CJLS Submission Guidelines
Articles: Authors interested in
publishing an article in the Canadian Journal of Law and Society should
submit an electronic version of their manuscript. The text should not
exceed 30 pages (8,000 words), double-spaced, including notes and
appendices, and should present an abstract. In order to facilitate
double-blind peer review, the manuscript needs to be anonymized. For citation purposes, the Journal has adopted the Canadian Guide to
Uniform Legal Citation (7th edition), published by Carswell, for
legislation and case law, and the Chicago Manual of Style (16th
edition), published by University of Chicago Press, for other types of sources.
Each manuscript is first read by the Editor to determine its
admissibility. It is then submitted anonymously to at least three
external reviewers, from different disciplines, whose reports are taken
into consideration by the Editor in the decision and the modifications
eventually asked for. The referees' reports, which also remain
anonymous, are transmitted to the author together with the editorial
decision. Once the manuscript is accepted, the author should send to the
Journal the final version of the article, following the editorial
guidelines. The Journal does not evaluate or publish articles that have
been submitted concurrently to other journals or have already been
published.
