Guide for Authors

• The Journal of Asian Regional Orders Studies (JAROS) accepts submissions that are written in Persian/Farsi or English. Persian/Farsi or English submissions should have an extended abstract that includes 600- 700 words.

     JAROS accepts only one type of submission: Original Article. The structure of the submission should include title, abstract, introduction, theoretical approach, research literature, discussion, conclusion, and references.

A: Physical features

• The size of the article (including all pages, title, abstract, body, conclusion, and sources) should be at least 6000 and at most 10000 words in A4 format.
• The margins of the article are 4.5 from the left and right and 5.10 from top to bottom.
• The English abstract should be submitted in about 600-700 words with the quality of a publishable translation. Translation through
• Google and the like are not acceptable.

• Extended English Abstract — Submission Requirements

  Upon submission, and in addition to the short English abstract, authors must upload a single, separate file containing an extended English abstract prepared as follows:

  1. Length
     Provide no fewer than 600 and no more than 700 words.

  2. Scope and structure
     The extended English abstract must be a concise, self-contained synopsis of the article and comprise clearly labeled, distinct sections as follows:

  • Introduction and Objectives

  • Methods

  • Results and Discussion

  • Conclusions

  3. Section demarcation
     Each of the four headings must appear explicitly, with each section clearly distinguished from the others.

  4. Proportional balance
     Maintain a logical distribution of content across sections: approximately 20% Introduction and Objectives; 20% Methods; 50% Results and Discussion; 10% Conclusions.

  5. Keywords
     List five (5) keywords immediately following the abstract.

  6. Language quality (very important)
     If the abstract is translated from Persian, the English rendering must be precise, idiomatic, and publishable academic prose. Preliminary machine translations (e.g., output from automated tools such as Google Translate) are insufficient and will not be accepted.

• Abstracts should be in four sections: problem statement, main question and hypothesis, methodology, and findings and results.
• The number of keywords is between 5 and 7 words or a combination of words.
• Latin words in a footnote. This includes English, Russian, and other languages.
• Footnotes are numbered automatically on each page (key combination CTRL+ F + ALT) and should not be numbered manually.
• Except for the introduction, conclusion, and sources, do not mention titles such as chapters, sections, speeches, etc.
• The title of any section should not be the same as the title of the article.
• The conclusion of the article should not be a summary of the subjects and should state the results of the study and provide appropriate suggestions.
