Aims and Scope:
The
The series is open to interdisciplinary work drawing on anthropology and other neighbouring disciplines tackling Europeanist themes of common interest. Proposals of collective or edited books, monographs issuing from doctoral dissertations, as well as studies on European societies and cultures will be considered for publication. The series will pay special attention to Europeanist studies proper with a strong comparative and interdisciplinary component. That is, Europeanist research carried out at the interface between socio-cultural anthropology and other disciplines within the divisions of the social sciences and the humanities; and to research that incorporates a consistent comparative framework, addressing cases in Europe or beyond.
Languages of publication: English, German, French, Spanish.
Editorial Board:
The series is to be governed by a panel of up to five general editors, aiming at representing the major linguistic regions of Europe; and an editorial board comprising up to twenty five senior Europeanists affiliated with academic institutions all over Europe and elsewhere. At present these are the Editors and Board Members of the series.
Pool of Reviewers:
If you would like to serve as reader or reviewer for the Europeanist Studies series, please download, fill in and send to us the Pool of Reviewers form with details of your academic profile.
Submit a proposal:
Proposals for publication in the series are to be sent to one of the five General Editors or to the editorial office via email. Applications for publication in the series should include a title, abstract and table of contents for the planned book; as well as a short academic profile of the author/s or main editor/s.
Applications for publication that are submitted to the editorial office will be assessed by at least one of the general editors, in consultation with other members of the panel and occasionally one or more members of the editorial board, as it will be judged necessary for each initial proposal received. When a pre-proposal is admitted by the general editors of the series authors will be asked to fill in a Book Outline; and eventually to submit a PDF copy of the manuscript to be considered for publication. The final manuscript of the book submitted for publication will be assessed and reviewed anonymously by at least two scholars who have agreed to serve as peer reviewers for the series. Once the reports from anonymous readers and reviewers are produced and arrive in the editorial office, the final decision as to whether a book is to be published or not will be made by the general editors collectively. Finally, authors or editors of a specific book will take up legal responsibility for it by signing a publication agreement with LIT Verlag Münster, publisher of the series books.
Books to be published in English will follow the British-English style and spelling conventions as rendered in the Oxford English Dictionary, and more specifically for our purposes in The Oxford Style Manual (R.M.Ritter, editor and compiler, The Oxford Style Manual, Oxford University Press, 2003). Provisionally, we are also making use (with verbal permission) of Berghahn Books Book of Style UK and of their Style Sheet for contributors to edited volumes.
