  Quotations and Citations (References)

  Bulletin of Economic Theory and Analysis uses APA7. Examples of in-text and end-of-text references are given below.
  
  
• When citing 1 author in the text, it should be given as (Solow, 1956).
• When citing 2 authors in the text, it should be given as (Snowdon & Vane, 2005). The & sign should be used in place of the words and or and.

• If a group/legal entity (such as associations, companies, governmental organisations and other working groups) is referred to as the author, the name of this group should be given in a very clear and understandable way in the reference in the text. In some cases the group name may be abbreviated. If the group name is long and the abbreviation is clear to everyone, or if there is already a known abbreviation for the group name, both the full and abbreviated form may be used in the first use, and only the abbreviation may be used in subsequent uses. If the group name is short or its abbreviation is not clear to everyone, the clear version of the name is written in all references.
• In case of multiple references in the same parenthesis, the order should be alphabetical (not chronological!) according to the surname of the first author and separated by semicolons.
• If different works by the same author are to be given in the same parenthesis, the order of the year from the past to the present is followed and the surname of the author is written once at the beginning of the reference.

The author's name and date information in the submission must be exactly the same as the author's name and date information in the bibliography. Numbering or bullet points are not used in the bibliography. In cases where the number of authors is twenty or less, all author names are included in the bibliography.
