About the journal
The Journal of Law, Economics, and Organization is an interdisciplinary exercise. It seeks to promote an understanding of many complex phenomena by examining such matters from a combined law, economics, and organization perspective (or a two-way combination thereof). In this connection, we use the term organization broadly - to include scholarship drawing on political science, psychology and sociology, among other fields. It also holds the study of institutions - especially economic, legal, and political institutions - to be specifically important and greatly in need of careful analytic study.

All accepted manuscripts, however, must be revised by the author to conform to the style sheet. All material, including footnotes and references, should be double-spaced, with 1?inch margins. Footnotes should also be double spaced, numbered sequentially, and placed at the end of the text.

ABSTRACT
An abstract of not more than 150 words should accompany each manuscript.
SECTION HEADINGS
The first section of the paper can be "1. INTRODUCTION" or it can be unheaded, in which case the next section would be labeled 1.
EQUATIONS
Equation numbers should be flush right at the end of displayed equations. All displayed equations need not be numbered, only those you will refer to in text.
Equations in the main body of the paper should be numbered (1), (2), (3), etc.
Equations within the appendixes should be numbered (A1), (A2), (A3), etc., in Appendix A (or in the only appendix); (B1), (B2), (B3), etc., in Appendix B; and so on.
APPENDIXES
Appendixes should appear after the main text and before the footnotes.
If there is more than one appendix, they should be designated Appendix A, Appendix B, etc.
FOOTNOTES
All footnotes should be numbered sequentially (do not use 1a, 1b), should be double spaced, and placed in one section following the text. They should contain only substantive comments and additional references not immediately relevant to the text. Mere citations, regardless of number, should be incorporated in the text, as shown above. The first footnote (unnumbered) can contain whatever acknowledgments and thanks the author thinks necessary (Example 1). Information on field interviews should appear only in footnotes (Example 3).

I wish to thank X, Y, and Z for their able editorial assistance and the ABC Foundation for its generous financial support.
