Author Guidelines
Dear authors,
please pay attention.
The main requirements for articles are the scientific novelty of the research subject, the originality of the research problem and the applied research methods, the use of documents not previously introduced into scientific circulation, and the scientific significance of the conclusions. A special requirement is for the style: the article must be written in literary Russian.
Articles that do not meet these main requirements are not accepted for review.
In addition, articles are not accepted for review.:
1) the main material of which has already been published by the author in another journal or posted on the Internet (under a different name, in a different editorial office or in co-authorship),
2) designed according to the author's habits, not according to our requirements,
3) containing spelling, grammar, punctuation and stylistic errors,
4) containing an unreliable bibliographic description of the research used (articles and monographs) and published sources (memoirs, collections of documents, etc.),
5) with a text originality of less than 75% (based on the analysis of the Anti-Plagiarism system)
Reviewing articles is the responsibility of the editorial board of the journal. This means that the author of the article should not send any reviews, they will not be considered in any case. When reviewing, the principle of incognito ("double blind") is strictly observed: The reviewer does not know the author's name and position – the author does not know the names and positions of the reviewers. The reviews of the editorial board members and the experts involved are not sent to the author, and the editorial staff does not enter into a discussion of the advantages and disadvantages of the article with the author.
In normal cases, a three-month period is allocated for review; then the editorial board decides whether to accept the article for publication (with or without revision) or reject it. The editor-in-chief informs the author about the editorial board's decision and sends him an editorial opinion on the article by e-mail.
References to the author's own works, made in order to artificially increase his impact factor in the RSCI, are deleted during editing.
Please DO NOT refer to articles previously published in the New Historical Bulletin: the editorial board strives for zero self-citation of the journal, so links to the field are deleted during the editing process.
The journal's editorial ethics are based on the Civil Code of the Russian Federation (Chapter 70 "Copyright"), the Law of the Russian Federation "On Mass Media" and the Code of Conduct and Best Practices for Journal Editors (Committee on Ethics of Scientific Publications (COPE), 2011).
We remind you of the civil, administrative and criminal liability for infringement of copyright and related rights. If plagiarism or falsified references to sources are found during the review process, checking for "incorrect borrowing" and editing, the article is removed from review, and other articles by this author are not accepted for review.
The editorial board provides open access to the published issues of the journal: electronic texts of published articles are available completely and free of charge to all users of the journal's website, RSCI and CyberLeninka.
In accordance with the requirements of the RSCI, Scopus, and Web of Science bibliographic databases, the editorial board of the journal has introduced more complex rules for the design of scientific reference materials than in many other journals. The main ones are:
1) exact information about the author's place of work;
2) a detailed, informative, logically structured abstract;
3) duplication of references to Russian research literature by transliterating them in Latin (in the BGN standard) and partially translating them into English.
The editorial board accepts articles in electronic form (Word format, .doc file type).
E-mail of the editorial office and publisher: nivestnik@yandex.ru
The article should be designed strictly in accordance with the requirements set out below and carefully proofread.
The file (.doc) must contain:
information about the author: surname, first name and patronymic, academic degree and academic title, place of work and position, email address; ORCID must be indicated.
abstract of the article (volume – from 1,400 to 2,000 characters);
keywords (7-10 concepts, terms, and proper names).
The file should contain: information about the author in English: last name, first name and patronymic, academic degree and title, place of work and position;
the title and abstract of the article are in English; keywords are in English.
The abstract should include: a statement of the research purpose of the article, a description of its novelty, an indication of the archival documents used for the first time, a list of the issues studied, and the most important conclusions. The abstract should be "built" on three key, "bearing" phrases like these: "Based on previously unknown documents (or such an archive), the article examines...", "For the first time in Russian historiography, it examines...", "Special attention is paid to such and such issues...", "The main focus is on such and such...", "A conclusion is drawn about such and such...", "The author comes to the conclusion ..."
The text of the abstract should use the most important keywords.
