Fiscal Studies

Aim of the journal

The contents of this journal reflect a broad interpretation of fiscal studies; articles are concerned with the whole range of ways in which government action affects the private sector of the economy. The intention is to provide a forum for material which is accessible to a wider audience than that of academic journals in economics, and is often more topical than the publication schedules of such journals can accommodate, but which is nevertheless thoughtful and original.

We encourage submissions from individuals not associated with the Institute, particularly from academic economists working on applied problems whose results have topical policy application. Fiscal Studies has always promoted the dissemination of quality research in a form understandable to a wide audience, and we intend to strengthen this tradition. To maintain the topicality of the journal, submissions will be refereed quickly.

Fiscal Studies had an ISI Journal Citation Reports Ranking of 31/42 in 2006 for Business and Finance and of 112/175 for Economics; its Impact Factor is currently 0.525. The journal was given an A in the Australian Research Council's 2008 journal rankings.
