Note for Contributors

 

Articles should range between 7000-8000 words, perspectives between 4000-6000 words, and notes/commentaries between 2000-3000 words. Manuscripts should be sent in electronic format (word document) and addressed to the Editor at ijhd@ihdindia.org.
Each contribution should be accompanied by an abstract/summary of around 150 words and a short biographical note/s on the author/s.

Notes in the text should be numbered and expanded at the end of the text in the form of Endnotes. Use of any reference in the endnotes should be in a consistent style similar to that of the text (for example: Deshpande, 2003) and should be expanded separately in the “Reference” section with all relevant information according to the Reference format.

All figures and tables should appear at the relevant places in the text and not at the end of the article. All figures and tables should be referred to by their numbers in the text (for instance, ‘See Table 1’, ‘See Figure 3’). The titles of the tables and figures should be brief and to the point. Tables and Figures should mention the source which should be placed at the bottom of respective tables and figures.

References should be embedded in the text in a consistent style, for instance, (Deshpande, 2003). The full details of this Reference should then be provided in the Reference list in alphabetical order starting with the author(s)' surname(s) in the following format.
