Manuscript Editing for Feminist Criminology Journal Articles
Feminist Criminology publishes research on women, girls, and crime that applies a feminist critique to criminology, covering women as offenders, victims, and criminal justice workers. It is the official journal of the Division of Feminist Criminology of the American Society of Criminology. Sage publishes five issues a year, and its co-editors are at the University of Denver and Arizona State University.
Empirical, theoretical, and program or policy evaluation articles run up to 30 double-spaced pages, counting references, figures, and tables. Comments on articles from the previous six months run 2,500 words, and replies run 1,250 words. Manuscripts carry a 100-word abstract and a brief autobiographical sketch. References, tables, and figures follow the APA Publication Manual, 7th edition. Identifying information comes out before peer review by the editorial board and other scholars. Our editors fit the article to 30 pages and apply APA 7 throughout. Submissions go through SageTRACK.

Manuscript Editing and Proofreading for Feminist Criminology
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 Feminist Criminology.
Sage's manuscript submission guidelines cover article types, page limits, and references. 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.
Our legal editing services cover criminology and criminal justice research, where social science references and legal citations meet in the same paper. Academic proofreading covers the final read. If English is your second language, see English language editing for researchers. We also prepare articles for Victims & Offenders and Youth Violence and Juvenile Justice.
