    Excel   file   with   the   graph.   Each   table   should   have   a   title   preceding   it.   Please   use   the   table   below   as   a  
    model.

    References  
    The  style  should  be  uniform  throughout  the  work.  Note  that  he  author’s/authors’  first  name  must  
    be  spelled  in  full.  Examples  of  entries:

    Citations  
    In-­‐text  citations  should  use  the  author–date  style  and  be  inserted  into  text  prior  to  punctuation.  In  
    indented   block   quotes,   however,   the   author–date   citation   follows   end   punctuation.   The   page  
    number  may  be  included  after  a  colon,  if  necessary:  
    For  years,  most  textbooks  referred  to  the  five  stages  of  economic  integration  (Jessop  1995b).  
    According  to  Higgins,  preventative  medicine  is  ‘cost  effective’  (2005:  56),  but  not  efficient.  
    Berkley  (2009:  43)  argued  that  ‘[g]lobal  climate  change  has  caused  billions  of  pounds  of  damage.’    
     

    Abbreviations,  Contractions  and  Acronyms  

    Use  full  points:  


    • If  an  abbreviation  does  not  end  with  the  final  letter  of  the  word:  ed.,  vol.,  no.,  Rev.  
    • After  initials  in  a  name:  R.  A.  Butler  (and  leave  a  space  between  initials)  
     
    Do  not  use  full  points:  
    • If  a  contraction  ends  with  the  final  letter  of  the  word:  Dr,  Mr,  Mrs,  St,  eds,  edn  
    • In  metric  units  of  measurement:  cm,  kg  
    • In  acronyms,  such  as  initials  of  organizations  or  associations:  RAC,  BBC,  USA  
     
     
    Punctuation  

    Dashes:  Use  an  ‘en’  rule  with  a  space  on  either  side  –  to  be  typed  thus.  

    Ellipses:    
    Use  three  dots  with  spaces  on  either  side  ...  even  if  a  sentence  starts  or  ends  with  one.    
    •
    Indicate  the  elision  of  text  from  within  a  quote  like  this  [...]  with  remaining  text  continuing.  
    •
    If  a  full  stop  follows  the  elision  of  text,  indicate  like  this  [...].  
    •
     
    Hyphens:  Maintain  consistency  throughout  the  manuscript  for  all  key  terms.  

    • Use   hyphens   for   compound   nouns   (make-­‐up),   adjectival   phrases   (middle-­‐class  


    neighbourhoods),  between  repeated  vowels  (co-­‐operate)  
    • Do   not   use   hyphens   for   established   compound   nouns   (soundtrack,   breakdown),   between   an  
    adverb   and   adjective   if   the   adverb   ends   in   ‘ly’   (widely   known),   between   two   vowels   that  
    don’t  clash  (reintroduce),  in  words  with  the  ‘re-­‐‘  prefix  that  don’t  clash  (rewrite,  rethink)  

    Commas:  Do  not  use  serial  commas  in  lists:  We  bought  apples,  oranges  and  pears.  

    Numbers  
    Spans  of  numbers:  
    • Use  the  fewest  number  of  numerals:  pp.  23–4,  1984–5  
    3  

    • In  the  teens,  the  ‘1’  is  always  repeated:  12–13,  217–19  


    • In  titles  and  headings,  put  numbers  in  full:  1931–1993  
     
    Quotations    
    Use   single   quotation   marks.   Place   the   punctuation   after   the   quotation   mark   if   it   is   not   part   of   the  
    original  quote.  For  quotes  inside  of  quotes,  use  double  quotation  marks.    

    Use   square   brackets   for   an   editor’s   interpolation   (‘in   many   respects   [hers   is   an]   exemplary  
    biography’).    

    For   quotations   in   prose   that   exceed   five   lines,   indent   the   entire   quote   and   do   not   use   quotation  
    marks.  

    Italics  
    Use  italics:  
    • For  emphasis  (do  not  use  bold  or  underlining)  
    • For  key  terms  or  coined  words
