Submitting a paper

How to Submit:


To  ensure anonymity in the review process, authors' names and other  identifying information should be placed on a separate title page that  includes authors' institutional affiliation and address. Authors should  remove other identifying information from the text.

All papers  should fit on one side of an 8 1/2 x 11 inch white paper, and use a  12-point font. Papers should be double spaced, including references,  tables and quotations with at least one-inch margins on all four sides.  Papers should not exceed 30 manuscript pages.

The format for  papers (including references, quotations, and tables) should follow that  of the American Sociological Association's Style Guide. Figures and  graphs in accepted manuscripts must be submitted in camera-ready  quality.

Tables and figures should be placed at the end of the  manuscript following the references. Each table/figure should be typed  on a separate page with brief descriptive titles. Placement in the text  should be indicated by a phrase, such as "Insert Table 1 about here,"  set off from the rest of the text.

​
E-Mail Submissions:

Please submit your paper as three separate files attached in one email to thewsa@live.com:

  1. A complete title page, including author information.2
  2. The title of the paper and abstract, of no more than 100 words, excluding author  
        information.
  3. The body of the paper, including references and tables.


           4.  Put "For Sociological Imagination" in the subject line.


Processing of Papers

All  submissions will be first reviewed by the Editor for general relevance.  Papers that obviously do not meet minimum journal standards will be  returned to the authors. Otherwise, copies will not be returned.

Papers  will then be forwarded for anonymous review by two or three referees,  with written evaluations submitted to the Editor for eventual return to  authors.
Papers accepted for publication are subject to stylistic editing.

Authors  of accepted papers will receive two free copies of the journal issue in  which their paper appears. Additional copies may be purchased at cost.
