NOTES FOR CONTRIBUTORS
The Journal of Economic and Industrial Democracy has a fully web-based system for the submission and review of manuscripts. All submissions should be made online at the EID SAGETRACK website
Please log onto the website. If you are a new user, you will first need to create an account. This is a three-step system that takes a matter of minutes to set up. Log-in information is sent via email immediately upon completion. Full instructions for uploading the manuscript are provided on the website. If you have already created an account but have forgotten your details type your email address in the 'Password Help' to receive an emailed reminder. Submissions should be made via the Author Center and the 'Click here to Submit a New Manuscript' option. For questions and a user guide, please use the 'Get Help Now' button at the top right of every screen. Further help is available through ScholarOne's® Manuscript CentralTM customer support at +1 434-817-2040 x 167. If you would like to discuss your paper prior to submission, please contact the the associate editor, Ann-Britt Hellmark, at the following email address: Ann-Britt.Hellmark@ekhist.uu.se
Please ensure that your Microsoft Word or RTF document does NOT include a title page, an abstract, or page numbers; the EID SAGETRACK system will generate them for you, and then convert your manuscript to PDF for peer review. Furthermore, it is imperative that authors remove from their submissions any information that will identify them or their affiliations to reviewers. All correspondence, including notification of the Editor's decision and requests for revisions, will be by email.
Revisions
Authors submitting revised manuscripts should follow the instructions above to submit through the SAGETRACK system. However, if the first versions were submitted prior to SAGETRACK, the system will not know automatically about the previous version. In such cases, authors should check the 'Has this manuscript been submitted previously?' box and give the previous manuscript number in the space below. (If the previous version was submitted through the SAGETRACK system, following the instructions to submit a revised manuscript will automatically associate your revised version with the original submission) Authors of all revised submissions should when prompted provide information explaining the changes in your manuscript. As this will be provided to reviewers it is important that authors do not identify themselves in these responses.
General guidelines
1. Articles should be between 5000 and 10,000 words long. Exceptionally, longer articles may be considered for publication in two or more parts.
2. Authors should prepare an approximately 100-word abstract of their article plus five or six keywords - these should not be words used in the article title.
3. The Editors may alter manuscripts wherever necessary to make them conform to the stylistic and bibliographic conventions of the journal.
4. Contributors are asked to pay careful attention to the following important points of detail. Use notes for discursive comments, not for documentation. Notes should be referred to in the text by numerical superscripts. The following sample citations illustrate other aspects of the journal style, and should be closely studied:

Greene AM, Black J, and Ackers P (2000) The union makes us strong: A study of the dynamics of workplace union organisation at two manufacturing plants. British Journal of Industrial Relations 38(1): 75-95.

5. The corresponding author will receive page proofs for checking. He or she will be given controlled access to a PDF of the article and a complimentary copy (per author) of the whole issue after publication.
