Editorial Policy
All submitted manuscripts are subject to initial appraisal and screening by the Editor-in-Chief, and, if found suitable for further consideration, will enter peer review by independent, anonymous expert referees. We use a double-blind peer review process. Full length articles, letters, brief communications, matters arising, technical reports, field notes, analysis, perspectives and insights are all peer reviewed. Correspondence and all forms of published correction may also be peer-reviewed at the discretion of the editors.

Reviewer selection is critical to the publication process, and we base our choice on many factors, including but not limited to expertise, reputation, specific recommendations and our own previous experience of a reviewer's characteristics.

In general, to be acceptable, a paper should represent an advance in understanding likely to influence thinking in economics, with strong evidence for their conclusions. There should be a discernible reason why the work deserves the visibility of publication in the Ghanaian Journal of Economics.

Plagiarism Policy
The Ghanaian Journal of Economics has a zero-tolerance policy to unethical act of copying or plagiarism in any form. All manuscripts submitted for publication to the journal are cross-checked for plagiarism using Turnitin software. Manuscripts found to be plagiarized during initial stages of review are out-rightly rejected and not considered for publication in the journal. In case a manuscript is found to be plagiarized after publication, the Editor-in-Chief will conduct preliminary investigation, may be with the help of a suitable committee constituted for the purpose. If the manuscript is found to be plagiarized beyond the acceptable limits, the paper would be retracted. We reserve the right to decline publication of a paper even after it has been accepted if it becomes apparent that there are serious problems with the scientific content or violations of our publishing policies.
