About the journal
Aims & Scope
New Political Economy aims to create a forum for work which combines the breadth of vision which characterised the classical political economy of the nineteenth century with the analytical advances of twentieth century social science. It seeks to build on conceptual innovations, such as structuration theory, institutional economics and the new public choice, which have tried to create an integrated analysis, thereby combining parsimonious theories which analyse agency in terms of instrumental rationality with contextual theories which analyse structures institutionally and historically.
The main emphasis will be on exploratory and innovative work which draws on different disciplines and addresses core issues in the main constituent elements of its research agenda.
Namely:
comparative political economy
the political economy of the environment
the political economy of development
and international political economy.

New Political Economy aims to create a forum for work in political economy which seeks to bridge past empirical and conceptual divides. It is a journal of scholarship and accepts original articles which are not under consideration by another publication at the time of submission. Articles should be approximately 8000 words in length (excluding notes), should be free from jargon and should be written as clearly and concisely as possible. Accepted articles must conform to New Political Economy style requirements.
Submissions: Articles should be submitted electronically to npe@sheffield.ac.uk and should be in Word for Windows format. If this is not possible, the document should be saved in either a "Text" or "ASCII" format, in which case please indicate this clearly in the accompanying e-mail. Documents must be scanned thoroughly for viruses before submission. A delivery confirmation will be sent on receipt of the submission.
The Editors are responsible for the selection and acceptance of articles, but responsibility for errors of fact and opinions expressed in them rests with the authors. The content of articles should not infringe any existing copyright. If any table or figure, or more than a few lines of the text from previously published work or unpublished theses are included in the manuscript the author must obtain written permission for republication from the copyright holder; the original source should be clearly referenced and acknowledged in the manuscript.
Presentation: Manuscripts should be double-spaced throughout (including all quotations and endnotes), and typed in English on single sides of paper. Generous margins on both sides of the page should be allowed for and pages numbered consecutively. The author should retain a copy as submitted manuscripts cannot be returned. Full names of the author(s) should be given, an address for correspondence, the name of their current institution(s), a telephone number and e-mail address. A short note with details of current and recent academic and professional affiliations, together with a list of major publications (with dates and the name of the publishers) and of forthcoming books, should be supplied for inclusion in 'Notes on Contributors'.
Titles and sub-headings: Titles should be kept short. The Editors reserve the right to alter titles in consultation with the author. Authors are encouraged to use sub-headings at suitable points throughout the text. Where sub-headings are used they should be typed flush left with only the first word and any proper names capitalised.
Tables and figures: These should be prepared on separate sheets using originals where possible; they should not be included within the text. The author(s) should indicate clearly in the margin of the paper where tables and figures are to be inserted. Each table and figure should be numbered consecutively in Arabic numerals with an appropriate caption (e.g. Table 1, Table 2; Figure 1, Figure 2, and so on). The source of the table, figure or data used must be expressed at the bottom of each table or figure, not in the endnotes. For example:
1. Source: International Labour Organisation, World Labour Report, 1997-8. 2. Source: own elaboration based on data from World Bank, World Development Indicators 2004, http://www.worldbank.org/data/wdi2005/wditext/Cover.htm
Permission to reproduce copyright material must be obtained by the author(s) prior to submission and this should be brought to the Editors' attention at the time that the article is first submitted.
Endnotes: Notes should be marked clearly in the text at the point of punctuation by superior numbers, and listed consecutively at the end of the article. They should not be at the bottom of the relevant page. Over-numbering of references should be avoided: if, for example, one source is cited for several references within a paragraph, number this only once at the end of the paragraph. The use of notes should be kept to a minimum. Bibliographical references should always be given as notes. Separate bibliographies are not published.
Ibid. can be used to denote a work which was cited in the preceding note. Op. cit. should not be used; instead the reference should be repeated in truncated form (see below). In cases of joint authorship or editorship, '&' should be used (instead of 'and') between the names of the authors or editors.
In the case of books the following order should be observed: author, title, (publisher, year), page number(s). Where possible both the first name and surname should be given. Failing this, initials will be accepted. In subsequent notes the surname, title and page numbers should appear. Where a reference is made to an edited book, the author, chapter title, editors, book title and inclusive page numbers of the chapter should be cited. For example:
1. Karl Polanyi, The Great Transformation: The Political and Economic Origins of Our Time (Beacon Press, 1944), p. 20.
2. Polanyi, The Great Transformation, pp. 62-5.
3. Theda Skocpol, 'Bringing the State Back In: Strategies of Analysis in Current Research', in Peter Evans, Dietrich Rueschemeyer & Theda Skocpol (eds), Bringing the State Back In (Cambridge University Press, 1985), pp. 35-7.
4. Skocpol, 'Bringing the State Back In', p. 37.
In the case of articles, the following order should be observed: author (first name & surname where possible), title of article, name of journal, volume number, issue number, year (in brackets), and page numbers. For example:
1. Susan Strange, 'International Economics and International Relations: A Case of Mutual Neglect', International Affairs, Vol. 46, No. 2 (1970), pp. 304-15.
2. Strange, 'International Economics and International Relations', p. 310.
Unpublished theses, mimeographs, conference papers and reports also receive full references and should include the name of the appropriate institution. For example:
1. Dominic Kelly, Beyond the Political Economy of American Decline: A Critical Evaluation of the Reagan Administration, unpublished MA dissertation, Department of Politics, University of Sheffield, Sheffield, September 1993, p. 20.
2. Paul McAleavey, The Political Logic of the European Community Structural Funds Budget, EUI Working Papers Series (RSC No. 94/2), European University Institute, Florence, pp. 18-20.
3. Paul Teague, 'Between New Keynesianism and Deregulation: Employment Policy in the European Union', paper presented to the ESRC conference, The Evolution of Rules for a Single European Market, Exeter, September 1994, pp. 1-15.
For newspaper references, give the author, title, name of paper, date of issue and page number(s). Titles should be in lower-case. For example:
Will Hutton, 'Obituary notice for old-style economics', The Guardian, 21 March 1994, p. 15.
Citations of material drawn from the internet should include the author, title, any other information about the publication, full website address (beginning with http://), the date on which it was accessed, and page numbers if appropriate. For example:
1. World Social Forum, 'Charter of Principles', http://www.wsfindia.org/charter.php (accessed 21 January 2004).
2. Gary C. Hufbauer & Jeffrey J. Schott, 'The Prospects for Deeper North American Integration: A U.S. Perspective', CD Howe Institute Commentary, No. 95, January 2004,
http://www.iie.com/publications/papers/hufbauer0104.pdf (accessed 21 June 2005), p. 3.
House style: New Political Economy does not impose a rigid house style but we would prefer articles to conform to a few basic conventions outlined below. We stress the importance of three guidelines: common usage, consistency and, above all, clarity. The main points to remember are:
-ise spellings should be used wherever 's' and 'z' are alternatives.
single quotation marks should be used, with double for quotes within quotes; revert to single for quotes within quotes within quotes. Use no quotation marks around displayed extracts.
dates should be written 21 December 1971 and decades should be the 1970s without an apostrophe.
abbreviations consisting of capital, initial letters are usually expressed without full stops - GNP, EU. Contractions ending with the same letter as the original word do not take a terminal full stop (edn, Mr, Dr) but if they do not take the same letter then a full stop is included (ed., ch.). Thus ed. and eds are the correct forms. The abbreviations etc., i.e. and e.g. are usually best replaced by 'and so on', 'that is' and 'for example'.
numbers from one to nine should be written out in full; figures should be used for numbers above ten.
inclusive numbers should include the fewest possible figures: 32-3, 132-65, 200-5, except in 'teen' numbers, where the 1 is repeated, 1914-18.
per cent is spelt out in the text and the number preceding it appears in figures. The symbol (%) can be used in tables.
hyphenation is often optional and in many words it is being used less - for instance, microeconomic. However, consistency throughout the text is vital to avoid misunderstandings.
spelling and usage should be standardised to English rather than American forms, unless there is some risk of misunderstanding. For example, 'billion' is now more commonly used in its American form of a thousand million.
full stops are not needed after headings, sub-headings, and table and figure captions.
commas should be omitted before the final 'and' or 'or' in lists unless the concepts in the list are complicated and the comma aids clarity. Commas are usually unnecessary after adverbial phrases or conjunctions, especially when they begin a sentence - yesterday; at last; during the summer. Commas should not appear in relative clauses which are defining clauses but should appear in relative clauses which are commenting clauses - thus 'politicians who learn the rules of the game will succeed' contains a defining clause whereas 'politicians, who learn the rules of the game, will succeed' contains a commenting clause.
parentheses (or round brackets) should be used for simple interpolations, with square brackets used for editorial notes or interpolations in quotations.
quotations of more than five or six lines should be indented in the text (but still double-spaced). When this is done no quotation marks are needed, except where they appear in the original. Any words interpolated by the author in a quotation should be enclosed in square brackets [ ] to show that they are not part of the quoted matter.
Refereeing: New Political Economy is a peer refereed journal. All articles which are provisionally accepted by the Editors as being potentially suitable for New Political Economy will be sent to at least two referees.
Alterations and revisions: If the Editors are of the opinion that an article provisionally accepted for publication needs to be shortened or particular expressions deleted or rephrased, such proposed changes will be submitted to the author for approval prior to publication. Correction of errors in punctuation, spelling and style will not be submitted for approval if they do not alter the meaning or the sense of the original manuscript. Authors may be asked to resubmit articles in response to evaluation.
Proofs: Authors are expected to correct proofs of accepted articles within 48 hours of receipt.
Offprints: The corresponding author of each published article will receive a PDF of the article by e-mail. Up to 50 copies of this file can be distributed to colleagues. Alternatively, the corresponding author can opt to receive 50 offprints. Either way, the corresponding author will also receive a copy of the journal by post. Additional copies of the journal can be purchased at the author's preferential rate of ?5.00/$25.00 per copy. Offprints may take 3-4 weeks to deliver after publication.
Correspondence: All correspondence not concerning subscriptions should be addressed to the Editors at npe@sheffield.ac.uk, by fax to (0)114 222 1717, or by post to The Editors, New Political Economy, Political Economy Research Centre, University of Sheffield, Elmfield Lodge, Northumberland Road, Sheffield S10 2TY, UK.
