Cultures and Globalization

Conflicts and Tensions &?ted by Helmut K. Anheier University of California, Los Angeles and Yudhishthir Raj Isar The American University of Paris

'Increasingly we all today live in the kind of 'edge cultures' we used to see only on the frontiers of civilizations in places like Hong Kong or Istanbul. The resulting frictions and fusions ?re shaping the soul of the coming world order. I can think of no other project with the ambitious scope of defining this emergent reality than the Cultures and Globalization project I can think of no more capable minds than Raj Isar and Helmut Anheir who can pull it off Nathan Gardels, Editor-in-Chief, NPQ, Global Services,

Los Angeles Times Syndicate/Tribune Media

In the Cultures and Globalization series, leading experts and emerging scholars track cultural trends connected to globalization throughout the world, resulting in a powerful analytic tool-kit that encompasses the transnational flows and scapes of contemporary cultures. Each volume presents data on cultural phenomena through colourful, innovative information graphics to give a quantitative portrait of the cultural dimensions and contours of globalization. This first volume, Conflicts and Tensions, analyses the cultural dimensions of conflict and the conflictual dimensions of culture.

9. Notes should be used only to provide additional comments and discussion and should be numbered consecutively throughout the article.

10. A reference list in the author date system should contain all the works referred to, listed

alphabetically by author's surname, with the date of the article placed in parentheses after the author's name, eg. Hall, Stuart and Sarat Maharaj (2001). Modernity and Difference, Annotations 6, London: Iniva, pp.2-8. Note that journal titles should be given in full, including volume and issue numbers, months and date, and page numbers of the article, eg. Scott, David

(1995). "Revolution, Theory, Modernity: Notes on the Cognitive-Political Crisis of Our Time." Social and Economic Studies, v.44 (2&3): 14-15.

11. References to source material in the text should take the form of surname, year and page numbers, eg. (Paul 2002: 22-26). There should be no comma between name of author and year.

12. Short quotations should be enclosed in quotation marks and incorporated in the text. Longer quotations (more than fifty words) should be indented from both margins, with no quotation marks (all double spaced). All items cited in the text, and only those items, should be included in the list of references.

13. Dates should be rendered as follows: 9 January 1980; 1970s; twentieth century; 1945-52 but 1952-4 (i.e., do not repeat decade digit if the same). Initials such as UNESCO, FAO, etc, should not have stops between letters. English spelling should be used throughout.

14. Tables and illustrative figures are not to be included in the text. They should be numbered

consecutively with Arabic numbers and should have titles as well as numbers. Tables are to be doubled spaced, with each table on a separate sheet. Figures, including maps, must also be on

separate sheets and must be of professional standard and in camera-ready form. Authors are

reminded that tables, appendices and graphs raise the cost of printing and should be kept to the absolute minimum. Their position in the text should be indicated.

15. SES treats the word 'data' as a singular mass entity like the word 'information'. Hence the

word 'data' should be treated as a collective noun taking singular verbs and pronouns. Thus

"The data is displayed in the following table" is preferred to "The data are displayed..."

16. Mathematical notation is very expensive to reproduce and should be kept to a minimum. A

void the use of unusual symbols where common ones are satisfactory. A void fractions in the

form a over b and use a/b instead. Avoid such distinguishing marks as carets, tildes, and

circumflexes above letters, as these are not readily available and require artwork. Use the

acceptable alternatives (B*) where possible. Special care is required with letters and symbols that are close in appearance, such as u and v and w and with the use of 0 and 1 where these can be read as either letters or numbers. Superscripts and subscripts in mathematical terms

should be accurately aligned. Where mathematical formulae are set out and numbered, these numbers should be placed against the right hand margin, as...(l). Careful checking of the

layout of all mathematical formulae including alignment, centring, length of fraction lines and

type, size, position and closure of brackets, etc., should be carried out before the final

manuscript is submitted to avoid corrections at the proof stage. Where it would assist referees, authors should provide supplementary mathematical notes on the derivation of equations.

17. Book review headings should appear as follows: Title, author, publisher, place, date, also

pagination and price, if available.

18. Contributors will be sent proofs of their articles, if time allows, but unaccepted manuscripts will not be returned.

19. The editor reserves the right to make any corrections or alterations considered necessary. Authors should use the active voice except where they have a good reason to use the passive. "We" for two or more authors, never as a substitute for "I".

20. Authors are entitled to 10 free offprints and a copy of the issue in which their article appears. 21. Copyright of articles published in the journal rests with the publishers.
