Journal of Economic Literature: Submissions

Instructions for Articles, Journals, Books, Dissertations, and EconLit Corrections


Articles

While most articles published in the JEL are commissioned by the editor, submissions are welcomed. It is preferred that authors of prospective articles discuss their ideas with the editor while the article is still in a formative stage, though complete papers will also be considered. Please see the Editor's Note on JEL policy and the Style Information for Articles pages for more information. Please see the Editors and Contacts page for contact information.

Disclosure Policy

Authors of articles appearing in the Journal of Economic Literature are expected to disclose any potential conflicts of interest that may arise from their consulting activities, financial interests, or other nonacademic activities.

Submit a Proposal/Article


Journals

All journals indexed and abstracted in JEL and EconLit have been accepted for listing based on criteria outlined in the editorial policy statement. Requests for listing, accompanied by a representative copy of the journal and a journal information form, should be sent to the JEL Pittsburgh Office.


Books

The Journal of Economic Literature annotates English language books with economic content that are over 60 pages in length. JEL does not annotate prepublication galleys or working papers. One copy of the book should be sent directly to the JEL Pittsburgh Office. The JEL staff does not monitor the publication of new books; therefore, if an annotation of a book does not appear six months after the publication date, please contact the JEL Pittsburgh Office or the publisher concerning the book.

Books for review are selected from the books sent to the JEL Pittsburgh Office for annotation. Only a small portion of the books are selected for review. See the JEL editorial policy for more information on book review selection. Articles and conference proceedings, reprinted paper collections, and other collected papers are also indexed individually in EconLit. If a collected paper volume is chosen for review, the editors will request a second copy for indexing from the publisher.


Dissertations

The December issue of the Journal of Economic Literature includes a list of recipients of doctoral degrees in economics conferred in U.S. and Canadian universities during the previous academic year.

Economics departments in North America are solicited for lists of doctoral recipients. Please contact diss "at" econlit.org for more information.


Corrections

The JEL staff endeavors to produce both JEL and EconLit without errors. However, if an error should occur, we are able to correct EconLit, which is available in electronic formats. Please notify the JEL Pittsburgh Office of any corrections in the bibliographic sections.
