JLEO Workflow Router (jleo-workflow)
Overview
This is the router. It tells you which jleo- skill to use at the current stage* of a manuscript aimed at The Journal of Law, Economics, and Organization (JLEO) — the Oxford University Press journal founded in 1985 by Oliver E. Williamson and Jerry L. Mashaw at Yale, and the flagship outlet of the law-economics-organization tradition: transaction-cost economics, the theory of the firm, contracts and governance, and positive political economy (courts, legislatures, bureaucracies, federalism as institutions in the North–Weingast–Williamson line). It publishes both formal-theoretical and empirical work, triannually; Andrea Prat is Editor-in-Chief (检索于 2026-06；以官网为准).
Default assumption: unless the user says otherwise, treat the target as JLEO. Operational tells that you are at JLEO and not a sibling: the paper's payoff is an institutional or organizational claim, not a price-theory or pure-doctrine one; the question is "how does this governance structure / institution / political mechanism work and why does it take the form it does," and the contribution speaks to the new-institutional / PPE community. Submission is via the Editorial Express portal (editorialexpress.com/jleo); OUP is the publisher; the journal is COPE-compliant. Re-verify volatile specifics (editor, fees, exact limits, blinding) on the official OUP pages.
When to trigger
- The user asks "what should I do next?" on a JLEO-bound manuscript
- A draft needs its current bottleneck diagnosed against the law-economics-organization bar
- Work is ping-ponging between framing, theory/model, identification, exhibits, and the response letter
- A JLEO decision letter arrived and the user needs to switch into revision mode
- The team is unsure whether the paper belongs at JLEO versus JLE, JLS, ALER, QJPS, or Organization Science
Routing table
| Current symptom | Next skill |
|---|---|
| Scope/fit uncertain; might be price-theory L&E or pure org-theory | jleo-topic-selection |
| Contribution vs. the institutional/PPE frontier is fuzzy or undersold | jleo-literature-positioning |
| Causal credibility (reform, court/committee assignment, institutional variation) is shaky | jleo-identification |
| The institutional/organizational model or mechanism is loose or decorative | jleo-theory-model |
| Results may be specification-, sample-, or inference-sensitive | jleo-robustness |
| Exhibits are dense or do not answer the institutional question | jleo-tables-figures |
| Prose buries the institutional logic; intro/abstract do not land | jleo-writing-style |
| Data, code, or institutional-source documentation needs packaging | jleo-replication-package |
| Likely referee objections should be anticipated before submitting | jleo-referee-strategy |
| Ready to submit via Editorial Express; need a preflight | jleo-submission |
| A decision letter or referee report needs a response plan | jleo-rebuttal |
Default order
jleo-topic-selection— lock a law-economics-organization question, not a sibling'sjleo-literature-positioning— stake the contribution vs. the institutional/PPE frontierjleo-identification— institutional/organizational causal design where the paper is empiricaljleo-theory-model— the transaction-cost / agency / political-agency model that gives the claim teethjleo-robustness— threat-organized checks, not a mechanical appendixjleo-tables-figures— exhibits that show the institutional comparison cleanlyjleo-writing-style— make the institutional logic land (intro + abstract last)jleo-replication-package— institutional/organizational/political data paths and codejleo-referee-strategy— anticipate the institutional-economist refereejleo-submission— Editorial Express preflightjleo-rebuttal— after the decision letter
jleo-writing-styleis a late-stage polish; do not rewrite the intro before the model and identification settle. Theory and empirics co-evolve at JLEO —jleo-theory-modelandjleo-identificationoften loop.
Routing by paper archetype
JLEO accepts several shapes, and the binding constraint differs by shape. Read the archetype, then enter the chain at the right link.
| Archetype | Likely first bottleneck | Enter at |
|---|---|---|
| positive political economy model (legislature/court/bureaucracy) | comparative statics + an empirical or institutional test | jleo-theory-model → jleo-identification |
| transaction-cost / make-or-buy / governance-choice empirics | selection into governance form; endogenous boundaries | jleo-identification |
| contracts & theory of the firm (formal) | a sharp, novel mechanism vs. the canon | jleo-theory-model |
| institutions & reform (causal) | reform/assignment as a credible design, not OLS+controls | jleo-identification |
| organizational governance / personnel inside firms | mechanism + measurement of the organizational object | jleo-topic-selection → jleo-theory-model |
Sibling boundaries (why JLEO and not its neighbors)
- vs. Journal of Law and Economics (JLE, Chicago): JLE is price-theory law-and-economics — antitrust, regulation, crime, empirical effects of legal rules on markets. JLEO adds organization: governance structures, the firm, and the political institutions that make and enforce rules. If the payoff is a market effect of a rule, lean JLE; if it is why the institution/organization takes this form, lean JLEO.
- vs. Journal of Legal Studies (JLS): JLS is broader law-and-economics with more doctrinal/legal-theory range; JLEO is tighter on institutions, organization, and PPE.
- vs. Quarterly Journal of Political Science (QJPS) / American Political Science Review: those are political-science homes for PPE; JLEO welcomes PPE but frames it as institutional economics with formal or empirical economics standards.
- vs. American Law and Economics Review (ALER): ALER is the AALEA's broad L&E outlet; JLEO is more organization- and governance-centric.
- vs. Organization Science: Org Science is management/org-theory (behavioral, sociological); JLEO is economics of organization (transaction costs, agency, formal incentives).
Anti-patterns
- Treating JLEO as interchangeable with JLE (price-theory) or Organization Science (org-theory)
- Submitting a pure reduced-form market study with no institutional/organizational object as the payoff
- Polishing prose before the model and identification are stable
- Letting an appendix carry the institutional claim the main text must establish
- Quoting volatile process facts (editor, fee, blinding) as permanent instead of marking 待核实
