- An editor invited you and you need to understand the working relationship
JEP is run by an editorial team led by editors and a long-serving managing editor, and is largely invited / commissioned (检索于 2026-06;以官网为准). As of 2026 the Editor is Heidi Williams; coeditors include Jeffrey Kling and Jonathan Parker; the Managing Editor is Timothy Taylor (long-tenured), with an assistant managing editor — re-confirm the roster on the official editors page before relying on names. Unlike a refereed research journal, JEP review is editor-driven and hands-on: the editors actively shape framing, accessibility, and length, often across several rounds, rather than dispatching to anonymous referees. Expect direct, substantive editorial guidance and a strong house preference for readability.
jep-proposal-and-symposium) define the assignment; large drifts need editor sign-off.jep-accessibility-and-translation and jep-narrative-arc.An invited author drafts a piece that has grown to JEL length because they tried to cover every paper in the field. The managing editor writes back: "This is more comprehensive than our readers need — make it an argument, not a census." The fix is not to defend the coverage but to return to jep-narrative-arc, pick the through-line, cut the exhaustive sections to a sentence each with a pointer to further reading, and protect the examples and exhibits that carry the argument. The reply to the editor is short: which sections were compressed, which were cut, and how the through-line is now visible by page two.
