Quotation marks

Authors are requested to distinguish between direct and indirect quotation:

§  Direct quotation: ( « » ) used to include a direct speech or a text from a published work.
Keep in mind that:
·           The text should be exactly quoted.
·           At the end of the quotation it must be the surname of the author, the year of the work and the page where the quotation was found.
·         Cuts within the quoted text should be indicated with […] .

«Durkheim […] was able to show that such dispositions are socially structured and thus vary with the social cohesion and social support which different communities […] are able to bring to marginalized members» (Pawson and Tilley, 1997, p.65-66).

Cottino (1997) found a «probable link between the condition of disengagement or social isolation […] and forms of problematic abuse» (p. 340).

According to Bonino and colleagues (2003, p. 77), «the potential risk effects linked to precocity may be not only reduced but even nullified by the context in which first and subsequent consumption occurs».

·           If the quotation is longer than 5 lines, it should be separated from the text using a single spacing above and a single spacing beneath and written in a 10 points bodytape.

Teaching the human condition: humans are biological, psychological, cultural, social, and historical beings, all in one; the separate tuition of these disciplines disintegrates the human condition […].Tackle uncertainty, learn to sail the oceans of uncertainty through coasting islands of certainty […].Teach understanding: the means to the end of human communication (Morin 2001, p.12).

§  Indirect quotation: ( “ ” ) used to introduce non literal quotation or in order to emphasize words, or small parts of sentences, or a quotation within another quotation.

Bibliographical references in the text

When making reference to an author’s work in the text, their name should be followed by the year of publication of the work (year of the first edition in original language):

As Jameson (2005) argues...

The dream theory (Freud, 1988) claims that…

If more than one publication from an author illustrates the same point and the works are published in different years, the references should be cited in chronological order (i.e. earliest first), without the repetition of the author’s name:

as suggested by Bloggs (1992, 1994) who found that …

research in the nineties (Bloggs 1992, 1994) found that …

 When the references is related to a specific part of the work, include the page numbers after the year:

 Bloggs (1992 p. 31, 1994 p. 126)

In case of references to several works published by the same author in the same year, they should be differentiated by adding a lower case letter directly, with no space, after the year for each item:

Earlier research by Dunn (1993a) found that…but later research suggested again by Dunn (1993b) that …

 see, for example Smith (1990a)

If several works published in the same year are referred to on a single occasion, or an author has made the same point in several publications, they can all be referred to by using lower case letters:

 Bloggs (1993a, b) has stated on more than one occasion that …

 When there are two authors for a work they should both be noted in the text:

 White and Brown (2004) in their recent research paper found...

with regard to the role of libraries, Crane and Urquhart (1994) suggest... 

or indirectly, using an “and”:

During the mid nineties research undertaken in Luton (Slater and Jones, 1996) showed that...

Earlier research (White and Brown, 1966) demonstrated that...

When the reference belongs to a work by up to a maximum of three authors, the last two names should be connected by “and”:

(Saltaman, Bankauskaite and Vrangbaek 2007)

as Saltaman, Bankauskaite and Vrangbaek (2007) stated….

When there are several authors (more than three), the first name should be used, followed by et al.:

(Beck et al. 1979)

Beck et al. (1979) assert….

Where several references from different authors are cited together in the text they may be placed in alphabetical or chronological order, and separated by semi-colons:

a new view of operations (Abu-Lughold 1994; Davis 1999; Watson 1999;) 

The paper should be carefully checked to ensure that the spelling of authors' names and dates are exactly the same in the text as in the reference list.

Ensure that the text citation appears in the reference list and that any references in the list are cited in the text.
 

Bibliographical references at the end of the text  

All material relating to references contained in the text should be placed at the end of the paper.
The list of references should be arranged alphabetically by authors' names
(not enumerated).
Where more than one article by an author appears these should be placed in chronological order.
To distinguish works of the same author published in the same year, use alphabetical letters (a, b, c, etc.).
The reference should include the full name of the article, paper or book.
It should be clear the difference between kinds of material used by means of the combination of fonts.
Use italic (instead of underlining) for journal and book titles.
