Economics at a Glance
The publication process is simple:
-
Authors upload their submissions (see submit article).
-
The Associate Editors either accept the submissions for the economics discussion Paper Series, or reject (quick decision).
-
Referees and Registered Readers read and comment the paper (at most 8 weeks).
-
The Associate Editors accept or reject the papers for publication as articles in economics.
-
Registered Readers continue to read and comment the published articles. Furthermore they are asked to rate the articles in economics on a scale of one to five.
-
In a later stage: The numbers of ratings, downloads and citations determine whether the articles enter the one-star (*), two-star (**) or three-star (***) series of economics. Prizes for the most outstanding papers in special fields are awarded.
