Oxford Bulletin of Economics and Statistics
Published on behalf of the Department of Economics, University of Oxford
Edited by:
ISI Journal Citation Reports® Ranking: 2007: 86/191 Economics
Impact Factor: 0.732
Publishing international research papers on current practical issues in applied economics, the Oxford Bulletin of Economics and Statistics is essential reading for academic and professional economists in both the private and public sector.
Whilst the Oxford Bulletin of Economics and Statistics publishes papers in all areas of applied economics, emphasis is placed on the practical importance, theoretical interest and policy-relevance of their substantive results, as well as on the methodology and technical competence of the research.
Contributions on the topical issues of economic policy and the testing of currently controversial economic theories are encouraged, as well as more empirical research on both developed and developing countries.

EARLY VIEW
We are pleased to announce that The Oxford Bulletin of Economics and Statistics is now part of the Wiley Interscience Early View service. Articles accepted for publication can be accessed on a regular basis online in advance of their appearance in a print issue. These articles are fully peer reviewed, edited and complete - they only lack page numbers and volume/issue details - and are considered fully published from the date they first appear online. This date is shown with the article in the online table of contents. The articles are available as full text HTML or PDF and can be cited as references by using their Digital Object Identifier (DOI) numbers. For more information on DOIs, please see http://www.doi.org/faq.html
To view all the articles currently available, please click here. On print publication, the article will be removed from the Early View area and will appear instead in the relevant online issue, complete with page numbers and volume/issue details. No other changes will be made.
The implementation of Early View for The Oxford Bulletin of Economics and Statistics represents our commitment to make manuscripts available for viewing by the academic community as quickly as possible, thereby reducing time to publication considerably without sacrificing quality or completeness.
