Author Guidelines

GENERAL INFO

Submissions should conform to the aims and scope of the journal.
All papers submissions should be made using journal website sceco.ub.ro. All correspondence, including notification of the Editor’s decision and requests for revision, takes place electronically through the journal system.
Papers must be written in English (U.S.) and must be original. Papers which meet the aims and scope of the journal will be subject to blind review. To allow for this blinded review, authors are required to provide files that are free from author-identifying information. You will be asked to enter your contact details during the online submission process and present them in a title page that is not shared with reviewers.


REGULAR STRUCTURE OF THE PAPER

Title
The title must be concise and informative. Titles are often used in information-retrieval systems. Avoid abbreviations and formulae where possible.

Author names and affiliations
Present the authors' affiliation (where the actual work was done). Also provide the e-mail address of each author.

Corresponding author (within submission process)
Clearly indicate who will handle correspondence at all stages of refereeing and publication, also post-publication. Contact details must be kept up to date by the corresponding author.

Abstract
A concise and factual abstract with the length between 150 and 200 words is required. The abstract should state briefly the purpose of the research, the principal results and major conclusions. An abstract is often presented separately from the article, so it must be able to stand alone. For this reason, References should be avoided, but if essential, then cite the author(s) and year(s). Also, non-standard or uncommon abbreviations should be avoided, but if essential they must be defined at their first mention in the abstract itself.

Keywords
Keywords (five to seven) are also required. There is no point repeating words that are in the title. Please be sparing with abbreviations: only abbreviations firmly established in the field may be eligible. These keywords will be used for indexing purposes. Use semicolon between them.

Classification Codes
Also JEL (Journal of Economic Literature) classification code is required. Find this classification at http://ideas.repec.org/j/

Body
See the Journal template.

References
Footnotes are kept to a minimum and be numbered consecutively. Styles for within text citation and final references can be found in Journal Template.


PAPER FORMAT
The paper must be in MS Word format, Size B5 (JIS), Margins: Top 2 cm, Bottom 2 cm, Right/Left 3 cm, Font: Times New Roman. Find all this within the file Journal Template.
