background

The International Economic Review was founded in 1960 by Michio Morishima of the Institute of Social and Economic Research at Osaka University and Lawrence Klein of the Wharton School and the Department of Economics at the University of Pennsylvania to provide a forum for modern quantitative economics. The first edition was published in January 1960. In its early days , the International Economic Review was financially and materially supported by the Kansai Economic Federation of Osaka. Currently, the magazine is as an academic nonprofit - a joint venture by ISER and the Department of Economics of the University of Pennsylvania jointly managed and edited. Since its inception, the journal has sought to stimulate economic research worldwide through the publication of cutting-edge articles in many areas of economics, including econometrics , economic theory , macroeconomics, and applied economics.
