EUROMOD WP Series – Submission guidelines

CeMPA hosts the EUROMOD Working Paper Series as part of our commitment with the EUROMOD community. The aim is to disseminate research that makes use of EUROMOD-based models, including EUROMOD-EU, UKMOD and any other model powered by EUROMOD around the world.

The Working Papers constitute ‘work in progress’. They are published to stimulate discussion and encourage the exchange of ideas among researchers and policymakers.

Editorial policy

  • We welcome academic and policy-oriented analyses.
  • We expect complete, full-length research articles that, in principle, could be considered for publication in academic journals (typically 8-12 thousand words).
  • Papers must be written in good quality English.  
  • Corrections and revisions to published papers in our series (e.g. addendums) are only considered on an exceptional basis. For regular updates on specific analyses, we recommend alternative forms of publications (e.g. annexes to Country Reports, blog).
  • The manuscripts are not peer-reviewed. The editor will only check that the content is generally suitable for the series and may additionally make suggestions regarding the clarity of the paper.

The current editors of the series are listed here.

Before submitting your manuscript, please ensure that:

  • The first page contains the following information: title of paper, authors’ names and institutional affiliations, abstract (max 150 words), JEL classification codes, keywords (max 5), contact email of the corresponding author, the acknowledgement of financial support and micro-data used (if any).
  • The paper is written consistently in the UK or US English.
  • Tables and figures are not split across the pages (unless longer than 1 page).
  • Section headings are numbered.
  • The version of EUROMOD, which was used for the analysis, is clearly specified and relevant background papers cited (e.g. Sutherland and Figari, 2013).
  • All cited works have full bibliographic details provided at the end of the paper.

Manuscripts should be sent to the editors at euromod-wp@essex.ac.uk (in Word or PDF format).
