It has paid particular attention to the political economy of inequality, exploitatation and oppression, whether driven by global forces or local ones (such as class, race, community and gender), and to materialist interpretations of change in Africa. It has sustained a critical analysis of the nature of power and the state in Africa". Aside from this substantive remit, we are looking for submissions which present new empirical material, rethink existing literature in a stimulating fashion, or coherently argue a fresh understanding of existing issues. We seek papers which are clearly organised, concisely expressed and free from unnecessary jargon, sexist or other discriminatory language. We may occasionally consider material in languages other than English. Submissions should be original contributions not previously published (in part or in whole) and not under consideration for any other publication, unless a special case has been made. ROAPE publishes Articles, Debates and Briefings. Briefings are generally short, topical and informative pieces, including documents, with a ‘stop press’ policy for urgent items. Debates require an author to take a position on a controversial topic, either engaging with a previous piece or inviting response. The maximum length for Briefings and Debates is 4000 words . Articles are generally longer and aim both to inform the reader and to engage in debate around theory and/or political economy analysis . The recommended length for an article is no longer than 8,000 words, including no more than ten endnotes and Bibliography (see Style Guidelines) unless exceptional reasons can be cited.  We also publish reviews of academic and political books, fiction and film. The recommended length is 800 words or up to 2000 for a review article of several books. Submission procedure All submissions should be made online at the Review of African Political Economy ScholarOne Manuscripts site . New users should first create an account. Once a user is logged onto the site submissions should be made via the Author Centre. Online user guides and access to a helpdesk are available on this website. Article, Briefings and Debate Pieces: All articles are anonymously peer-reviewed. You will be contacted by one of the Editors in relation to the outcome of this process – whether your submission is to be accepted as it stands, revised in a major or minor way or rejected. Feedback will be offered as appropriate. Where revisions are in order, the Editors will make suggestions using the comments of the independent reviewers, and will negotiate a time frame in which these should be carried out. Reviews are refereed by our Reviews Editor (Branwen Gruffydd Jones). She will send more detailed guidelines on request.   Copy-editing process : Page proofs will be sent by email to the address supplied by the author. They should be corrected and returned within 48 hours.
