Monographic Volumes

In order to apply for the publication of a monographic volume in ELiEs, a draft of the planned volume must be sent to the editors of the journal, which will be evaluated by the management and either by two members of the scientific committee or by specialists chosen by these members.

Proposals should include the following information:

  1. Title
  2. General content of the volume (3 to 4 pages) including:

                2.1 The thematic proposal (theory, methodology, type of data)

                2.2 A brief literature review: justification and relevance of the proposal.

                2.3 The contribution it makes to the area of study in question.

  1. Index of articles and authors
  2. Brief CVs of guest editors
  3. Bibliography

The guest editors will be free to choose the number of contributions that make up the issue. If the volume proposal is accepted by the scientific committee, the editors commit themselves to following the ELIES editing guidelines, as well as the blind peer review process, which can both be found here (hyperlink). Due to the large number of submissions received in ELiEs, the response to the proposal may be delayed. We will, of course, contact the editors as soon as possible. 

Thematic volumes are published in Spring and Autumn. A maximum of two volumes are published per year. For the spring volume, all articles making up the volume (including the introduction) must be submitted by 30 April at the latest, for the autumn volume, by 30 September at the latest.

ELiEs reserves the right not to publish volumes that do not conform to these guidelines.
