Each volume of Critical Issues is limited to approximately 100,000 words (16-19 manuscripts) and has a theme approach.  The theme for each volume is determined after the manuscript review process is complete. Readers of Critical Issues include academics, policy makers, accountants, lawyers, and economists.

Manuscripts accepted for publication in Critical Issues deal with insights and analysis for achieving environmental goals through tax policy.  Manuscripts submitted for possible publication are reviewed by two external reviewers and should deal with topics that are timely and of regional, national, or international interest.  Authors of accepted manuscripts will receive one copy of the publication.

Final versions of manuscripts accepted for publication in Critical Issues should meet the following requirements in addition to any requirements described in a letter of acceptance.

Format. All manuscripts are limited to a maximum of 6,000 words including footnotes, tables, figures, etc. Each table will count as 300 words and each figure will count as 500 words.  References are to be placed at the end of the manuscript as endnotes.  All manuscripts must be double-spaced, including endnotes, using Microsoft Word format (Times New Roman 11).
