Contributing a Chapter

Please note that we do not accept chapters for publication outside of agreed Open Calls. Do not send chapters unless they are intended for an Edited Collection, as listed above.

Chapter proposals should normally be sent as an Abstract (summary) of 250 to 500 words. A complete chapter should be sent in an editable format, normally Microsoft Word, and be free of spelling and grammar errors. Chapter proposals and chapters should also be accompanied by an author CV. Chapters should be written in English; should be the work of the author; and must not infringe any person or organization’s intellectual property rights (copyright).

Unless otherwise instructed by an Editor, chapter proposals and chapters should be sent in the first instance to admin@ethicspress.com where they will be logged and sent on to the editor.

A Chapter will normally be between 3,000 and 6,000 words, but these are not strict word limits, and can be discussed with the Editor.

Ethics International Press is an academic (scholarly) publisher, and Collections which contain Chapters will primarily serve an academic market (research, study and teaching). Chapters should therefore be presented in a style and language which fits an academic audience, which includes full and proper referencing.

Accepted Chapter Authors will be asked to sign a short agreement. We cannot include a chapter in a collection without an agreement.

Please address any further questions to us at admin@ethicspress.com
