- The topic passed `arecon-topic-selection` and you want it considered for an ARE volume
arecon-topic-selection and you want it considered for an ARE volumeThis is the single most important difference from a normal journal — get it right or you waste months. ARE is commissioning-driven:
arecon-editor-strategy).Because you cannot manufacture an invitation, the closest controllable substitute is a one-to-two-page topic pitch that reads like the Committee's own reasoning: here is a field that has matured, here is why an adjacent economist needs a map of it now, here is the spine I would impose, and here is why I can write it fairly. Put your name in front of the Committee as the person who could write that review.
| Element | What it must do | Length guide |
|---|---|---|
| The field & animating question | State the literature and the question about it (from arecon-topic-selection) | ~1 paragraph |
| Why a synthesis is needed now | New evidence / method shift / policy salience; the adjacent-economist payoff | ~1 paragraph |
| The organizing spine | The taxonomy or analytical structure you would impose — not a chapter list | ~2–3 paragraphs |
| Coverage signal | The main research lines and key references you would weigh (breadth evidence) | a curated list |
| Provisional conclusions | Your read of what the field has settled and the open questions (the payoff) | ~1 paragraph |
| Your standing & balance | Why you can review this fairly, and how you will handle your own work even-handedly | ~2 sentences |

npx claudepluginhub brycewang-stanford/awesome-journal-skills --plugin annual-review-of-economics-skillsEvaluates fit and framing for Annual Review of Economics manuscripts, covering scope, evidence bar, and the invited-proposal route.
Guides users through the ARSoc commissioning process: how to suggest a topic and craft a Committee-ready pitch. Does not include literature synthesis or submission handling.
Evaluates whether a literature is ready for an Annual Review of Economics (ARE)-scale synthesis: mature, broadly important, needing accessible mapping, and tractable in ~25–40 pages. Routes unsuitable topics to alternative venues.
