# JEG Workflow Router (jegeo-workflow)

## Overview

This is the router. It tells you **which jegeo-* skill to use at the current stage** of a manuscript aimed at the *Journal of Economic Geography* (JEG) — Oxford University Press's flagship for the **bridge between economics and geography**: agglomeration and clusters, regional and urban development, the economic geography of trade and global value chains, innovation and knowledge spillovers, institutions and space, evolutionary economic geography, and the location of firms and people.

The fact that defines JEG and every routing decision below: the journal deliberately spans **two communities** — "geographical economics" (the formal, quantitative New Economic Geography lineage of Krugman, Fujita, Venables, and the quantitative-spatial-model literature) AND "proper economic geography" (the institutional, evolutionary, and qualitative tradition of human geographers). Its masthead is drawn roughly equally from both (检索于 2026-06;以官网为准: EICs include Bathelt, Behrens, Coe, Iammarino, Kerr). A paper that speaks to only one community is the single most common desk-reject. Route accordingly: every stage must be defensible to an economist AND legible to a geographer.

Operational tells that you are at JEG and not a sibling: submission is via **ScholarOne / Manuscript Central** (`mc.manuscriptcentral.com/joeg`); review is **double-anonymous** (strip author identity); the **data/replication policy is encouragement-based and post-acceptance**, NOT a mandatory pre-acceptance archive (that distinguishes it sharply from QE, AEJ, and the AEA journals); standard articles run **≤8,000 words excluding references** with overflow pushed to an online appendix. Re-verify volatile specifics on the OUP page.

## When to trigger

- A manuscript is aimed at JEG and the next bottleneck is unclear
- A draft is ping-ponging between framing, design, mechanism, exhibits, and submission checks
