Contributors receive one free copy of the issue of the journal and twenty free offprints of their article.

The refereeing policy for articles requires that two reports be furnished whereby the anonymity of the author of the article is preserved. The anonymity of referees, whose comments are forwarded to the authors, is likewise preserved. The editors are responsible for the selection and acceptance of articles; the opinions expressed in articles published and the accuracy of statements made therein are solely the responsibility of the individual authors. The editors disclaim responsibility for statements, either of fact or opinion, made by the contributors. The editors retain the right to condense articles and reviews. The "Issues of Australian Foreign Policy", Chronicles and Review Articles will be internally refereed by members of the Editorial Committee.

From time to time the Journal publishes thematic issues on special topics. Correspondence about potential topics for future special issues should be directed to either the Political Editor, as above, or the History Editor, Dr Andrew Bonnell, School of History, Philosophy, Religion and Classics, University of Queensland, Q. 4072, Australia. Email: a.bonnell@uq.edu.au.
