Author Guidelines

  1. MIJEB publishes scientific articles in fields of management, accounting and economics. Authors are encouraged to submit articles that are not under review in any other journals
  2. MIJEB seeks to publish critical and comprehensive research reports, studies, or scientific reviews on major and contemporary issues on the related subjects.
  3. Sent the article to the editor of the journal : [email protected]
  4. The title should be concise and effective and the word maximum is 10. The title should also suggest the keywords and wholly represent the article.
  5. The manuscript is placed on A4 papers with 4 cm left and top margins and 3 cm right and bottom margins. The manuscript is double columned with 6,5 cm width and 0,99 cm spacing.
  6. Readable copy for the purposes of peer review is set in a serif typeface (e.g., Times Roman or Corier) at a font no smaller than 11 points (we prefer 12). Manuscript text should be double spaced with margins of at least one inch all around the page. In addition to the main text, every submission must include (1) an abstract, (2) a reference list, and any (3) notes, (4) tables, or (5) figures mentioned in the text. A word count that includes text, notes, and references must be included in the cover letter. Articles should be between 3000 and 9000 words in length. This includes all text including references and appendices. Please allow 280 words for each figure or table. Please organize your paper so that the elements are gathered in this order: abstract, text, references, notes (if using endnotes rather than footnotes), figures, and tables. If your paper places figures and tables where they are discussed in the text rather than at the back of the manuscript, the MIJEB editorial board may decline to read it.
  7. Your abstract should be as close to 100 words as possible. It should include your research question, identify your data, and give some indication of your findings. Your abstract is likely to be sent by email to potential readers: giving an accurate and efficient statement of your project is likely to increase your chances of enlisting their aid. Unfocused, verbose abstracts may make it harder to place your paper with referees. Papers without an abstract cannot be sent to readers for peer review.
  8. MIJEB uses American Political Science Association’s Referencing style
  9. Tables should be numbered consecutively as they appear in text. MIJEB strongly prefers that authors number discrete items separately (table 1, 2, 3, 4, etc.) as opposed to grouping items together (tables 1, table 2a, 2b, 2c). Appendix tables are numbered table A1, A2, or table B1, B2, and so on. MIJEB frowns on the use of font in tables (i.e., bold or italic to mark a specific cell) and avoids the use of “panel” to refer to a specific group of table entries. AJS requires that you collect tables together at the back of your manuscript; do not place them where cited in the text.
  10. As is the case for tables, number figures consecutively. Select your typeface carefully: thick or very ornate letters and numbers can be difficult to read; likewise, san serif characters may be too thin for clarity. Check copy for overlapping or misspelled words. If your paper is accepted for publication, your figure will have to fit on a 26 by 42 pica surface, so it may be helpful to keep that size in mind as you create your initial artwork.
  11. MIJEB does not print color figures. Online-only content may include color in supplemental figures.
Generally, images will be crisper if you use text fill rather than gray scale for your figures
