This guide outlines the rigorous methodological standards for empirical identification in macroeconomics, crucial for submitting to top-tier journals. It covers advanced techniques such as Structural VAR (SVAR), Local Projections (LP), and handling high-frequency/micro-data shocks. It ensures authors explicitly defend the mapping from raw data to dynamic causal objects, addressing critical issues like endogeneity, anticipation, and structural breaks, and providing execution checklists for modern econometric tools (DiD, IV, RDD).
