We recommend that authors present the articles in English. In all cases, please include a short summary (12-15 lines) in English.

We request you to draw the attention of the editors to any information related to newly published books and articles, completed dissertations and recent conferences. Mark off please very clearly Oriental scripts like Ethiopic, Arabic, Greek, Hebrew, etc. We have decided on the following transliteration of Ethiopic.

1. Please prepare your manuscript throughout in double line spacing.
2. Use only internationally recognized acronyms.
3. Pay attention to the uniform arrangement of your manuscript.
4. Words and phrases selected to be distinct should be in bold or in italics; other ways of marking for distinction or emphasis (such as underlining, etc.) should be avoided.
