International Review of Environmental and Resource Economics

Aims & Scope

Environmental and resource economics has become a broad topic, making connections with many other subdisciplines in economics as well as the natural and physical sciences.

It has also experienced a significant growth in research such that the literature is exploding in terms of the number of topics addressed, the number of methodological approaches being applied and the sheer number of articles being written.

Coupled with the high degree of specialization that characterizes modern academic research, this proliferation of topics and methodologies makes it impossible for anyone, even those who specialize in the subject, to keep up with developments in the field.
