About the journal
Defence and Peace Economics embraces all aspects of the economics of defence, disarmament, conversion and peace.
Examples include the study of alliances and burden-sharing; military spending in developed and developing nations; arms races; terrorism; country surveys; the impact of disarmament on employment and unemployment; the prospects for conversion and the role of public policy in assisting the transition; the costs and benefits of arms control regimes; the arms trade; economic sanctions; the role of the United Nations.
Further topics can be grouped around efficiency issues including budgeting, the military production function, procurement policies, defence industries, military manpower, internal markets in the armed forces and public choice issues.
Contributions can be theoretical or policy-oriented; and they might be based on case studies or projects, countries or industries. Whilst the emphasis will be on economics articles, good quality contributions from other relevant and related disciplines will be considered, as too will articles from industrialists, practitioners and policy-makers.

SUBMISSION OF MANUSCRIPTS
Submission of a paper to Defence and Peace Economics will be taken to imply that it represents original work not previously published, that it is not being considered elsewhere for publication, and that if accepted for publication it will not be published elsewhere in the same form, in any language, without the consent of editor and publisher. It is a condition of the acceptance by the editor of a typescript for publication that the publisher automatically acquires the copyright of the typescript throughout the world.

FORMAT OF MANUSCRIPTS
Manuscripts should be typed in double spacing with wide margins (3 cm) on one side of standard A4 paper.
Title Page: This should contain the title of the paper, a short running title, the name and full postal address of each author and an indication of which author will be responsible for correspondence, reprints and proofs. Abbreviations in the title should be avoided.
Abstract: This should not exceed 100 words and should be presented on a separate sheet, summarizing the significant coverage and findings. Include the Journal of Economic Literature classification codes (up to 3) if known.
Key words: Abstracts should be accompanied by up to six key words or phrases that between them characterize the contents of the paper. These will be used for indexing and data retrieval purposes.
TEXT HEADINGS
All headings in the text should be set over to the left-hand margin, and the text should begin on the next line. Type first level (sectional) headings all in capitals. For second and third level headings, only the first letter of the first word should be a capital. Underline third level headings. For example:
FIRST LEVEL TEXT HEADINGS
Second level text headings
Third level text headings
FOOTNOTES
Footnotes should be typed double spaced after the conclusion, before the list of references. Only essential footnotes should be included. The footnote section should begin a new page. The author footnote/acknowledgement should be given an asterisk and listed first.
REFERENCES
References should be indicated in the text by the name and date system: either "Recent work (Smith 1984) ..." or "Recently Smith (1984) ...". If more than three authors are listed, cite the references as "Smith et al. (1984) ...". References should be collected and typed at the end of the paper in alphabetical order according to the first author. They should be complete in all details, including article, book and journal titles in full. Examples:

FIGURES
All figures should be numbered with consecutive arabic numerals, have descriptive captions and be mentioned in the text. Figures should be kept separate from the text but an approximate position for each should be indicated in the margin. It is the author's responsibility to obtain permission for any reproduction from other sources.
Preparation: Figures must be of a high enough standard for direct reproduction. They should be prepared in black (India ink) on white card or tracing paper, with all the lettering and symbols included. Axes of graphs should be properly labelled and appropriate units given. Photographs intended for halftone reproduction must be high quality glossy originals of maximum contrast. Redrawing or retouching of unsuitable figures will be charged to authors.
Size: Figures should be planned so that they reduce to 10.5cm column width. The preferred width of submitted drawings is 16 - 21 cm, with capital lettering 4mm high, for reduction by one-half. Photographs for halftone reproduction should be approximately twice the desired size.
Captions: A list of figure captions should be typed on a separate sheet and included in the typescript.
TABLES
Tables should be clearly typed with double spacing. Number tables with consecutive arabic numerals and give each a clear descriptive heading. Avoid the use of vertical rules in tables. Table footnotes should be typed below the table, designated by superior lower-case letters. Tables should be on a separate unnumbered page. Place tables at the end of the paper after the References.
EQUATIONS AND FORMULAE (MATHEMATICAL)
Whenever possible, mathematical equations should be typewritten, with subscripts and superscripts clearly shown. It is helpful to identify Greek letters and unusual or ambiguous symbols in the margin when they first occur. To simplify typesetting, please use: (1) the "exp" form of complex exponential functions; (2) fractional exponents instead of root signs; and (3) the solid us (/) to simplify fractions - e.g. exp x 1/2. Equations should be centred and numbered on the right-hand side using consecutive arabic numerals in parentheses. References to equations in the text should use the form "Equation (5)" or simply "(5)".
Marking: The printer will set mathematical symbols in italics, except for obvious groups such as "sin" and "log". Any symbols that are to be left in roman (upright) type should be encircled in pencil in the typescript; bold symbols should be underlined with a wavy line.
COMMENTS AND PUBLISHED ARTICLES
Anyone wishing to submit a Comment on an article in Defence and Peace Economics is asked to send four copies to the appropriate Editor: William Rogerson for articles written by North American authors and Keith Hartley for all other authors. The Editor will send copies of the Comment to the original author for a review and to a referee. If the Editor accepts the Comment for publication, the original author will be invited to write a short Reply which will be considered for publication of the same issue of the journal.
PROOFS
Authors will receive proofs (including figures) by air mail for correction, which must be returned within 48 hours of receipt. Authors' alterations in excess of 10% of the original composition cost will be charged to authors.
Early Electronic Offprints:
Corresponding authors can now receive their article by e-mail as a complete PDF. This allows the author to print up to 50 copies, free of charge, and disseminate them to colleagues. In many cases this facility will be available up to two weeks prior to publication. Or, alternatively, corresponding authors will receive the traditional 50 offprints. A copy of the journal will be sent by post to all corresponding authors after publication. Additional copies of the journal can be purchased at the author's preferential rate of ?5.00/$25.00 per copy.
REPRINTS
Twenty-five reprints per article will be sent to the senior author free of charge. Additional copies may be purchased when returning proofs.
