American Economic Review (AER) Guide
Evaluates manuscript fit, reframes contributions, and checks methodological standards for submission to the American Economic Review.
The American Economic Review skill provides specialized guidance for academic economists assessing manuscript readiness for the flagship journal of the American Economic Association. It encodes AER's high bar for general-interest questions, rigorous causal identification, structural modeling, and transparent data-code policies. Researchers can evaluate desk-reject heuristics, reframe field-specific findings to appeal to broad economics audiences, perform pre-submission self-checks, and find smart re-routing recommendations to sibling AEJ journals or top field venues.
