Impact of COVID-19

The unprecedented situation regarding COVID-19 might lead to some delays and changes in the peer review process, particularly in regards to new submissions. We request your understanding and cooperation during this time. In case of any inquiries, please write to the IJDC Editorial Office. We will make every effort to get back to you as soon as possible.

Editorial Process

The review process of the IJDC is designed to provide authors with timely decisions. All submissions will receive an initial in-house review to filter out manuscripts that are inappropriate for various reasons such as excessive length, falling outside the scope of the journal, or generally lacking the requisite quality to warrant demands on referees' time. The remaining manuscripts will be peer-reviewed under the supervision of the editor for the relevant subfield. The review process will be double-blind with referees and authors remaining anonymous. Referee reports will be advisory but not definitive in the editors' decisions. Revise and resubmits will be used sparingly.

Submissions

Submissions should be made in MS WORD by email to the IJDC Editorial Office. Submissions should be non-anonymous, double-spaced, and with 12-point font. The first page of the manuscript should contain only the paper title; names, affiliations and email addresses of all authors (corresponding author should be indicated if more than one author); an abstract of not more than 150 words; keywords; and JEL codes.

Citations and References

Citations should conform to the style guidelines of the American Economic Review: Style Guide (https://www.aeaweb.org/journals/policies/sample-references). References must be provided in alphabetical order, at the end of the paper.

Figures and Tables

After a manuscript is accepted for publication, graphics for the final version must be submitted as separate files. When supplying color figures or halftones (photos), ensure that there is sufficient contrast to enable clear black and white printing. Use either Times New Roman or Arial typefaces on all figures. Do not put boxes around figures. Halftones should be supplied in 300 dpi resolution.

Copyright

Contributions submitted to the IJDC should be original and should not be under consideration for any other publication at the same time. Contributors warrant that the work is not an infringement of any existing copyright and will indemnify the Gokhale Institute of Politics and Economics of any breach of such warranty.
