IJGE uses the Harvard (name and date) short reference system for citations in the text with a detailed alphabetical list at the end of the paper.For example "Hamel (2000) suggests ....................................."
Articles without correct references will be returned for further work and will not be sent out for review.Articles not in word format will also be returned for conversion to word.
If you feel you would like to publish with us first in a less academic journal to try out your writing skills then please do submit your article to The Green Economist by sending to GEIbooksandjournal@yahoo.co.uk but mark in the title of the email clearly for which journal it is intended.
I look forward to receiving your abstracts, ideas and articles.
