- All submissions should be between 800 and 6,000 words. Papers submitted in the range of 800 to 2,500 words will be considered for our commentary and book review section. Essays submitted containing above 2,500 words will be considered for our articles section.
- All essays need to fall within the scope of the journal.
- Moreover, all essays should contain a short written abstract, summarising the main argument of the work. Publishable work will qualify as showing a critical engagement with existing academic literature and providing an original argument to academic discussions. All essays should contain a high degree of relevance to the field and make a compelling case for their own salience. Lastly, we do accept and encourage the submission of essays that have been submitted for grading for courses previously taken. We do not include a minimum grade requirement, however we require that work submitted be academically rigorous in content, structure and writing.
