Instructions to Authors
Instructions to Authors
Please follow British spelling throughout (authors who are accustomed to writing in American English can retain American spelling).
Please keep in mind that your texts and tables will be typeset and that all graphs will be redone in the Ifo format. Please do the tables in MS Word format and provide the data for the graphs in an MS Excel file.
1 Text
Please avoid any form of block-settings, line breaks or print-formatting. Do not use ligatures.
1.1 Length
Unless otherwise agreed, manuscripts should be about 20-25 pages, double-spaced, not counting tables and figures.
1.2 Footnotes
Notes serve to provide supplementary information and are therefore to be used sparingly. Notes are to be indicated in the text by exponents without parentheses.
1.3 Sources and bibliographical references in text
Sources and bibliographical references should be given in the text itself according to the author-date (or Harvard) style of referencing, with the author’s or editor’s surname together with the year of publication and the page or pages, all enclosed in parentheses. Page numbers are to be separated by a medium-length en-dash (?.
When multiple works by the same author within the same year are cited, the letters "a", "b", "c" etc. should follow the dates. Instead of the abbreviation "ff.", the exact page specifications are to be given.
Example:
(Jones 1981a, pp. 55?8 ).
It is also acceptable to cite the author with only the remaining information parenthesised.
As Jones (1981a, pp. 413?6 ) stated ...
For co-authored works, the names are to be separated by "and"; when there are three authors, the first and second are separated by a comma, the second and third by "and" without a comma. When there are more than three authors, the first author is given, followed by the abbreviation "et al". If two references are necessary, they are separated by a semicolon. Examples:
(Miyamoto and Takemura 1990, p. 427)
(Ariyoshi, Takemura and Tanaka 1984, pp. 23?9 )
(Kenwood et al. 1979, p. 65)
(Kollo 1998; Kagami 1998)
1.4 Anonymous essays
Anonymous essays in newspapers and non-scientific magazines should be cited by giving the name of the newspaper, with the date of publication and the page number(s). Example:
(Handelsblatt 22 July 1995, p.15)
2 Incorporating house style
2.1 Quotations
Quotations must appear as in the original and should not be changed. Use double quotation marks with singles for quotes within quotes. Interpolated words should be enclosed in square brackets to show that they are not part of the quoted matter. Punctuation should be within quotation marks if a compete sentence is quoted. Final punctuation will be outside quotation marks if the quotation forms only part of a sentence.
2.2 Dates
Dates should be written 18 August 1996, decades should be written in numbers (e.g. 1970s) and not in letters (e.g. seventies). No apostrophe should be used. Dates should be elided to the last two digits 1977?8.
2.3 Abbreviations
Abbreviations consisting of capital letters do not have full stops (GNP, USA, US). For abbreviating United States either as a noun or an adjective, use "US" without full stops. Contractions ending with the same letter as the original word do not take terminal full stops (St, Mr, Dr).
Abbreviations where the last letter of the singular word is not included take a full stop (vol., vols./ed., eds.). The abbreviation for number is no./nos. Abbreviated unit of measurements do not take a full stop (lb, mm, kg) and do not take a final 's' in the plural.
2.4 Numbers
Numbers one to ten are expressed in words, but 11 upward appear in figures, unless used in general terms. Example: "about a hundred people". Wherever a unit of measurement is used, the number preceding it appears in figures, unless it is used in a very general sense: "hundreds of miles".
2.5 Percent
In text, percent should be spelled out and the number should appear in figures: 54 percent. In tables the % symbol may be used.
2.6 Hyphenation
In general, the hyphen is now used less frequently in compound terms, for example, "microeconomic", but note the adjectival hyphen in "a twentieth-century author".
2.7 Headings
Headings, sub-headings, table headings and figure captions should not have full stops.
2.8 Currencies
Currencies should be indicated consistently applying the conventional abbreviation of the European Central Bank: JPY, EUR, USD. Use before the numbers with a space: USD 1.2 billion. The symbols €, ?and ?are also permissible, especially in Tables. The dollar sign $ can be used if it is clear from the context that the US dollar is intended.
3. Bibliographical references
In the bibliography at the end of the paper, all of the cited works are to be given in alphabetical order. In the case of two or more works by a single author, the order should be chronological. When a single work has more than one author, it should be listed under the name of the first author, but after the individual publications of this author. Personal names should be abbreviated. Surnames should be separated from personal names by a comma. Please include the publisher of the book as well.
