There is still plenty of time to submit a paper to fit the current REF
timeframe. Papers would need to be submitted by Summer 2012 to be
confident, if accepted, of being counted; though we also anticipate that
many papers submitted by early 2013 at the latest will, if accepted and
subject to the review process, be published in electronic form by the
census date. Policy & Politics ensures the highest standards of peer review
and has a quick decision making process therefore work of a high quality is
published quickly. We look forward to receiving your papers.
