About: Aims, Philosophy and Submission Guidelines
C@tO is a non-profit, annual academic review magazine, a space where academics and practitioners can publish brief commentaries, position pieces, original papers, powerpoint presentations, working papers, and previously published papers which may no longer have a visibility in their original form.
The focus of the publication is the cultural, media and political aspects of the Olympic Movement, though a broad interpretation is applied to this and we welcome work from a range of disciplines and expertise. All papers will be subject to editorial guidance. It is requested that papers are written for a non-specialist audience to ensure a wide appeal . We will accept papers in English, French, or Spanish and publish them in their original language.
The serial's ISSN number is 1747-4698 and the publication will be available for free via the website. Work is copyright protected by a Creative Commons license.
Please note: The aim of this publication is to encourage a more informal, but informed language through which to discuss research or direct experience within the Olympics. It is also a space where ideas or critical proposals can be developed.Guidelines
for Submission:
There are no word limits as such, but a minimum 1,000 and approximate
maximum of 3,000 is a good indication of what we aim to publish. If your
paper has been published elsewhere, it is your responsibility to ensure
that you have permission from the previous publisher and to include an
acknowledgement and full reference in the paper. You are encouraged to
submit images with your publication, which must be owned by you or have
royalty-free status. In turn, C@tO wil not take ownership of them, nor
limit your preference to use the material elsewhere at any point in time.
In part, we would like to use this invitation as a way of documentating
the visual record of your research, which can be placed in the archive
of C@tO. (Please read about the Creative
Commons license for further details.)
C@tO functions in collaboration with the Olympic Scholars Network and Critical Olympiad, the Olympic research blog.
