The World Bank Research Observer seeks to inform nonspecialist readers about research being undertaken within the Bank and outside the Bank in areas of economics relevant for development policy. Requiring only a minimal background in economic analysis, its surveys and overviews of key issues in development economics research are intended for policymakers, project officers, journalists keeping up to date, and teachers and students of development economics and related disciplines.

About Journal

The Tijdschrift voor Economische en Sociale Geografie is a leading international journal on contemporary issues in human geography. Through its articles and special issues and dossiers on topics of interest, it presents actual international research findings in authoritative scientific contributions. The Tijdschrift voor Economische en Sociale Geografie is a channel for the dissemination of new perspectives, ideas and approaches to the study of human geography. The journal, established in 1910, builds on a tradition of empirically and theoretically based research, providing a fruitful interdisciplinary platform for economic and social geography themes. The journal offers space to specialized discussions in human geographical disciplines (on economic, social, cultural and political geographical themes, and development studies), but explicitly also to interdisciplinary, overview and survey articles. Regular features of the journal are its Outlook on Europe and Window on The Netherlands sections, which discuss current spatial trends and policies from a specific European or Dutch geographical perspective.

About Journal

Theory and Decision is devoted to all aspects of decision making belonging to such programs, but addresses also possible cross-fertilizations between these disciplines which would represent effective advances in knowledge. The purpose of the journal is to let the engineering of choice gradually emerge both for individual and for collective decision making. Formalized treatments will be favoured, to the extent that they provide new insights into the issues raised and an appropriate modeling of the situation considered.

About Journal

Spanish Economic Review will publish scientific articles in any field of economics and management. In contrast with recent trends toward highly specialized journals, we shall emphasize high quality standards while maintaining a broad range of topics. Theory and applications, in any combination, are equally welcome. Small symposia, grouping different papers on a related topic, will be part of some of the issues. Again, these topics can be chosen from a wide spectrum, but we definitely commit to devote space to the European economy.

Spanish Economic Review builds upon the experience of the REE, which was one of the journals through which Spanish economists achieved their convergence process toward standard scientific practices. Now, with an unrestrictively international scope, we shall use this expertise in providing fair and speedy refereeing to a larger set of authors.

About Journal

Social Choice and Welfare explores all aspects, both normative and positive, of welfare economics, collective choice, and strategic interaction. Topics include but are not limited to: preference aggregation, welfare criteria, fairness, justice and equity, rights, inequality and poverty measurement, voting and elections, political games, coalition formation, public goods, mechanism design, networks, matching, optimal taxation, cost-benefit analysis, and experimental investigations related to social choice and voting. As such, the journal is inter-disciplinary and cuts across the boundaries of economics, political science, philosophy, and mathematics. Articles on choice and order theory that include results that can be applied to the above topics are also included in the journal. While it emphasizes theory, the journal also publishes empirical work in the subject area reflecting cross-fertilizing between theoretical and empirical research. Readers will find original research articles, surveys, and book reviews.
