Publishing research articles in international journals has become
a precondition to PhD graduation in higher education. In the era
of globalization, non-native English PhD students devote much
scholarly attention to English writing for publication purposes
to share and author their own academic researches for
international journals. Thus, this paper aims to demystify the
most important requirements of English writing for publication
and draw some strategies to successfully publish written English
manuscripts in international journals. Along this line of thought,
a documentary analysis of 12 different research manuscripts of
non-native English academics was undertaken. To cross-check
the data, a questionnaire was directed to the manuscripts’ owners
and the peer reviewers of journals. The findings reveal that
manuscripts which are successfully accepted for publication have
features related to both macro and micro criteria. The former
includes the procedural strategies that allow manuscripts to be
highly and immediately accepted from the first sight such as the
originality or timeliness of the work, its direct relevance,
appropriateness and interest to the journal targeted, and itseffective contributions and solutions to the new emerging era
problems. The latter incorporates the specific details and segments
that reviewers spot at the second sight such as maintaining
coherent and cohesive texts, using authentic and well-cited
references, providing relevant arguments, framing data to appeal
to different audiences, discussing and synthesizing the results.
Depending on these findings, a number of recommendations are
provided to remediate the situation.
