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.
