Submissions

Manuscripts submitted for publication should be sent via the Submission system. Only documents in standard pdf or Microsoft Word format should be sent.

Submission of a paper will be regarded as implying that it contains original unpublished work and is not being submitted for publication elsewhere.

Manuscripts should be in English. It is the responsibility of the author to ensure that the typescript is correct in style, syntax and spelling. Manuscripts will be considered in any form, but manuscripts longer than 50 pages are rarely accepted for publication. The manuscripts should be double-spaced. We use single-blind process so the article need not be anonymized. The manuscripts should include the title of the paper, the full names of the authors and their contact information, abstract, keywords, the JEL codes, and acknowledgements on the first page.
