Articles
The journal welcomes original research articles focusing on contemporary post-War Europe and European affairs from a variety of disciplinary and multi-disciplinary perspectives within the social sciences, history, law, cultural studies and the humanities. Articles should be 4000–6000 words in length (inclusive of references, notes, tables and figures).
Research Notes
Research Notes are concise compositions of 2000–3000 words in length (inclusive of references, notes, tables and figures). They should address an important research problem or question within the focus of the journal, advancing an innovative theoretical or methodological approach, or a practitioner analysis of a contemporary policy issue or problem. Research Notes may also be used to share preliminary findings or an overview of data generated so far.
Review Essays
Review Essays may be a review of a single recently published book, of a number of recent contributions to a particular debate, or may be a broader ‘state-of-the-art’ survey of a contemporary theme or debate. State-of-the-art surveys should aim to outline for readers the significance of developments in the field of European studies of which they may no be aware. Review essays should typically address thematic areas covered by ANZJES.
Reviews Essays should be no more than:
- 1000 words in length (inclusive of references, notes, tables and figures) for single or double book reviews;
- 2000 words in length (inclusive of references, notes, tables and figures) for reviews of three or more recently published books on a particular topic;
- 4000 words in length (inclusive of references, notes, tables and figures) for state-of-the-art surveys.
