Impact Factor: 0.635
The Review of Development Economics is a leading journal publishing high-quality research in development economics. It publishes rigorous analytical papers, theoretical and empirical, which deal with contemporary growth problems of developing countries, including the transition economies. The Review not only serves as a link between theorists and practitioners, but also builds a bridge between development economists and their colleagues in related fields. While the level of the Review of Development Economics is academic, the materials presented are of value to policy makers and researchers, especially those in developing countries.
The Review encourages development economists to ponder the question of what changes the 21st century will bring and embraces all the new issues of interest to developing and developed economies that might emerge as the 21st century progresses.
