Aims and scope

Founded in 1864, the Swiss Journal of Economics and Statistics (SJES) is a peer-reviewed journal which publishes contributions to any field of economics. It reaches an international audience through  worldwide open access. Owned and funded by the Swiss Society of Economics and Statistics, SJES is committed to a high-quality and efficient review process with a first-round response time of typically less than two months. SJES particularly welcomes contributions from early-career researchers. As a journal of economics, SJES does not publish contributions in pure statistics.
