be embedded within the article. Lines should be clean and clear, tints and complex shading should be avoided. Any labels and keys must be legible when reproduced. Figures supplied on disk must be accompanied by a paper copy and should either be originated in a drawing package and saved as an EPS or TIF file, or produced in Excel. Line art should be supplied to at least 600dpi halftones to 300dpi at actual size. Figures should not be embedded into a word file as this lowers the resolution. Contributors will be asked to resupply their artwork if figures don't meet these specifications.
Where artwork is being supplied, please bear in mind that illustrations cannot be reproduced at more than the size of the text area of the journal page, i.e. 134 x 204mm. All illustrations should be drawn for the same reduction, ideally 3:2. Lettering should be of draughtsman standard; please bear the reduction factor in mind in both lettering and weight of line.
Good quality black and white photographs will be considered for inclusion where they add substantially to the argument, to a maximum of three per article. These can be supplied electronically as TIF files scanned to at least 300dpi if the contributor is familiar with scanning equipment. If not, prints should be supplied.
Colour figures can be provided for use in the online version. However, contributors must remember that these will appear in the printed version in black and white. Any colours used should therefore be distinguishable from each other in the greyscale format, especially in pie charts and bar charts.
It is the contributor¡¯s responsibility to clear any necessary copyright permissions, to pay any reproduction fees charged by the copyright owner, and to provide a list of captions and (where relevant) credit lines.
A list of captions to the illustrations should be supplied separately from the text, and the position of the illustrations should be clearly indicated in the text. Further details on electronic artwork can be found at
http://www.blackwellpublishing.com/authors/digill.asp
Tables Tables should be typed on separate sheets from the text, and their position in the text indicated.
References in text to figures and table should be in the form `see Table 4¡¯, `as in Figure 6¡¯.
Style Please follow these notes:
¡¤ Use `ize¡¯, not `ise¡¯ where there is an alternative, e.g. realize, recognize; and in general follow the first variant given by the Shorter Oxford English Dictionary; NB analyse, advertise, exercise.
¡¤ Dates: please use these forms: 16 March 1999; the 1980s; the twenty-first century; a nineteenth-century system; c. 2000.
¡¤ Numbers: all numbers under 10 should be spelled out except where attaching to a unit of quantity (e.g. 10 km, 3 kg), or where the context makes this awkward (e.g. use full forms at the beginning of a sentence). Please use the form 36%, 3% for percentages. Elide numerals where possible, e.g. 1923¨C4, 40¨C5; but 1917¨C18, 304¨C15.
¡¤ Avoid excessive capitalization. For titles of books and articles, capitals should be used only for the initial letter of the first word and for proper names/titles. For the titles of journals and series, the initial letters of all main words should be capitalized. (See also section on references below.)
¡¤ Use SI units.
¡¤ Use italics for emphasis very sparingly.
¡¤ Abbreviations: abbreviations such as UN, UNESCO, BBC should be typed without full points; so should contractions (where the last letter of the abbreviation is the last letter of the word), such as Mr, Dr, St, etc. Other abbreviations (e.g. no., ed., etc.) retain the full point.
¡¤ Headings: In articles using various levels of subheading, please indicate the level of heading by writing A, B, C beside each heading in the margin. No numbering is required. Please avoid using more than three levels of subheading.
¡¤ Quotations of more than about 60 words should be set out from the text with space above and below.
¡¤ Footnotes: Footnotes appear on the page in the journal. Please number them consecutively throughout the article and type them at the end of the manuscript, with reference numbers in square brackets in the text. Please keep footnotes to a reasonable minimum.
References
References should follow the Harvard system. In the text, references should be indicated by giving the author¡¯s name and the year of publication, with page references where necessary. Multiple textual references should be indicated in chronological order. For example:
¡ As Castells (1997: 60) has clarified...
¡ where urban-rural interaction has been most intensive (Ginsburg, 1990; McGee, 1991; Zhou, 1991; Lin, 1997a).
References should be listed in full at the end of the article in alphabetical order and in the following form:
(a) Book (NB please give publisher and place)
Lef¨¨vre, H. (1974) La production de l¡¯espace. Anthropos, Paris.
(b) Journal article
Logan, J.R., R.D. Alba and T.L. McNulty (1994) Ethnic economies in metropolitan regions: Miami and beyond. Social Forces 72.3, 691¡ª74.

(d) Book in a series
Bunge, W. (1985) Theoretical geography. 2nd edition, Lund Studies in Geography 1, Gleerup, Lund.
Please note:
¡¤ If several items by the same author(s) and from the same year are cited, a, b, c, etc. should be added to the year of publication (1972a; 1972b; etc.).
¡¤ The use of the phrase et al. is required in the text (e.g. Smith et al., 1990), but not in the list of references where the names of ALL authors should be given.
¡¤ English language translations of titles should follow the romanized (e.g. pinyin) and be set in square brackets.
¡¤ Journal titles should not be abbreviated.
¡¤ Places of publication may be given in the original language of publication, e.g. Wien, Torino.
Submission of articles on disk ¡¤ Material should be submitted on 3.5¡± floppy disks or CD Rom, using software for Windows (please note that disks must be PC formatted). A good quality hard copy printout, double-spaced throughout and with good margins, must be supplied with the disk, along with details of the software used. ¡¤ Tabular or other complex matter may be supplied in a separate file on disk. The positioning of tables and figures should be indicated on the hard copy. ¡¤ High resolution figures (to at least 300dpi or 800 dpi, TIF or EPS format, as specified above) should be supplied on CD or Zip disk. A good quality hard copy printout should be supplied. ¡¤ Please use software codes for italics and accents only ¡ª not for any other typesetting code or formatting. Accents should be clearly indicated on the hard copy. Hard carriage returns should be used only to indicate a new paragraph or the beginning/end of headings or sections, never at the end of every line. Please do not justify the text.
Proofs Proofs will be supplied only once, in the form of PDF proofs sent by email, except in exceptional circumstances, when paper proofs can be supplied. Please remember that: (a) Proof corrections are disproportionately expensive and should be avoided unless absolutely essential. (b) If you return proofs even a few days after the date stipulated, it may be too late to include corrections in the final version of the journal.
Copyright
Authors must obtain permission to reproduce copyright maps and diagrams. Full information of work cited ¡ª author, date, publisher and page references ¡ª should be given for all maps, diagrams and figures. Single passages of quoted prose should not normally exceed 250 words, or scattered passages more than 400 words, from any work. UK copyright extends to 50 years after the death of the author or 50 years after the publication of a scholarly edition.
Copyright Assignment Form Authors will be required to assign copyright in their paper to the International Journal of Urban and Regional Research. Copyright assignment is a condition of publication and papers will not be passed to the publisher for production unless copyright has been assigned. To assist authors an appropriate copyright assignment form will be supplied by the editorial office. Alternatively, authors may like to download a copy of the form here http://www.blackwellpublishing.com/pdf/IJURR_CAF.pdf (Government employees in both the US and the UK need to complete the Author Warranty sections, although copyright in such cases does not need to be assigned.)
The journal was founded under the auspices of the ISA research committee on the sociology of regional and urban development.
