Econ Journal Watch

Econ Journal Watch

Econ Journal Watch (EJW) is an electronic journal that began in 2004; it is a triannual that publishes:

Comments on articles appearing in economics journals and serves as a forum about economics research and the economics profession. EJW watches the journals for inappropriate assumptions, weak chains of argument, phony claims of relevance, and omissions of pertinent truths. Pointed, constructive criticism requires an independent forum and an accessible and timely medium. Other material including essays, reflections, investigations, and classic critiques speak to the nature and character of economics. EJW applies theories of failure—market, government, organizational—to the practices and institutions of economists. ("Forward" of EJW website, Fall, 2006)

This journal emerged into the void created by massive declines, since the 1970s, in the publication of critical commentary in top general-interest journals in economics (i.e., AER, EJ, JPE, QJE, and REStat); see, [http://www.econjournalwatch.org/pdf/CoelhoetalEconomicsInPracticeAugust2005.pdf Coelho et al] .

EJW is edited by Daniel B. Klein. Six Nobel laureates are members of the EJW Advisory Council (Buchanan, Coase, Mundell, North, Schelling, Smith).
