Manuscript Submissions. All submissions are processed via the journal's ScholarOne site.
Special lssues Submissions. The journal publishes special issues in its Supplements Series. Proposals for special issues should be sent to either of the journal's Special Issues Editors and should include a table of contents and one of more proposed guest editors.
Originality and Copyright. Manuscripts are accepted for review on the understanding that the same work has not been and will not be published nor is presently submitted for publication elsewhere. While under editorial review, it is the responsibility of the authors to keep the Editor informed about submissions, publication plans, and actual publication of related research or abstracts thereof in other outlets, including letters, journals, review publications, journals in other disciplines, conference proceedings, and published dissertations. It is further understood that all persons listed as authors have given their approval for the submission of the paper and that any person cited as a source of personal communication has approved such citation; written authorisation may be required at the Editor's discretion. Authors are responsible for obtaining written permission to publish material for which they do not own the copyright. A License to Publish, with certain specified rights reserved by the author, must be signed and returned to the Editor by a senior author of accepted manuscripts, prior to publication. This is necessary to enable the publisher to ensure the wide distribution of the author's(s') work and the protection of both the author and the publisher under copyright law. Articles and other material published in Macroeconomic Dynamics represent the opinions of the authors and should not be construed to reflect the opinions of the Editor, Advisory Board, Editorial Board, or the Publisher.
Licence to publish
Before Cambridge can publish your manuscript, we need a signed licence to publish agreement. Under the agreement, certain rights are granted to the journal owner which allow publication of the article. The original ownership of the copyright in the article remains unchanged. For full details see the publishing agreement page.
Offprints. The corresponding author will receive 25 free offprints of their article free of charge; additional numbers may be purchased if ordered at proof stage (an order form will be sent with proofs).
Publishing Ethics. This journal publishes in accordance with Cambridge University Press’s publishing ethics guidelines, which apply to authors, peer reviewers, the editorial office and the journal as a whole. Anyone who believes that these guidelines have not been followed should raise their concern with the editor or email publishingethics@cambridge.org.
Open Access Policies. Please visit our Open Access page for information on our open access policies, compliance with major finding bodies, and guidelines on depositing your manuscript in an institutional repository.
ORCID
We encourage authors to identify themselves using ORCID when submitting a manuscript to this journal. ORCID provides a unique identifier for researchers and, through integration with key research workflows such as manuscript submission and grant applications, provides the following benefits:
- Discoverability: ORCID increases the discoverability of your publications, by enabling smarter publisher systems and by helping readers to reliably find work that you have authored.
- Convenience: As more organisations use ORCID, providing your iD or using it to register for services will automatically link activities to your ORCID record, and will enable you to share this information with other systems and platforms you use, saving you re-keying information multiple times.
- Keeping track: Your ORCID record is a neat place to store and (if you choose) share validated information about your research activities and affiliations.
See our ORCID FAQs for more information. If you don’t already have an iD, you can create one by registering directly at https://ORCID.org/register.
ORCIDs can also be used if authors wish to communicate to readers up-to-date information about how they wish to be addressed or referred to (for example, they wish to include pronouns, additional titles, honorifics, name variations, etc.) alongside their published articles. We encourage authors to make use of the ORCID profile’s “Published Name” field for this purpose. This is entirely optional for authors who wish to communicate such information in connection with their article. Please note that this method is not currently recommended for author name changes: see Cambridge’s author name change policy if you want to change your name on an already published article. See our ORCID FAQs for more information.
