Apologies,

I did not copy all the information . It is a CFP for publication in a
special issue of the Justice spatiale | Spatial Justice journal
(bilingual journal/ English and French).

additional information can be found on their website:

http://jssj.org/04.php

I enclosed below a copy of 'Note for the Authors'  section:

The Justice spatiale | Spatial Justice journal is a bilingual journal:
all the papers are published both in French and English. When
possible, the authors are asked to send their paper initially in
French and English to ensure that their text is published promptly.
Translations can also be submitted once the paper is accepted. The
Editorial Board also accepts the submission of papers in Spanish and
Portuguese (if the manuscript is selected, the author is to ensure the
translation into French or English).

The papers are submitted to the Editorial Board according the following steps:

1. The author sends his/her manuscript by e-mail to the scientific
secretary: [log in to unmask] or [log in to unmask]

2. The paper is forwarded to two readers, who are selected according
to the subject of the paper. In case of diverging opinions, a third
reader is designated.

3. If the outcome of the peer review process is favorable, the reviews
are discussed by the editorial board. The comments are collated and
sent to the author, who, if necessary, sends a revised version to the
scientific secretary (showing clearly the modifications he/she made).

Manuscript Submission Guidelines

Papers should not exceed 9000 words. The abstract (200 words maximum)
and the keywords (5 maximum) are in English and in French.

The title is followed by the name, surname, position, affiliation, and
address of the author. It is imperative that authors remove from their
submissions any further information that could identify them or their
affiliations to reviewers. The scientific secretary will also ensure
that the manuscript is anonymous before sending it for peer-review.
All correspondence, including notification of the Editor's decision
and requests for revisions, are sent by email.

Text files format:

Papers must be drafted in Word format (Microsoft Word (PC or MAC),
Times New Roman 12). The bibliography follows the Harvard standard
(see the first issue of the journal for examples).

Pictures, audio and video files

All illustrations should be sent as separate files and their exact
location should be indicated in the text. The journal welcomes
complementary materials. Complementary materials should be directly
related to the article. Complementary files will be subjected to
peer-review alongside the article. Complementary files will not be
checked for accuracy, copyedited, typeset or proofread. The
responsibility for scientific accuracy and file functionality remains
with the authors. The journal cannot provide technical support for the
creation of complementary material.

Pictures, audio and video files formats

Pictures (maps, graphs, photography…): .jpg and .gif

Audio format: .mp3 .aac and .wma

Video formats: maximum resolution 640 x 480 pixels, 25 frames /
second, 150 Mo maximum, .mov .mp4 and .avi formats. All video clips
must be created with commonly-used codec, and the codec used should be
noted in the complementary material legend. Video files should be
tested for playback before submission, preferably on computers not
used for its creation, to check for any compatibility issues.

Copyright:

Authors must obtain permission to reproduce all matter in the
following categories:

- All maps, diagrams, figures and photographs.

- Single passages of prose exceeding 250 words, or scattered passages
totaling more than 400 words from any one work. Please supply the
publisher with full information for all work cited, including author,
