Use when targeting International Economic Review (IER) or deciding whether a technically rigorous economics manuscript in theory, econometrics, or macro fits this venue. Encodes the journal's fit, framing, method-and-evidence bar, house style, official-submission re-check, and desk-reject heuristics.

# International Economic Review (international-economic-review) ## Journal positioning IER is a leading general-economics journal with particular strength in economic theory, econometrics, and macroeconomics, known for technical rigor. It rewards papers that make a clean, formal contribution — a theoretical result, a structural/econometric advance, or a quantitative-macro analysis executed with precision. The readership is technically oriented economists, so the bar is on rigor and the generality of the contribution, not on broad popular appeal. This skill is a **fit / venue-selection / re-framing** tool. It does not replace the journal's current official submission guidelines. Before submitting, re-check the live author instructions on the journal/Wiley site and the editorial submission system. ## When to trigger - The author names IER as the target venue, or wants a rigorous general-economics home for theory/econometrics/macro. - A technically demanding paper is excellent but narrower than a top-5 general-interest result. - A structural or theoretical paper needs re-framing so the formal contribution and its generality are foregrounded. - The author needs IER's desk-reject risks

How do I install it?
Run `npx skills add brycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-Skills --skill international-economic-review --agent claude-code` — it drops the skill into your project so the agent can pick it up. Swap the --agent value for codex, cursor or copilot if you use one of those.
Where does this skill come from?
From brycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-Skills, a repository with 909 stars. We read it straight from the repository tree rather than a submitted listing, so what you see here is what is actually published.
Is a popular skill a good skill?
Not necessarily. Stars measure attention, not adoption — a repository can trend for a week and be abandoned. That is why we show the weekly change from our own snapshots next to the total, instead of a single flattering number.
