JPE SPECIAL 125TH ANNIVERSARY ISSUE: THE PAST, PRESENT, AND FUTURE OF ECONOMICS (2017)

PUBLISHED ON DEC 30, 2017

In commemoration of the Journal of Political Economy's 125th anniversary, the journal invited senior colleagues from the Kenneth C. Griffin Department of Economics and the Booth School of Business to contribute work on "The Past, Present, and Future of Economics." Department Chair John List and JPE Head Editor Harald Uhlig describe the special issue "as a unique collection of short commemorative essays; a kaleidoscope, as a colorful assembly of views and perspectives, with the authors each bringing their own perspective and personality to bear...We asked that their contribution be about what the field has accomplished or about where the field might or should be going in the future." The special anniversary issue can be accessed at Journal of Political Economy Volume 125, Number 6 (December 2017), along with a detailed listing of essays and contributors.
