HOUSESTYLE
You have a choice of 1) Author-Date Style, 2) Footnotes. Most
social scientists are used to Author-Date, so please go ahead
and use it. If your article tends to the textual and incorporates
sizeable quotes from Max Weber or whoever, the Footnote format
may be more suitable. Also, the Journal prefers that authors
give quotes in English translation in the main text; however
footnotes allow the original German quote to be viewed at
the same time - and this is clearly a desideratum.
Author-Date Style.
In the text the basic reference is:
| |
(Brown 1980) |
| |
(Brown 1980c) |
| |
(Brown 1980: 23-25) |
| |
(Brown 1980: 230 n.2) |
| |
(Brown 1980: Ch. 3) |
| |
(Brown 1980: II, 231) |
| |
(Brown 1980: vol. 2) [if whole volume is
being referred to] |
| [There is no comma after Brown, use a space after colon,
and no 'p' or pp'.] |
Several works by same author:
| |
(Jones 1963, 1972a, 1986) |
| |
(Jones 1963a: 10; 1972; 1986: 123) |
| |
(Jones 1963a; 1972a: 156; Smith 1982) |
In the bibliography, these are the forms:
| |

versus the Politics of Responsibility', in W.J. Mommsen
and J. Osterhammel (eds.), Max Weber and his Contemporaries

as 'ss'.]
[For a member of the Weber family always give their first name.]
[Use 1999a, and 1999b for multiple entries in one year.]
Footnotes may also be used in Author-Date style, if you find
there is too much material to include within the text without
breaking up its flow. Reference as follows:
| |
Smith 1982: 145; Jones 1980:
68 [use when footnote contains only author/date reference].
Smith (1982: 145) should be consulted for details [use
when reference is part of a sentence]. |

Arnold, 1983). |

case for volume two of Abteilung one.] |
| |

the form is: |
| |
p. 23 n.4
p. 44 nn. 5,7

such as 'advise', 'practise' and 'compromise'. |
