Journal of Mathematical Economics
In the Editor's view, the formal mathematical expression of economic ideas is of vital importance to economics. Such expression can determine whether a loose economic intuition has a coherent, logical meaning. Also, a full formal development of economic ideas can itself suggest new economic concepts and intuitions.The primary objective of the Journal is to provide a forum for work in economic theory which expresses economic ideas using formal mathematical reasoning. For work to add to this primary objective, it is not sufficient that the mathematical reasoning be new and correct. The work must have real economic content. The economic ideas must be interesting and important. These ideas may pertain to any field of economics or any school of economic thought.

Research in Economics
Established in 1947, Research in Economics is one of the oldest general-interest economics journals in the world and the main one among those based in Italy. The purpose of the journal is to select original theoretical and empirical articles that will have high impact on the debate in the social sciences; since 1947, it has published important research contributions on a wide range of topics.A summary of our editorial policy is this: the editors make a preliminary assessment of whether the results of a paper, if correct, are worth publishing. If so one of the associate editors reviews the paper: from the reviewer we expect to learn if the paper is understandable and coherent and - within reasonable bounds - the results are correct.We believe that long lags in publication and multiple demands for revision simply slow scientific progress. Our goal is to provide you a definitive answer within one month of submission. We give the editors one week to judge the overall contribution and if acceptable send your paper to an associate editor. We expect the associate editor to provide a more detailed evaluation within three weeks so that the editors can make a final decision before the month expires.In the (rare) case of a revision we allow four months and in the case of conditional acceptance we allow two months to submit the final version. In both cases we expect a cover letter explaining how you met the requirements. For conditional acceptance the editors will verify that the requirements were met. In the case of revision the original associate editor will do so. If the revision cannot be at least conditionally accepted it is rejected: there is no second revision.

Futures
Futures: for the interdisciplinary study of futures, visioning, anticipation and foresightJournal Overview Futures is a forum for substantive research and knowledge at the intersections between disciplines (and beyond them) about the relationships between humanity and its possible futures. It has a long-standing commitment to analyse and challenge misuses and abuses of futures, and to build robust knowledge about the conditions for creating emancipatory, socially, responsible, and ecologically just futures.The editors invite contributions that present:- new knowledge about humanity's diverse anticipatory practices and how to understand, challenge, develop or enhance them - novel futures-oriented research that provides insights from a range of relevant disciplines into the diverse aspects of society’s relationship with the future- the highest quality interdisciplinary scholarship in the field of futures studies.Contribution... to Futures are typically motivated by a wide range of aims and objectives:questioni... the assumptions that shape how futures are imagined; encouraging dialogue across different fields and different knowledge traditions about the futures of cultures and societies, science and technology, economics and politics, environment and the planet, individuals and humanity, organisations and their strategies, building greater understanding of anticipatory behaviours, beliefs, expectations, and practices and their implications in the presentpluralizing the worldviews and perspectives that inform scholarship on and about futures, in particular learning from the knowledges of those who have, hitherto, not been in positions of power developing further the intellectual, ethical and empirical foundations of futures inquiry in interdisciplinary studies, the arts, humanities and social sciences, as well as in practice and policy settingsstrengthenin... the methodological development of professional practices in the futures field - including e.g. foresight, scenario planning and horizon scanning, as well as methods with roots outside these traditionsengenderin... high quality, responsible approaches to futures education - in schools, universities, and professional and policy settingsanimating research interest in emerging questions of significance to the futures of people and planet.What criteria should contributions meet in order to be considered for publication? To be considered for publication, submitted articles should make a substantive contribution to knowledge in one or more of the following areas:Understanding how relationships between human societies and their futures are changingUnderstandin... anticipatory processes, and in particular the uses of ideas of the future by individuals, organisations, or systemsContributing original insights and novel approaches to the theory, ethics, methods and practices of futures, foresight and other forms of prospective knowledge;The research and practice of futures education and futures literacy.Submitted articles should also: Be transparent and reflexive about the theories, assumptions and methods that they use to make their arguments;Have the potential to make a significant contribution to efforts to create more plural, democratic and ecologically just futures, by providing new empirical/conceptual insights and challenging assumptionsSituate their contributions in relation to existing literature on their chosen topics within the field of futures studies, and where possible, in relation to relevant literature published within Futures and other future-oriented communities journals.We welcome in particular contributions from scholars in the global South and proposals for Special Issues from researchers seeking to create an interdisciplinary forum for topics and issues that fit within the aims and scope of the journal. We also welcome for consideration articles that adopt novel presentational strategies but which fulfil one or more of the above criteria. What kinds of contributions will Futures not consider? We are unable to publish papers that:Do not refer to futures or to potential implications of the paper’s topic for the relationship between society and its futures. For example, papers that would fall into this category are ones that: simply describe technological applications and their possible improvements and efficienciesdiscuss methods, theories or innovations with no reference to their implications for humanity's relationship to futures or for developing futures-oriented researchdo not explain why a proposed theory, method or innovation is of significance for human anticipatory capacities.Do not engage with and contribute to existing scholarly work within futures studies that is relevant to a paper’s topic. Our readers expect papers published in the journal to engage with existing relevant debates within Futures and in other leading futures journals. Expressly advocate for a vision of a particular desired, possible or probable future, without reflecting on the basis for these visions and/or without enquiring into the potential consequences of these future visions for the present. Simply describe the outcome of a specific futures method or technique (e.g. ‘we produced these scenarios’ or 'we used method discussion of its potential consequences for scholarship, policy or practicereflexivity towards the assumptions and theory that underpinned itno analysis of the contribution to the scholarship or practice already existing in the field of futures studies, broadly construedThis excludes from consideration contributions which simply set out a particular model or forecast.History of the journal Futures was launched in 1968 to create a forum for the emerging field of Future Studies and is internationally recognised as a leading journal in the fieldToday, Futures is at the cutting edge of developments in the theory and practice of futures-oriented research across many disciplines, opening-up new ways of theorising, studying, challenging and cultivating human anticipationFutures acts as a point of encounter between the 50+ year history of Futures Studies and emerging interests in time and futures across many fieldsThe journal is at the forefront of efforts to create more plural, democratic and sustainable futures through robust research, high quality scholarship and responsible practicePapers are subject to a rigorous double blind peer review process and are published soon after final acceptance

World Development
The Multi-Disciplinary International Journal Devoted to the Study and Promotion of World DevelopmentWorld Development is a multi-disciplinary monthly journal of development studies. It seeks to explore ways of improving standards of living, and the human condition generally, by examining potential solutions to problems such as: poverty, unemployment, malnutrition, disease, lack of shelter, environmental degradation, inadequate scientific and technological resources, trade and payments imbalances, international debt, gender and ethnic discrimination, militarism and civil conflict, and lack of popular participation in economic and political life.Contributions offer constructive ideas and analysis, and highlight the lessons to be learned from the experiences of different nations, societies, and economies. World Development recognizes 'development' as a process of change involving nations, economies, political alliances, institutions, groups, and individuals. Development processes occur in different ways and at all levels: inside the family, the firm and the farm; locally, provincially, nationally, and globally. Our goal is to learn from one another, regardless of nation, culture, income, academic discipline, profession or ideology. We hope to set a modest example of enduring global cooperation through maintaining an international dialogue and dismantling barriers to communication.Benefi... to authors We also provide many author benefits, such as free PDFs, a liberal copyright policy, special discounts on Elsevier publications and much more.

Case Studies on Transport Policy
A Journal of the World Conference on Transport Research SocietyTransport policy is a multidisciplinary field where engineering, economics, sociology and law must come together in well-articulated and effective solutions. Despite being a field of effective intervention, most scientific publications address transport policy with a theoretical and often abstract approach, making its understanding difficult for non-senior academics and even more opaque for practitioners. While the merits of case study methods both for undergraduate and graduate teaching are recognised, academics struggle to find empirical material that provides objective and operational illustration of the theories and approaches lectured. This is a major barrier not only in the teaching context but also for practitioners.Case Studies on Transport Policy covers this gap by providing a repository of relevant material to support teaching and transferability of experiences. Observation of field experience highlighting the details and drawbacks of implementation is invaluable to show how Transport Policy can be applied in the operational field, maintaining consistency with strategic options. Teaching with case studies introduces students to challenges they may face in the real world, and provides a very rich learning method for executive training at every institutional level. For practitioners, and specially governments, case studies are a powerful tool to show the potential benefits from policy measures and packages.Case Studies on Transport Policy and its sister journal Transport Policy provide a valuable reference for the specialised study of transport policy offering in-depth theoretical analysis and detailed case study description and analysis, and in this way providing very complete material for decision makers planners and practitioners to undertake transferability of experiences.
