Manuscript Editing for Journal of International Criminal Justice Articles
Since 2003, the Journal of International Criminal Justice has aimed “to promote a profound collective reflection on the new problems facing international law.” It approaches justice through law, criminology, penal philosophy, and the history of international judicial institutions, for academics, practitioners, and officials alike. Oxford University Press publishes it.
Articles run 3,000 to 10,000 words, abstract and footnotes included, and up to 15,000 in exceptional cases. Citations follow the journal's own style sheet in single-spaced footnotes, and the guidelines note that “Heavy footnoting is discouraged.” An abstract in English opens the article. Review is double-anonymised, typically by two reviewers. Off the Grid Editing trims heavy footnotes and applies the style sheet. Submissions go through ScholarOne.

Manuscript Editing and Proofreading for the Journal of International Criminal Justice
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 Journal of International Criminal Justice.
Oxford's author guidelines link the journal's style sheet. 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.
