? = username $REMOTE_ASSR = IP address Sat, 25 Sep 2021 01:28:41 = Date & Time Instructions for Authors Environmental Values brings together contributions from philosophy, economics, politics, , geography, anthropology, ecology and other disciplines, which relate to the present and future environment of human beings and other species. In doing so we aim to clarify the relationship between practical policy issues and more fundamental underlying principles or assumptions. The journal provides a forum for original academic papers that are accessible to people from other disciplines, and also those who operate outside the academic community. To this end, contributors should avoid needless technicality. They should also bear in mind the requirements of an international readership when making reference to localised places or events. Manuscripts should show engagement with on-going intellectual debates, and awareness of the current literature. Authors should especially make sure they are cognisant of papers published in recent issues of Environmental Values that are relevant to their topic. Submissions must be original and not currently under consideration for publication elsewhere. We aim to reach a decision on publication within three months of receipt of the submission. Specific Guidance Word Limit. Unless otherwise agreed, manuscripts should be a maximum of 7,000 words in length or 28 pages (formatted as specified below). Manuscripts of excessive length will not be considered. Format. Borders of 2.5cm/1inch all round. Font Times Roman 12pt. Double spaced. Avoid excessive use of subheadings and text formatting for emphasis (underlining, bold, italics). English. Manuscripts should be in English and be of an acceptable standard in that regard (if in doubt please have a native speaker read your manuscript prior to submission). Anonymous Manuscript. To allow blind refereeing, please ensure that your manuscript is anonymous by including your name, contact details and self-identifying references separately from the manuscript. An email and full postal address for editorial correspondence should also be given separately. Abstract. A summary of around 100 words, and a list of four or five ʻkey wordsʼ should be provided. Footnotes, if any, will be printed at the end of the article. These should be numbered consecutively through the text, and presented on a separate sheet of paper, typed with double spacing. Bibliographic citations can appear in text or notes. These should include the authorʼs last name and the title or year of publication, and may include a page reference: (Aldred, 2006: 142). A separate list of references should be provided, in alphabetical order. Please do not abbreviate journal titles. The following style should be employed: Aldred, J. 2006. ʻIncommensurability and monetary valuationʼ. Land Economics 82(2): 141–161. Martinez-Alier, J., G. Munda and J. OʼNeill. 1998. ʻWeak comparability of values as a foundation for ecological economicsʼ. Ecological Economics 26(3): 277–286. Rolston III, H. 1989. Philosophy Gone Wild.

Economics, Ethics and Environment. (London: Routledge), pp.119–134. Copyright and Future Use. The editors reserve the right to make alterations which do not involve any change of meaning. Contributors are expected to assign copyright to the publisher, though they remain free to use material in subsequent publications written or edited by themselves provided Environmental Values is acknowledged as the original place of publication. Twenty free offprints of published articles will be supplied, and authors will be supplied on request with a pdf file from which they are free to print as many further copies of the article as they require. Submission. Contributors should submit papers by email, as Microsoft Word documents or in rich text format, not in pdf or other formats unless specifically agreed.
