The keywords may consist of several words, in which case only the first word should begin with a capital letter.

- The submitted article must not include any identification of the author. Therefore, please follow the instructions to Ensure anonymous peer review.

The platform will send an automatic acknowledgement of receipt to the authors.

 

Submissions must meet the following Publication Guidelines:

In terms of correctness, style and non-discriminatory language Erasmus adheres to the recognized standards (see for example: https://dictionary.cambridge.org/dictionary/, https://apastyle.apa.org/style-grammar-guidelines/bias-free-language).

Format: Use Arial font, 12 pt, with 1.5 line spacing. Do not use any other format and send the manuscript left-justified, without hyphens, tabs or indentations.

Foreign words: italicize foreign words, but not the names of organizations and places (e.g., Organization of American States, Founding of the City of Buenos Aires, etc.).

Quotation marks: double or single quotation marks are used, depending on whether they mark the direct quotation of another author's words (“...”) or a quotation within a quotation or explain the meaning of a term ('...'). Angular marks («…») are used only if they appear within a quoted text of another author).

 

Abbreviations: Write them out in full the first time you mention them (followed by the abbreviation in parentheses). Very common abbreviations are excluded.

Changes and omissions: [...] within quotations should be represented by square brackets [squares].

 

Guidelines for citations

The Erasmus. Revista para el diálogo intercultural has adopted the author-date system of the APA Guidelines (7th edition, 2020).

For general information on the APA standards, see see for example:

https://www.lib.sfu.ca/help/cite-write/citation-style-guides/apa

Each cited source must appear in the bibliography, and each entry in the bibliography must be cited in the text (or in a table, figure, footnote, or appendix).

Verbatim citations of authors and field studies, as well as transcriptions of interviews, should be enclosed in quotation marks (without italics, boldface, or underlining).

Short quotations within the text should adhere to the following form: (author's last name, year). Example: (Habermas, 1998). When citing text, the page (Habermas, 1998, p. 45) or the first and last pages (Habermas, 1998, pp. 45-47) should be given.

Annotations are automatically created as footnotes.

Images, graphs, photographs, and illustrations are placed in the text where they are annotated and numbered according to the order in which they appear.

The list of references is not generated automatically. It should be placed at the end of the main body of the text in alphabetical order without numbering, tabulation, or bullets.
