Editorial Policy
NUSA focuses on the analysis of Indonesian languages: Malay-Indonesian (including standard, regional, and contact varieties) and other languages used in Indonesia.  Submissions on languages outside this scope will also be considered, but only insofar as they are relevant in some way to this main focus.  Fieldwork reports in the form of data analysis or texts with translation, book reviews, squibs, and other discussions are also accepted. 
    Papers appearing in NUSA should consist of previously unpublished work written in English, or of translations into English of work originally published in other languages.  NUSA aims to be relevant beyond the field of area studies, and encourages theoretically oriented submissions which utilize data from Indonesian languages, serving the cause of de-occidentalization of general linguistics.  Volume proposals from guest editors are also welcome.
Submission Format
Contributors are to follow the format of the Linguistic Society of America with the exception that in the footnote and bibliography, articles are to be put in quotation marks and books or journals italicized.  Content words in the bibliography (nouns, verbs, adjectives) in a title of a book or article must be capitalized.  Examples in the text should be given in bold type, followed by an English gloss in single quotation marks. 
    Articles should begin with a one-paragraph abstract, and be divided into titled sections.  Text should be in Times New Roman, 10 points; footnotes in Times New Roman, 8 points.  Information presented in columns or tables should be formatted as tables, not using the space and tab bars.  If any phonetic fonts are used, the relevant fonts should accompany the submission.
    Non-native speakers of English are strongly encouraged to have their manuscripts edited by a competent native speaker.  Manuscripts for publication should be submitted in electronic form as well as in paper form.  Electronic submissions, in the form of Microsoft Word attachments, should be sent to:
