Publication Guide
Human Rights and Transitional Justice Publishing Opportunities for Graduate students at the University of Minnesota
Below is a guide for graduate students interested in getting work published within human rights and transitional justice journals around the world.
Every journal has a detailed website that is a very good resource to visit to find out more information (e.g., scope, aim, history, submission information and author guidelines) and at times even read previously published articles or at least see a chart of previous/recent titles.
Each journal has specific requirements and style guidelines for authors. It is important that they be met in order to be considered for publishing. If you have any doubts after reading the requirements on a journal’s website, do not hesitate to e-mail the editor.
Deciding on a journal to submit work to is challenging seeing how nearly all journals require exclusive submission.
The University of Minnesota Wilson Library has received the following book which may be of help in the publishing endeavor:
Getting published in Political Science Journals : A guide for Authors, Editors and librarians (Washington, DC : American Political Science Association, 2001). You will find this work under call number JA86 .M37 2001
