Style request: Perspectives on Politics
Hi there,
It seems POP changed its style from an in text citation thing - the one that is currently up on Zotero - to a form of basic notes with a separate bibliography.
*common sense mode on* sigh, why do journals do that? Can't they just stick to one darn style! *common sense off*
In text note: Posen 2003, 16, 21.
Bibliography entries:
Journal article
Posen, Barry. 2003. “Command of the Commons.” International Security 28(1): 5–46.
Book
Motyl, Alexander J. 1999. Revolutions, Nations, Empires:
Conceptual Limits and Theoretical Possibilities. New
York: Columbia University Press.
Chapter
Moon, Katharine. 2003. “Korea Nationalism, Anti-Americanism, and Democratic Consolidation.” In Korea’s Democratization, ed. Samuel L. Kim. New York: Cambridge University Press.

I am not literate in CSL code, but am willing to help testing.
Cheers.

Take a look at "International Organization" and "World Politics" - both use the same concept for a style. I think they should be pretty close?
If I ever get to edit a journal, first thing I'll do is: obscure journal citation style out, one of the big styles in. ;)
Any problems please let us know.
(In PoPs defense, this is still very close to CMoS and thus APSA style. Mainly they've moved reference to endnotes - which makes sense given that they want this to be more like good "non-fiction" and less like regular academic stuff)
URLs do not have brackets such as in:

Conference papers are supposed to be cited in this form:
Patel, David. 2012. “Preference Falsification, Diffusion, and the Centrality of Squares in the Arab Revolutions.” Prepared for the American Political Science Association Annual Meeting, New Orleans, LA,
August 30-September 2.
Cheers!
Not bad, congrats. The problem seemed to have been on the level of scope and fit, not substance. So, it could be worse.
