Formatting of a Bibliographical Reference in the Text

References are formatted according to ГОСТ 7.0.5-2008 « Bibliographical Reference. Common Requirements And Regulations» (Reedition. June, 2020).

In the text you should use automatic footnotes while referencing to a resource, with continuous numbering and Arabic numerals. In the footnote you should specify the place where the document may be found or the information about the document publication.

For example: РГАЭ, Ф. 8082, Оп. 1, Д. 226, Л.8; или

60 лет Ленинскому плану ГОЭЛРО. /Сост. Г.П. Смидович/ М., 1980. С.5.

References in the text are square bracketed and contain the surname of the cited author of the work, the year of edition and the page number.

For example: [Побережников: 2006, С.18]

If a bibliographical reference lacks an author(s) (collective monograph, collection, document, etc.), you should specify the short title of the work with an elision mark, then a comma and the year of edition. If a reference is in a foreign language, then a surname or a title is specified in this language. If there are several authors (editors), you should put only the first surname. If you give a reference to several resources in the text, then follow the requirements above and separate the resources with a semicolon.

For example: «…интерпретации действий центральных властей и своего отношения к ним представлено работами А. Ирвина и Б. Вынна [Irwin, 2001; Irwin, Wynne, 1996]».

Recommendations for References

(ГОСТ Р 7.0.5–2008)

References are made in the form of a bibliographic list in the alphabetic order after the text of the manuscript (at first Russian resources). If References contain works by one and the same author, edited in the same year, you should put Latin letter identification after the year of edition. Bibliographical entry is made as follows.
