GENERAL REQUIREMENTS

As part of the submission process, authors are required to check off their submission's compliance with all of the following items, and submissions may be returned to authors that do not adhere to these guidelines.

The manuscript has not been published or submitted for publication by other journals (there is explanation for the editor in the comments).

In connection with the rather complicated requirements for the exact design of the list of literature and other scientific elements of the article, the editorial board of the journal allows authors to be relieved of the obligation to design manuscripts, illustrations, lists of literature on the rules of the journal until the review process is completed. The main requirement for the original version of the text is the indication in the list of references of all sources and studies mentioned in the work that the reviewer has the opportunity to verify the sources of information.

The articles are accepted in electronic format Microsoft Word (.doc or .docx formats), the file with the article should be named according to author’s surname. If there are several authors, the article file should be named according to the surname of the first author. All illustrations and tables are arranged in the text after the references to them.

The text is typed according to the next parameters: Times New Roman, 12 pt size, line spacing 1.5, indention 10 mm, without word wrap. Size of margins is to be: top and bottom – 20 mm, left – 30 mm, right – 20 mm. The recommended length of the manuscript, including tables, figures and references – 8–20 typewritten pages of A4 size (16 000–40 000 symbols); news items of scientific life and book reviews – 5 typewritten pages (to 10 000 symbols). All pages should be numbered (page numbering should be from the title page).

ARTICLE DESIGN

Title page

The title page should include the following structural elements:

1. UDC (universaldecimalclassification);

2. Titlename

Maximum title length is 10–12 words. Long title names as well as short title names are difficult to perceive.

The title name should be informative and concise, it should correspond to the scientific style of the text, contain keywords, that reflect the research topic (scope), content of the work. The title name should be clear for the reader and easy to search by search systems. Abbreviationsandformulasshouldnotbeenused.

3. Initials and surname of the author(s).

4. Affiliation:

The name of organization where the author works (if the author worked and conducted research in several organizations, it is preferable to specify these organizations), address, city and country. Each organization name should be specified in a new line. The counting number in superscript should be written before the organization name and after the author’s surname, that helps to relate the author with the organization.

5. The abstract should be informative (without general words, original, structured), it should cover principle article content and research results.

6. Keywords:

Keywords are a semantic kernel of the article, they are main concepts and categories that describe the research issues. Key words help the readers to search the articles in electronic databases, so the key words should reflect the discipline (i. e. the field of scientific research), subject, goal and object of research.

Keywords may be either separate words or phrases (singular number, Nominative case). It is suggested 5–7 key words in Russian and English languages, at most 3 key words in the key phrase.

7. Acknowledgements:

In this section the author acknowledges colleagues who contribute to the research or express criticism to the article. Before acknowledge someone, the author should obtain the consent from the person whom the author wants to show appreciation.

Organizations and funds should be acknowledged for sponsorship, i.e. specify grants, contracts, etc., that helped in conducting research.

8. Full information about the author(s): full name, science degree, academic status, position, subdivision (department, faculty, laboratory, etc.), ORCID (it is necessary to register on https://orcid.org), e-mail, mobile phone number. It is necessary to point out the corresponding author. Postgraduate students and students should specify full name, science degree and academic status of the scientific advisor.

Items 2–8 should follow in the same order in English (see example of arrangement):

In the articles published in the section «Scientific events»the article title should be presented in Russian and English languages; information about author(s) (full name, science degree, academic status, position, place of work, organization address, e-mail, corresponding author phone number) should also be written in Russian and English languages.

STRUCTURE OF THE ARTICLE

The article should consist of the following structural parts that are written boldface type.

1. Introduction

Includes: urgency of research, correspondent literature review, stated problem, research aims and objectives.

2. Researchmethodology/theoreticalframework

The part describes research methods and methodology.

3. Resultsanddiscussion

The part covers actual results of the research (texts, tables, graphs, diagrams, formulas, pictures, images), interpretation of the results, including their relevance to research hypothesis, as well as limitations of the research and generalization of the results, suggestion on practical application and further research directions.

4. Conclusion

The part covers section summary. Duplication of wording from the sections should be avoided in the summary. The part can be included into the previous one.

LIST OF BIBLIOGRAPHICAL REFERENCES (in source language):

a) The list includes only works that have been used during preparation of the article and have references in the text.

b) References to the bibliographic sources should be arranged in accordance with their citation (mentioning) – a counting number of the reference and the citied page in the text should be written in square brackets (e.g. [1,3]).

Each source should have its counting number in the list.

– articles from the journals, collections, materials and conferences, etc.:

Example: 4. Raijman R., Ophir A. The Economic Integration of Latin Americans in Israel. Can. Ethn. Stud. 2014. Vol. 46, No. 3. P. 77–102. DOI: 10.1353/ces.2014.0036.

References (in English):

a) the list of bibliographic references should be also written in English language;

b) number of sources specified in the list of bibliographic references should coincide with References;

c) references should include data from English-language metadata of the article that are arranged as one block on the title page or at the end of the article: author’s full name (Latin), article title in English; name of a journal (Latin) – transliterate the name if there is no English-language name; imprint (year, volume, page numbers (at…through)); article language, if it is not published in English (e.g. (in Russian)); DOI of the article (if any) or URL if there is no DOI, access to the article (if any);
