We aim to publish quality bilingual research in the social sciences and humanities about Canada. Our vision involves efforts to decolonize knowledge and scholarship within the field of Canadian Studies, and we hope to publish pieces and articles that center the voices of misrepresented, underrepresented, and unrepresented groups. We recognize that we exist within a context where undergraduate journals are few and far between, and there are limited opportunities or avenues for undergraduate students to publish their work.&nbsp; Our mission involves fostering debate and intellectual exchange between emerging scholars and thinkers who are engaging critically with Canada. As well as to ensure that our writers and contributors feel supported during what might be for many of them their first publishing process.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The journal includes articles, research notes, book reviews, and other submissions that contribute to the study of Canada, both at home and abroad. The journal is interested in all types of research, whether cultural, political, economic, demographic, or scientific, without methodological, temporal, or geographic restrictions. The journal gives priority to studies that explicitly situate themselves in the field of Canadian Studies and are innovative in sources, method, or interpretation. <em>Contemporary Kanata<\/em>&nbsp;is open to individual submissions but has also published special issues focused on specific topics.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The journal is situated in the Robarts Centre for Canadian Studies at 快播视频. One issue is published yearly, with the financial assistance of the Robarts Centre and 快播视频. The journal is published electronically, but it can be printed in small runs for specific purposes. It is open access.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">General Editorial Policy <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Contemporary Kanata is<\/em> published generally once per year (with exceptions). Texts submitted for editorial and external reviewer approval must fall within the journal's mandate and meet the requirements of an academic research journal of national and international scope. Before submitting a manuscript, please ensure it meets the journal\u2019s publishing standards as set out in the \u201cManuscript Presentation\u201d and \u201cStyle Guide\u201d sections below.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The journal accepts only exclusive and unpublished material. This means...&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>that it is an unpublished work that is not being evaluated by another journal;&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>that one waits to receive a response from the journal\u2019s editorial committee before submitting a text currently submitted for consideration by&nbsp;<em>Contemporary Kanata &nbsp;<\/em>to another journal or publisher;&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>That, if and once accepted for publication, the copyright belongs exclusively to&nbsp;<em> Contemporary Kanata<\/em>, unless otherwise agreed and noted.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Bilingualism<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Contemporary Kanata<\/em>&nbsp;is a bilingual journal that publishes in English and French and caters to a largely bilingual audience. Both languages may be used. Quotations or citations from either language need not be translated unless a specific argument regarding the language or translation is being made.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Quotations in English or French must be retained in their original language in the text. If the author wishes to provide a translation for convenience, it should appear as a footnote.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Quotations should not be italicized, but placed within quotation marks.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>On the recommendation of the Translation Bureau, translate the names of universities according to the rules found here.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Example:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table class=\"has-fixed-layout\"><tbody><tr><td>Universit\u00e9 de Moncton<\/td><td>University of Moncton<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Universit\u00e9 Laval<\/td><td>Laval University<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Universit\u00e9 de Montr\u00e9al<\/td><td>University of Montr\u00e9al<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Universit\u00e9 Laurentien<\/td><td>Laurentian University<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Universit\u00e9 d\u2019Ottawa<\/td><td>University of Ottawa<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Universit\u00e9 Sainte-Anne<\/td><td>Saint Anne\u2019s University<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Author Guidelines<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Submissions<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Interested in submitting?&nbsp;<em>Contemporary Kanata<\/em>&nbsp;requires authors to&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/kanata.journals.yorku.ca\/index.php\/default\/user\/register\">register<\/a>&nbsp;with the journal prior to submission.
