Economic Affairs

“Economic Affairs is lively, thought-provoking and informative. It should be read by people on all parts of the political spectrum.” — David Willetts MP

Economic Affairs is the IEA's termly journal. Each edition focuses on a particular field of economics, with a number of articles providing a succinct and up-to-date analysis. There are also articles on a wide range of policy issues. Some of these articles are academically peer-reviewed whilst others are briefer, dealing with a particular controversial aspect of economic policy. The journal has regular 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 providing relevant and timely discussion that is accessible to a wide audience. There is a student and teacher supplement which can be downloaded free which provides material especially relevant for classroom debate.

Single issues of Economic Affairs can be purchased; but only the editorial, sample article and student and teacher supplement are available free online.

Individuals and schools can subscribe for £31 per year (students £25) and other educational institutions and libraries for £183 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. Most college and university libraries can access all editions of Economic Affairs though Ebsco, Synergy and related packages.
