Academic article editing services
Have you written an academic article you’re aiming to have published? This can be a daunting prospect. When you have worked intensively on a document, you may not be able to identify small typos and grammatical mistakes in your text—you may only discover them after you’ve submitted your article, which would be infuriating. You don’t want minor errors in your hard work be what holds you back from publication success.
Do you represent an academic journal looking for online copyeditors to go through your articles before publication? Editing is a crucial aspect of publishing because small mistakes look so unprofessional to your readers. Outsourcing these editorial services is an excellent way to cut down on costs and keep your team small.
In both these situations, Capstone Editing is here to help. Our journal article editing and proofreading services are the perfect solution. We have a team of experienced, highly trained academics at our disposal and offer flexible services for individual writers and journals alike.
Due to their expertise, our team has a proven track record of delivering outstanding results for clients across Australia, New Zealand and the world. Our commitment to excellence and adherence to the highest standards of editing practice means every article we edit is of the highest quality and ready for international publication.
What is different about journal article editing?
There are many different kinds of journal articles, including original research papers, literature reviews, position papers, technical papers, scientific papers, case reports, review articles and, more rarely from the perspective of the professional editor, letters and research notes. Each field and journal will have its own set of conventions and requirements for scholarly writing for publication. Journal article editing guarantees that your paper correctly and meticulously follows all relevant language, style, referencing and formatting guidelines and that your ideas are clearly and succinctly expressed in accordance with the requirements of the journal. The services of a specialist literary editor, highly skilled in the professional editing of journal articles, are certain to give you the best chance at publication.
Why hire an academic journal editor?
Do you need an academic journal editor or are you looking to find a book editor? Most academics could benefit from having their work professionally edited for the following reasons:
- We will correct any minor mistakes and typos you’ve missed
- We increase your chances of having your article accepted at first submission
- We give you confidence in your writing
- We ensure that your argument is logically structured
- We ensure your article adheres to all formatting and referencing guidelines in your chosen field and journal
- We also provide helpful tips and feedback you can implement in your future writing
- We save you time compared to editing and proofreading the article yourself
- We give academics with English as an Additional Language (EAL) or ESL (English as a Second Language) is the most commonly used term, but we prefer EAL (English as an Additional Language)—and we’d like to explain why! We believe (and many agree with us) that ‘additional language’ is more respectful than ‘second language’ because it avoids implying a hierarchy of different languages or that a person might be less fluent in any particular language. Also, ‘second language’ might be factually incorrect if you speak three or more languages! access to new opportunities and help them develop the quality of their work to ensure their English skills don’t hold them back
If you’d like to publish your journal article, article editing services are essential!

Contemporary feminist political economy and feminism as a sphere of analysis emerged through the women’s movement in the 1970’s. Feminist political economy is concerned with bringing women’s economic role and contributions to the fore. This was necessary as the two dominant theories—neoclassical economics and Marxian political economy—were seen as unable to provide a framework to consider how gender relates to the economy (Tong, 2009: 116). This short paper will outline why neoclassical economics continues to be incompatible with feminist political economy analyses. It will be argued that feminist political economy is not incompatible with Marxian political economy.
