Manuscript Editing for Journal of Race, Ethnicity, and Politics Articles
Founded in 2016, the Journal of Race, Ethnicity, and Politics publishes work on “the multiple junctures between politics and issues of race, ethnicity, immigration, and indigeneity.” Cambridge University Press publishes it for the Race, Ethnicity and Politics Section of APSA. Its editors are at San Diego State University and California State University, Sacramento.
Research articles run 9,000 to 11,000 words, counting tables, figures, references, and appendices, and research notes 3,000 to 5,000. Citations follow the APSA Style Manual, July 2020 revision, with parenthetical references and sparing endnotes for content. The abstract runs 200 words or fewer on a separate title page, and the anonymized manuscript begins with the text. Language editing is optional, and authors may have a native speaker check the manuscript. Off the Grid Editing applies APSA style and checks every reference. Submissions go through Editorial Manager. Articles accepted from March 2026 publish open access.
Our Promise
We will ensure that the final draft you receive is completely ready to submit to Journal of Race, Ethnicity, and Politics. We work with you until it is ready or refund your payment in full. That commitment has held since 2002.
Our editors do not have access to your manuscript until an order is placed. Your draft is secure until you decide to proceed.
Manuscript Editing and Proofreading for the Journal of Race, Ethnicity, and Politics
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 Race, Ethnicity, and Politics.
Cambridge's author instructions cover length, citations, and anonymity. 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.
See journal article and essay editing for how we edit scholarly articles, and academic proofreading for the last read before submission. If English is your second language, see English language editing for researchers. For books, see Cambridge University Press manuscript editing. We also prepare articles for Ethnic and Racial Studies and Perspectives on Politics.
