About the journal
The international, interdisciplinary journal Mathematical Social Sciences publishes original research, survey papers and short notes, as well as news items, abstracts and book reviews. The journal emphasizes the unity of mathematical modelling in economics, psychology, political sciences, sociology and other social sciences. Papers published by the journal are mathematically rigorous but no bounds, from above or from below, limits their technical level. Mathematical techniques include, but are not limited to: axiomatic methods, combinatorial methods, graph theory and ordered structures, lattices and Boolean algebra, probability and statistics, functional analysis and fixed points, differential equations, dynamical and/or stochastic systems, optimization, control theory. Topics of particular interest include individual choice and preference, decision under risk and uncertainty, collective choice and preferences, consensus theory, the measurement of utility, of social welfare, of inequality, distributive justice, the equilibrium of socioeconomic systems, game theory, evolutionary models, social networks, fair division and cost allocation, voting rules and implementation theory, team theory, and planning.

Submission of a paper will be held to imply that it contains original unpublished work and is not being submitted for publication elsewhere. The Editor does not accept responsibility for damage or loss of papers submitted. Upon acceptance of an article, author(s) will be asked to transfer copyright of the article to the publisher. This transfer will ensure the widest possible dissemination of information.
(3) Submission of accepted papers as electronic manuscripts, i.e., on disk with accompanying manuscript, is encouraged. Electronic manuscripts have the advantage that there is no need for rekeying of text, thereby avoiding the possibility of introducing errors and resulting in reliable and fast delivery of proofs.
The preferred storage medium is a 5.25 or 3.5 inch disk in MS-DOS format, although other systems are welcome, e.g., Macintosh (in this case, save your file in the usual manner; do not use the option "save in MS-DOS format''). Do not submit your original paper as electronic manuscript but hold on to disk until asked for this by the Editor (in case your paper is accepted without revisions). Do submit the accepted version of your paper as electronic manuscript. Make absolutely sure that the file on the disk and the printout are identical. Please use a new and correctly formatted disk and label this with your name; also specify the software and hardware used as well as the title of the file to be processed. Do not convert the file to plain ASCII. Ensure that the letter 'l' and digit '1', and also the letter 'O' and digit '0' are used properly, and format your article (tabs, indents, etc.) consistently. Characters not available on your word processor (Greek letters mathematical symbols, etc.) should not be left open but indicated by a unique code (e.g. gralpha, ,alpha ., @, etc., for the Greek letter a). Such codes should be used consistently throughout the entire text; a list of codes used should accompany the electronic manuscript. Do not allow your word processor to introduce word breaks and do not use a justified layout. Please adhere strictly to the general instructions below on style, arrangement and, in particular, the reference style of the journal.
(4) Manuscripts should be double spaced, with wide margins, and printed on one side of the paper only. All pages should be numbered consecutively. Titles and subtitles should be short. References, tables, and legends for the figures should be printed on separate pages.
(5) The first page of the manuscript should contain the following information:
(i) the title;
(ii) the name(s) and institutional affiliation(s) of the author(s);
(iii) an abstract of not more than 100 words.
A footnote on the same sheet should give the name, address, and telephone and fax numbers of the corresponding author (as well as an e-mail address).
(iv) At least one classification code according to the Classification System for Journal Articles as used by the Journal of Economic Literature (if you are not familiar with this classification scheme, the editor will add a code for you)
(v) Up to five key words
A footnote on the same sheet should give the name, address, and telephone and fax numbers of the corresponding author (as well as an e-mail address).
(6) Acknowledgements and information on grants received can be given in a first footnote, which should not be included in the consecutive numbering of footnotes.
(7) Footnotes should be kept to a minimum and numbered consecutively throughout the text with superscript Arabic numerals.
(8) Displayed formulae should be numbered consecutively throughout the manuscript as (1), (2), etc. against the right-hand margin of the page. In cases where the derivation of formulae has been abbreviated, it is of great help to the referees if the full derivation can be presented on a separate sheet (not to be published).
(9) References. Citation of references in the text is by the names of the author(s) followed by the year enclosed in parentheses, e.g. Satterthwaite (1975). References of the same year by the same author(s) should be by small letters following the year; Suzumura (1977c), for instance. References should be listed alphabetically, in the same style as these examples:
For a book:
David, H.A., 1988. The Method of Paired Comparisons, 2nd ed. Griffin, London.
For a paper in a journal:
Agaev, R., Aleskerov, F., 1993. Interval choice: Classic and general cases. Mathematical Social Sciences 26, 249-272.
For a paper in a contributed volume:
Samuelson, 1969. Pure theory of public expenditure and taxation. In: Margolis, J., Guitton, H., (Eds.), Public Economics: An Analysis of Public Production and Consumption and their Relation to the Private Sectors. Proceedings of Conference held by the International Economics Association. Macmillan, London, pp. 31-42.
For an unpublished paper:
Allen, D., 1968. Relations between the local and global structure of finite semigroups. Ph.D. Thesis, University of California, Berkeley, CA, USA.
Note that journal titles should not be abbreviated.
(10) Illustrations will be reproduced photographically from originals supplied by the author; they will not be redrawn by the publisher. Please provide all illustrations in quadruplicate (one high-contrast original and three photocopies). Care should be taken that lettering and symbols are of a comparable size. The illustrations should not be inserted in the text, and should be marked on the back with figure number, title of paper, and author's name. All graphs and diagrams should be referred to as figures, and should be numbered consecutively in the text in Arabic numerals. Illustration for papers submitted as electronic manuscripts should be in traditional form.
(11) Tables should be numbered consecutively in the text in Arabic numerals and printed on separate sheets.
Any manuscript which does not conform to the above instructions may be returned for the necessary revision before publication.
Page proofs will be sent to the corresponding author. Proofs should be corrected carefully; the responsibility for detecting errors lies with the author.
Corrections should be restricted to instances in which the proof is at variance with the manuscript.
Extensive alterations will be charged.
Fifty reprints of each paper are supplied free of charge to the corresponding author; additional reprints are available at cost if they are ordered when the proof is returned.
All questions arising after acceptance of the manuscript, especially those relating to proofs, should be directed to:
