As economics becomes increasingly specialized, communication amongst economists becomes even more important. The Journal of Economic Surveys seeks to improve the communication of new ideas. It provides a means by which economists can keep abreast of recent developments beyond their immediate specialization. Areas covered include:

  • economics
  • econometrics
  • economic history
  • business economics

Each year, the Journal of Economic Surveys publishes a special issue devoted to a particular theme. Recent topics include: Issues in Monetary, Financial and Macroeconomic Adjustment Policies; Surveys in Economic Growth: Theory and Empirics, and Contributions to Financial Econometrics: Theoretical and Practical Issues. Each special issue is available as part of an annual subscription in the year in which it is published, while previous years' issues may be purchased individually as part of the Surveys of Recent Research in Economics book series.
