Manuscript Editing for Ethnic and Racial Studies Journal Articles
Ethnic and Racial Studies is an interdisciplinary international forum for research on race, racism, ethnicity, migration, and ethno-nationalism. Taylor & Francis publishes it under the Routledge imprint. It welcomes empirical and theoretical work from sociology, anthropology, political science, history, and other fields, and it particularly encourages scholars in the Global South.
A standard article runs no more than 9,000 words, including references and printed appendices. At first submission, references may follow any consistent author-date style, and the journal applies its Chicago author-date style after acceptance; footnote and endnote referencing are not permitted. Spelling may be US or UK English if consistent, while punctuation follows UK style, with no serial comma. The abstract runs up to 200 words, with six keywords. Review is double-anonymised by two or more referees. Off the Grid Editing converts note-based citations to author-date before you submit. Submissions go through ScholarOne.
Our Promise
We will ensure that the final draft you receive is completely ready to submit to Ethnic and Racial Studies. We work with you until it is ready or refund your payment in full. That commitment has held since 2002.

Manuscript Editing and Proofreading for Ethnic and Racial Studies
We offer three levels of manuscript editing depending on what your manuscript needs. Each is described below so you can choose the service that fits where your draft is right now.
Grammar and usage, awkward phrasing, repetition, and passive voice corrected, then clarity, concision, sentence structure, transitions, and tone, with your style manual applied throughout and a final proofread. For authors whose argument and structure are settled.
Clarity, emphasis, and paragraph structure: topic sentences, transitions, and sentences reordered within a paragraph, with every fact and claim kept as you wrote it. Includes copy editing and a final proofread.
Spelling, punctuation, typos, capitalization, grammar, and usage corrected with minimal wording changes, for manuscripts that have been edited and need a last check before submission to Ethnic and Racial Studies.
Taylor & Francis's instructions for authors cover length, references, and style. If you have reviewer comments from an earlier submission, send them with your manuscript and we will address each one. If you have questions about which service is right for your manuscript, contact us directly. We respond to every inquiry the same day during business hours.
