IEA Journal
-- Martin Wolf, Chief Economics Commentator, the Financial Times.
Economic Affairs is the IEA's quarterly journal. Each edition has a main theme on which a number of articles provide a succinct and up-to-date review of a particular field of economics. There are also regular articles on a wide range of policy issues and columns on Education, Globalisation, the Environment, the City, and the Economics of Government, together with book reviews. Economic Affairs aims to stimulate debate on economic and social problems by asking its authors, while analysing complex issues, to make their analysis and conclusions accessible to a wide audience.
Single issues of Economic Affairs can either be purchased or the contents downloaded.
Individuals and schools can subscribe for £24 per year (students £20) and other educational institutions and libraries for £138 per year. Subscribers are entitled to hard copies and also online access to the Economic Affairs archive. Subscribing schools can provide all their students with online access. Individual copies can be bought through downloading the contents below. Most college and university libraries can access all editions of Economic Affairs though Ebsco, synergy and related packages.
