General Keyboarding Instructions

Document margins. Left, right, top, and bottom margins should be 2.54 cm / 1 inch.

Line Spacing. Set the line spacing for your file to “double” for all content, including reference entries and text extracts. Do not insert extra spaces between paragraphs.

Font/Typeface. Use Times New Roman 12-point size font, with the exception of footnote text, which should be Times New Roman 10-point font. Extracts, epigraphs, and headings should all appear in the manuscript with the same font and point size. In rare cases, you may need to use a different font to visually set apart text. If so, please provide an example and explanation of your intention.

Letterspacing. Only use one space between sentences, not two.

Indents. Please use tabs, not the spacebar, when indenting.

Quotes. Less than 40 words in an “in line quote.”

Place direct quotations that are 40 words, or longer, in a free-standing block of typewritten lines, and omit quotation marks. Start the quotation on a new line, indented 1/2 inch [2.54 cm] from the left margin, i.e., in the same place you would begin a new paragraph. Type the entire quotation on the new margin, and indent the first line of any subsequent paragraph within the quotation 1/2 inch from the new margin. Maintain double-spacing throughout. The parenthetical citation should come after the closing punctuation mark. (Paiz et al., 2013, Long quotations, para. 1)

To make a block quote create a new paragraph, maintain double spacing, highlight the quote and indent using the Microsoft Word “increase indent” tool bar symbol .

Tables. Use Microsoft Word’s Insert Table function when you create tables. Using spaces or tabs in your table will create problems when the table is typeset and may result in errors.

FootnotesConjunctures: Capital, Culture and Society does not encourage the use of footnotes, but if explanatory notes are necessary please use endnotes using Arabic numerals. 

Sections and Sub-sections

Please use the same font size in bold for section headline and a non-bold, italicised format for sub-sections, if any.
