Authors should prepare and upload two versions of their manuscript. One should be a complete text, while in the second all document information identifying the author should be removed from files to allow them to be sent anonymously to referees. When uploading files authors will then be able to define the non-anonymous version as “File not for review”.
Submission of a paper implies that it presents original unpublished work, not under consideration for publication elsewhere. Submissions should be in English, with double spacing and wide margins (including notes and references). The title only should appear on the first page of the manuscript. Authors are requested to supply separately a short biographical notes for inclusion in the journal. Papers should address a research and academic audience and should seek to promote and develop our understanding of public management in an international perspective.
Public Management Review publishes these types of papers:
Articles
Articles
Substantive papers contributing to the deepening of theory about public management and/or our empirical knowledge of public management. About 5,000 - 8,000 words in length. These should be written as clearly and as concisely as possible, avoiding unnecessary jargon. They must be preceded by an abstract of not more than 100 words and between two and five key words suitable for indexing and on-line search purposes. Tables and figures should be presented on separate pages with their desired position in the text indicated in the margin of the manuscript. Permission to reproduce copyright material must be obtained by the authors before submission and any acknowledgements should be included in the typescript or captions as appropriate.
Reviews Section
These either review significant publications about public management from around the world, or review a cluster of publications on one aspect of public management. Around 1,000 – 1,500 words in length. (Book Reviews are dealt with through the Book Review Editors for PMR and they should be contacted directly in regard of these)

Proofs
Page proofs will be sent for correction to the first-named author, unless otherwise requested. The difficulty and expense involved in making amendments at the page proof stage make it essential for authors to prepare their typescripts carefully. Our aim is rapid publication: this will be helped if authors provide good copy.
