EarlyView
We are pleased to announce that The Scandinavian Journal of Economics is now part of the Wiley-Blackwell EarlyView service. Articles accepted for publication can be accessed on a regular basis online in advance of their appearance in a print issue. These articles are fully peer reviewed, edited and complete - they only lack page numbers and volume/issue details - and are considered fully published from the date they first appear online. This date is shown with the article in the online table of contents. The articles are available as full text HTML or PDF and can be cited as references by using their Digital Object Identifier (DOI) numbers. For more information on DOIs, please see http://www.doi.org/faq.html
To view all the articles currently available, click here. Upon print publication, the article will be removed from the EarlyView area and will appear instead in the relevant online issue, complete with page numbers and volume/issue details. No other changes will be made.
The implementation of EarlyView for The Scandinavian Journal of Economics represents our commitment to make manuscripts available for viewing by the academic community as quickly as possible, thereby reducing time to publication considerably without sacrificing quality or completeness.
