# Journal of Law, Economics, and Organization (journal-of-law-economics-and-organization)

## Journal positioning

JLEO is the leading journal at the intersection of law, economics, and organization, publishing positive political theory, the economics of contracts and institutions, and organizational economics. It rewards papers — theoretical or empirical — that explain how legal rules, political institutions, and organizational arrangements shape behavior and outcomes. The readership spans economists, political scientists, and organizational scholars working in the institutions-and-organizations tradition, so a paper must carry a genuine law-economics-organization contribution, not a single-discipline result.

This skill is a **fit / venue-selection / re-framing** tool. It does not replace the journal's current official submission guidelines. Before submitting, re-check the live author instructions on the journal/Oxford University Press site and the editorial submission system.

## When to trigger

- The author names JLEO as the target venue, or wants a home at the law–economics–organization intersection.
- A paper analyzes contracts, institutions, political institutions, or organizational form with economic tools.
- A positive-political-theory or organizational-economics paper needs re-framing so the institutions-and-organization contribution is foregrounded.
- The author needs JLEO's desk-reject risks and a credible institutions / organization alternative list.
