About the journal

Migration Studies is an international refereed, online only journal dedicated to advancing scholarly understanding of the determinants, processes and outcomes of human migration in all its manifestations. It furthers this aim by publishing original scholarship from around the world.

Migration shapes human society and inspires ground-breaking research efforts across many different academic disciplines and policy areas. Migration Studies contributes to the consolidation of this field of scholarship, developing the core concepts that link different disciplinary perspectives on migration. To this end, the journal welcomes full-length articles, research notes, and reviews of books, films and other media from those working across the social sciences in all parts of the world. Priority is given to methodological, comparative and theoretical advances. The journal also publishes occasional special issues.

SUBMISSIONS

All material to be considered for publication in Migration Studies should be submitted online using the journal’s online submissions system at:http://mc.manuscriptcentral.com/migration . Once you have prepared your manuscript according to the information below, instructions on how to submit your manuscript online can be found by clicking here . Authors are encouraged to submit their manuscript using our manuscript template in Word format, available here . Please note, the template includes a title page, which must be uploaded separately, in order to keep the manuscript anonymous.

Format and style

Articles should ideally range from 7000 to 9000 words and should be prefaced by an abstract of less than 250 words. Migration Studies welcomes submissions of Articles and Book Reviews, though please follow the separate guidelines below regarding Book Reviews. Please prepare your typescript text using a word-processing package (save in .doc or .rtf format). Please also include the files for any other supplementary material to be submitted with your manuscript (this material is published online only). It is recommended that authors spell-check all files before submission.

Journal Copyediting Style Guide

All submitting authors should follow the Oxford style, and a mini style checklist is available here .

Other helpful hints are: (i) use the TAB key once for paragraph indents; (ii) where possible use Times New Roman for the text font and Symbol for any Greek and special characters; (iii) use the word processing formatting features to indicate Bold , Italic , Greek, Maths, Superscript and Subscript characters; (iv) please avoid using underline: for emphasis use bold; (v) clearly identify unusual symbols and Greek letters; (vi) where there might be confusion, differentiate between the letter O and zero, and the letters I and l and the number 1.

Papers must be submitted with a separate title page containing the information specified below. This information should not appear on the manuscript itself, which should be anonymised for the purposes of peer review.

  • Article type.
  • Manuscript title.
  • Names and affiliations of all contributing authors. It is important that authors ensure the following: (i) all names have the correct spelling and are in the correct order (first name, then family name); (ii) initials are correct. Occasionally, the distinction between surnames and forenames can be ambiguous, and this is to ensure that the authors’ full surnames and forenames are tagged correctly, for accurate indexing online.

Punctuation should be included within the quotation marks if it forms part of the quote, or remain outside if not part of the quote.

References

All references should be cited in the text using the author-date system. Authors are responsible for checking the accuracy of all references, and are asked to pay particular attention to the accuracy and correct presentation of references. Endnote: You can download the current reference style for this journal at EndNote's website . 

The bibliography should only contain sources cited in the text. Full references should be provided in accordance with the style of Migration Studies , examples are shown below.

INSTRUCTIONS FOR SUBMITTING A PROPOSAL FOR A SPECIAL ISSUE

Migration Studies is currently not inviting any Special Issue proposals, due to a high level of initial submissions. We will in future send out a call for Special Issue proposals on a yearly basis.

Figures should be saved in separate files without their captions. Files should be named according to DOS conventions, e.g. 'figure1.tif'. 

Each figure and table should be numbered and mentioned in the text. Figures and tables should be placed at the end of the manuscript following the Reference section. Each figure and table should be accompanied by an explanatory legend. The figure legends should be grouped and placed on a separate page. Figures that are to be published in black-and-white should not be submitted in colour. 

In tables, footnotes are preferable to long explanatory material in either the heading or body of the table. Such explanatory footnotes, identified by superscript letters, should be placed immediately below the table.

PERMISSIONS

Authors will also be asked to confirm that any necessary permissions have been obtained in writing from the copyright owners of any third party material included in the article. 

It is the responsibility of the author to obtain written permission for a quotation from unpublished material, or for all quotations in excess of 250 words in one extract or 500 words in total from any work still in copyright, and for the reprinting of figures, tables or poems for unpublished or copyrighted material. 

If text material (over 250 words) is to be reproduced from published sources, written permission is required from both publisher and author. For shorter quotations, it is usually sufficient to add a bibliographic credit. If illustrations or figures are to be duplicated from previously published work, written permission must be obtained both from the publisher and the author, and a credit line giving the source added to the relevant Figure Legend. The letters containing the permission for the reproduction of either text or illustrations must accompany the typescript. If you have been unable to obtain permission, please indicate this.
