Notes for Contributors

The Canadian Journal of Sociology/Cahiers canadiens de sociologie  will charge a processing fee equivalent to the cost of an individual subscription for each manuscript submitted. This fee will be waived for those already subscribing to CJS. 


1.Preparation of manuscripts: Manuscripts in French or English should be submitted on a diskette and with one hard copy on standard size, white typing paper. Please attach a separate cover page giving authorship, institutional affiliation and an email address if available.

c. Each table should be typed on a separate page with appropriate location reference in the text of the manuscript.
d. A contributor should also supply an abstract in English or French of approximately 100-150 words each. If a manuscript is accepted for publication, the author will be asked to submit abstracts in both English and French.

b. If the author's name is used in the text, follow it with the year of publication (in the case of translations or new editions, the year of the original publication in square brackets is desirable) and pagination if necessary, e.g., Kuhn (1962: 12) observes....
c. More than one reference to the same author and year should be distinguished by letters attached to the year of publication, e.g., (Fischer, 1973a: 113).
d. A number of references in the text or in the footnotes may be enclosed within a single pair of parentheses, separated by semi-colons, e.g., (Kuhn, 1962: 12; Fischer, 1973a: 113).

Submission of a manuscript to a professional journal clearly implies commitment to publish in that journal. The competition for journal space requires a great deal of time and effort on the part of editorial readers whose main compensation for this service is the opportunity to read papers prior to publication and the gratification associated with discharge of a professional obligation. For these reasons, the Canadian Journal of Sociology/Cahiers canadiens de sociologie  regards submission of a manuscript to a professional journal while that paper is under review by another journal as unacceptable.
