Manuscripts are accepted on the understanding that they are original and not under simultaneous consideration by any other publication. All manuscripts are double-blind peer reviewed. Manuscripts should be prepared following The Chicago Manual of Style.

Manuscript style

• Manuscripts should be submitted electronically via e-mail. We accept files created with all major word processing packages, but prefer MS Word and LaTeX.
• The editors reserve to right to return to authors, without peer review, improperly formatted manuscripts.
• Papers should be between 5000 and 6000 words in length, accompanied by a 100--150-word abstract, and no more than five key words and two areas of JEL classification (see http://www.aeaweb.org/journal/jel_class_system.html) on a separate sheet.
• The title page must list full title, author(s) address, and e-mail.
• Paper size should be A4. Margins should be set for a 25 mm (1 in.) top, bottom, left, and right. The point size should be 12 and the font should be Times New Roman. Italics should be used for emphasis and bold for headings. Put blank lines between paragraphs and differentiate major and minor headings.
• Footnotes are not permitted. Endnotes are permissible but should be kept to a minimum.
• Tables and drawings should be incorporated into the text but they should not be obtained from the already published works. If the paper contains graphs, we would appreciate that you also e-mail them in a separate Excel file. The number of figures, graphs and/or tables combined is limited to 5.

Reference style

The author-date system of citation for references should be used in the text, followed by page number if a direct quotation is given, e.g., (Jackson 1979, 181). The alphabetized reference list should be titled ‘References’ with entries in the following format (please note that initials should be used for the authors' names):
