Econ Journal Watch is one of the premier contemporary journals covering a plethora of economic topics that are germane to our everyday lives. The Journal publishes articles that are of interest to professional economists and are relevant to public policy formulation. Two features of Econ Journal Watch set it apart from the traditional economics journal: The articles are instantly accessible to anyone with internet capability and the typical article is user-friendly to just about anyone with an interest in economics or other social or political issues. As an economics professor myself, if I had to choose just one refereed economics journal, Econ Journal Watch would be it, without question. I always look forward to every new issue.
