Journals Devoted to Institutionalist Research
Journal
of Economic Issues: JEI is an international journal of institutional and
evolutionary economics, publishing articles that deal with basic economic
problems, economic policy, methodology, the organization and control of economies,
and specialized fields of economics.
Journal
of Evolutionary Economics: provides an international forum for a new approach
to economics. Following the tradition of Joseph A. Schumpeter, it is designed
to focus on original research with an evolutionary conception of the economy.
The journal will publish articles with a strong emphasis on dynamics, changing
structures (including technologies, institutions, beliefs and behaviours)
and disequilibrium processes with an evolutionary perspective (innovation,
selection, imitation, etc.). It favours interdisciplinary analysis and is
devoted to theoretical, methodological and applied work.
Evolutionary
and Institutional Economics Review: issued by the Japan Association for
Evolutionary Economics to provide an international forum for new theoretical
and empirical approaches to evolutionary and institutional economics. The
Review, free from the view of equilibrium economics and methodological individualism,
should face the diversity of human behavior and dynamic transformation of
institutions. In the Review, 'economics' is used in its broadest sense. It
covers from the classic research in economic history, economic thought, economic
theory, and management science to emerging research fields such as economic
sociology, bio-economics, evolutionary game theory, agent-based modeling,
complex systems study, econo-physics, experimental economics, and so on. The
Review believes that a truly interdisciplinary discussion is needed to propel
the investigation in the dynamic process of socio-economical change where
institutions as emergent outcomes of human actions do matter.
Journal of Institutional Economics published by JOIE Foundation.The Journal of Institutional Economics is a an interdisciplinary journal devoted to the study of the nature, role and evolution of institutions in the economy, including firms, states, markets, money, households and other vital institutions and organizations.

findings combine with commentary on international developments in social economics
