Submitting to Politics & Gender: Advice from the Editors

For nearly 20 years, Politics & Gender has been a leading outlet for research on women, gender, and politics. As past and current editors,¹ we are happy to share our advice for early career researchers interested in submitting manuscripts to the journal. We believe that as the official journal of the Women, Gender, and Politics Section of the American Political Science Association, the content of Politics & Gender should reflect the diversity of authors, methods, and topics found across the broader gender and politics research community. However, not all authors have the full information on how to best prepare their manuscripts—or, indeed, what to expect during different parts of the review process (see Anlar and Phillips 2023).
