Manuscript Editing for Indian Journal of Gender Studies Articles
The Indian Journal of Gender Studies seeks a holistic understanding of society by analysing gender categories with a view to changing social attitudes and academic biases. Its subjects include violence, the social organisation of the family, the invisibility of women's work, and institutional and policy analysis. Women and politics, motherhood, and child care are also central. Sage publishes it three times a year in association with the Centre for Women's Development Studies in New Delhi, where both editors are based.
Articles run no more than 8,000 words and research notes no more than 3,000, counting notes and references; book reviews run up to 1,500 words. References follow Sage's APA guidelines, and every in-text citation matches the reference list in spelling and year. An unstructured abstract of 150 to 200 words sits between title and text, followed by at least four to six keywords. The manuscript is fully anonymized, with a separate title page carrying identifying details and a Statements and Declarations section. Authors send an undertaking that the article is under consideration nowhere else. Review is double-anonymized, with two independent reviews. Submissions go by email to the editorial team at the Centre for Women's Development Studies.

Manuscript Editing and Proofreading for the Indian Journal of Gender 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 Indian Journal of Gender Studies.
Sage's submission guidelines cover length, abstracts, and anonymization. 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 journal article and essay editing page explains how we edit gender studies scholarship, and academic proofreading is the final pass. If English is your second language, see English language editing for researchers. We also prepare articles for Atlantis and AlterNative.
