About the journal
International Migration is a refereed, policy oriented journal on migration issues as analysed by demographers, economists, sociologists, political scientists and other social scientists from all parts of the world. It covers the entire field of policy relevance in international migration, giving attention not only to a breadth of topics reflective of policy concerns, but also attention to coverage of all regions of the world and to comparative policy.
The journal is published for the International Organization for Migration which was established in 1951. IOM is committed to the principle that humane and orderly migration benefits migrants and society. As an intergovernmental body, IOM acts with its partners in the international community to: assist in meeting the operational challenges of migration; advance understanding of migration issues; encourage social and economic development through migration; and work towards effective respect of the human dignity and well-being of migrants.

International Migration is edited at the University of Georgetown's Institute for the Study of International Migration (ISIM). Click here for more information about the Institute.
Instructions to Authors
All papers received from authors will be assessed initially by the Editor. Those considered suitable for publication will be sent to readers for assessment. International Migration reserves the right to first publication of all manuscripts submitted to its Editor. Manuscripts should not be submitted simultaneously to another journal (or journals) for publication. Submission of a manuscript is taken to indicate the author's commitment to publish in International Migration. Manuscripts submitted to International Migration will not be returned.
Preparation of Copy
Format
- Submission by email is encouraged (please send to Micah Bump at bumpm@georgetown.edu). If requested, one typed copy of the manuscript - double spaced on A4 or 8.5x11 size white paper - should be accompanied by a Word file on a diskette and sent to the Editor.
Title Page
- The review process at International Migration is double blind to ensure an impartial evaluation. Thus, the author's name and any identifying information should appear only on the title page of the manuscript. Do not include any identifying information in the abstract or manuscript.
- The title page should contain the title of the manuscript and the names and institutional affiliations for all authors as they want them printed in the published journal. The complete address, phone number, and email address of the corresponding author should also be included.
Article Title
- The title of the article must not be longer than 70 characters (including spaces). If the title is longer than 70 characters, we cannot guarantee that the entire title will be included on the cover.
Abstract
- An Abstract of 300 words is required. It should summarize the main findings of the paper. If you are submitting a piece for the Commentary or Data and Perspectives sections, an abstract is not required.
Text
- International Migration uses British English. The journal follows the Oxford English Dictionary.
- It is essential that all submissions conform to acceptable standards of English style and usage.
- All pages must have consecutive page numbering. Do not use other headers or footers.
- All references to monographs, articles, and other sources should be inserted at the appropriate place in the text, preferably at the end of a sentence.
- Headings should be clearly displayed. Do not underline or use bold lettering. Main headings should be centred on the page in capital letters; subheads should be centred with only the first letter of the first word capitalized. If a third-level heading is required, it should be flush left with only the first letter of the first word capitalized.
- A recurring acronym/abbreviation should be written in full the first time it is used in the text, followed by the relevant acronym in parentheses (e.g. World Health Organization (WHO)). Thereafter, it is sufficient to use only the acronym/abbreviation.
- Double quotation marks "-" should be used for all quotations, except quotations within quotations, which are presented in single inverted commas. Ex. "When I said 'immediately', I meant before the end of the week," explained the spokesperson. If a quotation is longer than five lines it may appear as a single indented block, without quotation marks. It is unnecessary to italicize a quotation.
Notes
- Notes in the text should be numbered seriatim and be confined to points of explanation or information deemed inappropriate for inclusion in the main text. A list of Notes should appear at the end of the main text and not on pages within the text. Notes are generally discouraged and should be kept to a minimum. Never use notes to cite materials.
References
- For dual authorship, provide both names; for more than two authors, use "et al." after the first author's last name. For institutional authorship, provide minimum identification.
- If there are several references to the same author and year, they should be distinguished by the letters a, b, c, etc., as in 2000a, 2000b, 2000c in both the text and the list of references at the end of the text.
- All references listed in the reference section at the end of the manuscript must be cited in the text, and all references listed in the text must be included in the reference section.
- The reference list should be headed References. All items should be listed alphabetically by author and by year of publication. Use italics for titles of books and journals. Example follows:
Faist, T.
2000 Volume and Dynamics of International Migration, Oxford University Press, Oxford.
Glick-Schiller, N., et al.
1995 "From immigration to transnational migration: theorizing transnational migration", Anthropological Quarterly, 68(1): 48-63.
Table and Figures
- Tables and Figures should be submitted at the end of the text with each Table and Figure on a separate page.
- Tables and Figures should be kept to a minimum.
- Tables should be numbered consecutively in the order in which they are cited. Each Table must be cited in the text. Insert a line indicating where the Table or Figure should be placed in the text. In layout, tables are placed as close as possible to their first citation in the text.
- Each Table and Figure should have a self-contained title.
- Tables and Figures should be provided in Microsoft Excel or Microsoft Word format, in addition to a clear laser copy. If this is impossible, the Editor should be consulted.
- Tables and Figures must not be created using colour. Use simple but easily distinguished patterns.
Proofs
- Proofs are supplied to the lead author solely for the correction of misprints; material should never be added or removed at this stage. Any corrections must be returned within 3 days.
Exclusive Licence Form

Pre-submission English-language editing
