history
The Journal of Monetary Economics was in October 1973 by Karl Brunner and Charles Plosser founded and the first time since 1975 with four issues per year by the Dutch Publisher North-Holland Publishing Co. published. The background for the establishment of the Journal of Monetary Economics was the increased interest of the economic world in monetary analysis as well as in the functioning and structure of financial institutions. Providing a platform for research on these topics was named by Brunner as the most important reason for the creation of a new journal specializing in monetary problems. In the years after 1975, the number of editions was initially reduced to three per volume from 1981 and the number of volumes doubled per year, before the number of volumes was finally halved in 2002, but the number of editions was simultaneously increased to eight per year.
The editors of the Journal of Monetary Economics include famous economists such as Robert E. Lucas , Allan Meltzer , James Tobin and Stanley Fischer .
