Submission Policies

The editors reserve the right to determine the suitability of submissions. For additional information, please contact the editors.

Open Access Policy

This is an open access journal which means that all content is freely available without charge to the user or his/her institution (no APCs). Users are allowed to read, download, copy, distribute, print, search, or link to the full texts of the articles, or use them for any other lawful purpose, without asking prior permission from the publisher or the author.

All eScholarship content may be browsed and downloaded at no cost and with no access restrictions. Beginning with issue 6:2, Cliodynamics articles are available for sharing and reuse under a Creative Commons Attribution (CC BY) 4.0 International License.

Removal

Once published, a journal article cannot generally be revised or removed. We feel it is important to provide perpetual access to materials published whenever possible and appropriate. However, we will remove publications under special circumstances, including in the case of submission errors, rights violations, or inappropriate content. Please be aware, however, that even after the removal of a work, a citation to the work will remain in our system, along with a URL.

If you would like your work removed from eScholarship, please contact the editors.

Revising Work

Once manuscripts are published, we are generally unable to revise them. If a significant error or omission is discovered, contact the editors.

Long-term Preservation Policy

All materials submitted to eScholarship are automatically deposited in CDL's Merritt Preservation Repository for long-term preservation.

Ethics Statement

Cliodynamics maintains high standards for ethical behavior in its publishing. It also requires ethical behavior of its reviewers and authors. To that end, we adhere to the following standards, as advocated by Wager & Kleinert (2011) and quoted here:

  • The research being reported should have been conducted in an ethical and responsible manner and should comply with all relevant legislation.
  • Researchers should present their results clearly, honestly, and without fabrication, falsification or inappropriate data manipulation.
  • Researchers should strive to describe their methods clearly and unambiguously so that their findings can be confirmed by others.
  • Researchers should adhere to publication requirements that submitted work is original, is not plagiarized, and has not been published elsewhere.
  • Authors should take collective responsibility for submitted and published work.
  • The authorship of research publications should accurately reflect individuals’ contributions to the work and its reporting.
  • Funding sources and relevant conflicts of interest should be disclosed.
