To the extent that they make a contribution to macroeconomics, papers in these fields are also welcome.

Submission, Publication, and Subscription for American Economic Journals
American Economic Journals are peer-reviewed journals. The submission fee is $100 for AEA members and $200 for nonmembers. The journals reserve the right to reject some papers on the basis of an initial screening by the editors, in which cases submission fees will be returned to authors. After initial screening of papers, the normal review process will be carried out following the same “double-blind” procedure used by the American Economic Review. Thus, authors should not be identified anywhere in the paper itself. To accelerate the decision process, authors of manuscripts previously reviewed by the AER may request that, subject to the referees' agreement, the full correspondence files of the AER referees (including cover letters as well as referees' reports) be shared with the editors of AEJs, who will have the discretion to make a decision based on these reports or to request additional reports.
AEJs will publish papers of varying length, although manuscripts exceeding 50 pages will rarely be published. The journals will not have separate sections of longer and shorter papers. Authors of published papers will have the right to republication in any work in any form, including digital repositories.
Members of the American Economic Association will have electronic access to all four AEJs, including pre-publication versions of accepted papers, through the Association website. (If you have not yet secured a password to the members-only website, and wish to do so, click here.)
All members will receive a complimentary print copy of the inaugural issue of each new journal. Members may continue receiving print copies of the American Economic Journals of their choice by requesting them at http://www.vanderbilt.edu/AEA/journal_selection.htm. Members will continue to receive complimentary print copies until their first membership renewal after December 2009. Thereafter, regular students and life members of the Association will be able to purchase print copies of the AEJs on an ongoing basis for $25 per year per journal (plus foreign postage where applicable) as part of the normal membership renewal process. Personal subscriptions to the American Economic Journals are not available independently of membership in the Association.
The American Economic Journal: Applied Economics will be published quarterly beginning 2009 (January, April, July and October). American Economic Journal: Economic Policy and American Economic Journal: Microeconomics will be published twice during 2009 (February and August) and quarterly beginning in 2010 (February, May, August and November). The American Economic Journal: Macroeconomics will be published twice in 2009 (January and July) and quarterly beginning 2010 (January, April, July and October).
