Click Here for AEJ Anthology Submission Checklist

The Atlantic Economic Journal was established to facilitate increased communication and the sharing of constructive viewpoints among economists. In addition to formal publication of full-length articles, other avenues of less formal communication should be available. A small point may not be worthy of a formal paper but is important enough to warrant dissemination to colleagues. Research in progress may be of interest to other economists, particularly research with interesting and unusual results identified early in the study that would make a solid contribution to the literature. A research approach producing negative results should be shared to save others from similar pitfalls.

Anthologies provide a means by which short manuscripts can quickly appear in the AEJ and are similar to a brief communication.

Every attempt is made to complete the review process within one month after receipt of the manuscript. Manuscripts not meeting the guidelines listed below will be rejected without review.
