Author Guidelines

Authors are invited to submit original and high-quality manuscripts to the Government College Economic Journal (GCEJ). All submissions undergo an initial editorial screening to evaluate their relevance, originality, academic quality, and alignment with the journal’s aims and scope. Suitable manuscripts are then forwarded for a rigorous double-blind peer-review process before a final editorial decision is made.

Authors are responsible for obtaining permission to publish any copyrighted or third-party material included in the submission. All listed authors must approve the manuscript and consent to its submission. Where applicable, research must comply with relevant ethical standards and institutional approval requirements.

The editorial office reserves the right to desk-reject manuscripts that do not meet the journal’s minimum standards of quality, structure, language, and scholarly contribution. Authors are therefore encouraged to ensure that the manuscript is professionally prepared, with a clear research argument, concise title, and self-contained abstract. 

Once the manuscript is ready, please follow the submission checklist below before proceeding with submission. 

Submission Preparation Checklist

All submissions must meet the following requirements.

  • This submission meets the requirements outlined in the Author Guidelines.
  • This submission has not been previously published, nor is it before another journal for consideration.
  • All references have been checked for accuracy and completeness.
  • All tables and figures have been numbered and labeled.
  • Permission has been obtained to publish all photos, datasets, and other material provided with this submission.

Articles

  • Authors of original research should present an accurate account of the work performed as well as an objective discussion of its significance. Fraudulent or knowingly inaccurate statements constitute unethical behavior and are unacceptable.
  • Authors may be asked to provide the research data supporting their paper for editorial review and/or to comply with the open data requirements of the journal.
  • The authors should ensure that they have written entirely original works, and if the authors have used the work and/or words of others, then this has been appropriately cited or quoted, and permission has been obtained where necessary.
  • Plagiarism in all its forms constitutes unethical behavior and is therefore unacceptable in any form, i.e., from ‘passing off’ another’s paper as the author’s own paper, to copying or paraphrasing substantial parts of another’s paper (without attribution), to claiming results from research conducted by others.
  • Authorship should be limited to those who have made a significant contribution to the conception, design, execution, or interpretation of the reported study. All those who have made substantial contributions should be listed as co-authors.
  • Proper acknowledgment of the work of others must always be given. If there are others who have participated in certain substantive aspects of the paper (e.g., language editing or medical writing), they should be recognized in the acknowledgements section.
  • The corresponding author should ensure that all appropriate co-authors and no inappropriate co-authors are included on the paper.
  • When an author discovers a significant error or inaccuracy in their own published work, it is the author’s obligation to promptly notify the journal editor or publisher and cooperate with the editor to retract or correct the paper if deemed necessary by the editor.
