The European Journal of Law and Economics is a premier academic publication dedicated to exploring the intersection of legal frameworks and economic principles. As one of the leading journals in Europe, it boasts particular strengths in analyzing how laws influence economic activities, market behavior, and public policy. The journal is internationally recognized for its contributions to the fields of law, economics, political science, and business studies, with a focus on European and global issues.
In keeping with the objectives of promoting the interdisciplinary understanding of law and economics, this journal is dedicated to advancing knowledge and awareness among scholars, policymakers, and professionals by providing a forum for the critical analysis of the intersection between legal frameworks and economic systems. Law and economics is a dynamic field, and we encourage scholarly submissions that address its evolving nature. This includes interdisciplinary and comparative work on the economic analysis of law, regulatory impacts on markets, and the legal implications of economic theories and practices.
We welcome submissions that explore the challenges and opportunities presented by legal-economic interactions, such as those that focus on the regulation of financial markets, economic development, intellectual property rights, competition law, and public policy. Consequently, this peer-reviewed journal publishes articles from various disciplines including, but not limited to, economics, law, political science, public policy, sociology, finance, international relations, business studies, and ethics.
The Publication Ethics and Malpractice Statement of this journal supports the combined efforts of authors, editors, and reviewers to produce responsible research publications. This statement is based on ethical principles that, in general, follow the guidelines established by the Committee on Publication Ethics (COPE).
Manuscripts submitted for publication must result from original and unpublished research. They must include the data obtained and used, along with an objective discussion of the results. Sufficient information must be provided to allow any specialist to repeat the research conducted and confirm or refute the interpretations presented in the work.
The Editorial Team will be impartial when handling manuscripts and must respect the intellectual independence of authors, who should be granted the right to reply in case of a negative evaluation.
Members of the Editorial Team are required to maintain confidentiality regarding the submitted manuscripts and their content until they have been accepted for publication. Only then may their title and authorship be disclosed.
Likewise, no member of the Editorial Board may use data, arguments, or interpretations contained in unpublished works for their own research without the express written consent of the author(s).
All submissions are initially evaluated by the Editorial Team. They are solely responsible for selecting, processing, and deciding which articles meet the journal's editorial objectives and are thus suitable for publication. Each document deemed appropriate is sent to two independent reviewers, experts in their field, capable of assessing the specific qualities of the work. The editor is responsible for the final decision on whether to accept or reject the manuscript.
The decision to publish an article is always based on its significance to researchers, professionals, and potential readers. Editors must make impartial decisions regardless of commercial considerations.
Editors involved in the final decisions must withdraw from editorial decisions if they have conflicts of interest or relationships that could present potential issues regarding the articles under consideration. Responsibility for the final decision on publication is assigned to an editor without conflicts of interest.
The Editorial Board ensures that published research has been evaluated by at least two experts and that the review process has been fair and impartial.
Reviewed articles are treated confidentially by members of the editorial team, international scientific committee, and reviewers.
The Editorial Board values and appreciates the contribution of those who participate in the evaluation of submitted manuscripts. It will refrain from using the services of reviewers who provide low-quality, incorrect, disrespectful, or untimely evaluations.
Under no circumstances will the editorial or scientific committee encourage misconduct of any kind or knowingly allow such behavior to occur.
The editorial and international scientific committee will attempt to prevent misconduct by informing authors and reviewers about the ethical behavior required of them.
Reviewers and members of the editorial and scientific committees are asked to be aware of all types of misconduct to identify documents in which such behavior may have occurred and handle complaints accordingly.
In cases of misconduct, the journal editor is responsible for resolving the issue. They may work in collaboration with the editorial and scientific committees, expert reviewers, and subject matter experts.
The issue will be documented accordingly. All factual questions must be documented: who, what, when, where, why. All relevant documents must be retained, especially the articles in question.
The editor will contact the author, giving them the opportunity to respond or comment on the complaint, allegation, or dispute.
If misconduct is found or suspected, or corrections are required, the editorial committee will handle the case following COPE recommendations.
Care will be taken to distinguish cases of honest human error from deliberate attempts to deceive.
The editorial board will consider retracting a publication in cases of misconduct, issuing a note in cases of inconclusive evidence, or requesting correction of the false segment.
Reviewers must be familiar with and take into account the editorial policy and the publication’s statement on ethics and malpractice.
The journal requires potential reviewers to have scientific or significant professional experience in a relevant field. They must have recently conducted research and/or work and be recognized by their peers. Reviewers must provide accurate personal and professional information that fairly represents their experience.
Additionally, all reviewers must withdraw if they know they are unqualified to evaluate a manuscript, believe their assessment will not be objective, or have a conflict of interest.
Reviewers should point out relevant published work not yet cited in the reviewed material. If necessary, the editor may issue a correction request in this regard. Reviewers are asked to identify documents in which research misconduct appears to have occurred and report them to the editorial committee, which will handle each case accordingly.
Members of the editorial team and reviewers must withdraw in cases of conflict of interest with an author or manuscript under evaluation. All conflicts of interest between authors, reviewers, and members of the editorial and scientific teams must be avoided.
