Requirements for Articles Submitted to the Editorial Office
Materials submitted to the editorial office must be prepared on a computer using MS Word, printed on one side of A4 paper, and signed by the author(s). The length of materials considered as results of dissertation research must be from 15,000 to 30,000 characters (including spaces), while other materials should not exceed 20,000 characters (one journal page is approximately 5,000 characters). Materials are published in Russian or Belarusian. The article must indicate the title in Russian and English as well as the UDC (Universal Decimal Classification index).
In addition to printed materials, as well as photographs, schemes and diagrams (if any), electronic copies must be provided to the editorial office (sent by email jb@justbel.info for the journal “Justice of Belarus”, arh@justbel.info for the journal “Archives and Records Management”).
A separate file accompanying the material must include complete information about the author (for co-authorship — for each author separately): surname, first name, patronymic in Russian (Belarusian) and English, place of employment, position held, academic degree and/or title, contact information for feedback (residential address, telephone number, email address to be published in the journal for communication between readers and the author), as well as the author’s portrait photograph (preferred formats — jpeg or tif, minimum size — 2,000 pixels on the long side).
A review (not from the academic supervisor) must be attached to the article.
The text of the article must be structured (abstract, introduction, main body, conclusion). The introduction should contain a brief literature review on the issue under consideration and identify previously unresolved questions; the main body should provide a detailed discussion of the issues addressed; the conclusion should contain clearly formulated findings.
Articles submitted for publication in the journals “Justice of Belarus” and “Archives and Records Management” must not have been published previously and, at the time of submission, must not be under consideration by other journals.
