STM publisher Elsevier, Netherlands, has announced the launch of a new journal - The Journal of the Economics of Ageing (JEoA).
JEoA is an international academic journal that publishes original theoretical and empirical research on the interaction between demographic change and the economy. The journal encompasses both microeconomic and macroeconomic perspectives and offers a platform for the discussion of topics including labour, health, and family economics; pensions and social security; income distribution; social mobility; migration; productivity; and economic growth and development. JEoA also solicits papers that have a policy focus.
The Journal of the Economics of Ageing will be edited by Prof. David E. Bloom (Harvard School of Public Health), Prof. Dr. Alfonso Sousa-Poza (University of Hohenheim) and Prof. Uwe Sunde (Ludwig-Maximilians-Universität Munich). The editors are supported by a distinguished board of associate editors that include leading economists in the field of the economics of ageing.
The journal will publish two issues in 2013, expanding to follow a regular quarterly schedule in the subsequent years.
