Particularly for survey-based articles full details should be given, i.e. type and size of sample, data instruments used including, for mailed surveys, the final percentage response and the treatment of bias.
3. Title A title, ideally, of not more than eight words in length should be provided.
4. Autobiographical note A brief autobiographical note should be supplied including full name, appointment, name of organization and e-mail address.

7. References References to other publications should be complete and in Harvard style. They should contain full bibliographical details and journal titles should not be abbreviated. For multiple citations in the same year use a, b, c immediately following the year of publication. References should be shown within the text by giving the author's last name followed by a comma and year of publication all in round brackets, e.g. (Fox, 1994). At the end of the article should be a reference list in alphabetical order as follows
(a) for books surname, initials and year of publication, title, publisher, place of publication, e.g.Casson, M. (1979), Alternatives to the Multinational Enterprise, Macmillan, London.
(b) for chapter in edited book surname, initials and year, "title", editor's surname, initials, title, publisher, place, pages, e.g.Bessley, M. and Wilson, P.

Notes/Endnotes should be used only if absolutely necessary. They should, however, always be used for citing Web sites. They should be identified in the text by consecutive numbers enclosed in square brackets and listed at the end of the article. Please then provide full Web site addresses in the end list.
8. Figures, charts and diagrams should be kept to a minimum. They should be provided both electronically and as good quality originals. They must be black and white with minimum shading and numbered consecutively using arabic numerals.
Artwork should be either copied or pasted from the origination software into a blank Microsoft Word document, or saved and imported into a blank Microsoft Word document. Artwork created in MS Powerpoint is also acceptable. Artwork may be submitted in the following standard image formats: .eps - Postscript, .pdf - Adobe Acrobat portable document, .ai - Adobe Acrobat portable document, .wmf - Windows Metafile. If it is not possible to supply graphics in the formats listed above, authors should ensure that figures supplied as .tif, .gif, .jpeg, .bmp, .pcx, .pic, .pct are supplied as files of at least 300 dpi and at least 10cm wide.
In the text the position of a figure should be shown by typing on a separate line the words "take in Figure 2". Authors should supply succinct captions.
For photographic images good quality original photographs should be submitted. If submitted electronically they should be saved as tif files of at least 300dpi and at least 10cm wide. Their position in the text should be shown by typing on a separate line the words "take in Plate 2".
9. Tables Use of tables should be kept to a minimum. Where essential, these should be typed on a separate sheet of paper and numbered consecutively and independently of any figures included in the article. Each table should have a number in roman numerals, a brief title, and vertical and horizontal headings. In the text, the position of the table should be shown by typing on a separate line the words "take in Table I". Tables should not repeat data available elsewhere in the paper.
10. Photos, illustrations Half-tone illustrations should be restricted in number to the minimum necessary. Good glossy bromide prints should accompany the manuscripts but not be attached to manuscript pages. Illustrations unsuitable for reproduction, e.g. computer-screen capture will not be used. Any computer programs should be supplied as clear and sharp print-outs on plain paper. They will be reproduced photographically to avoid errors.
11. Emphasis Words to be emphasized should be limited in number and italicized. Capital letters should be used only at the start of sentences or in the case of proper names.
12. Abstracts Authors must supply an abstract of 100-150 words when submitting an article. It should be an abbreviated, accurate representation of the content of the article. Major results, conclusions and/or recommendations should be given, followed by supporting details of method, scope or purpose. It should contain sufficient information to enable readers to decide whether they should obtain and read the entire article. 13. Keywords Up to six keywords should be included which encapsulate the principal subjects covered by the article. Minor facets of an article should not be keyworded. These keywords will be used by readers to select the material they wish to read and should therefore be truly representative of the article's main content.
