The Erasmus Journal for Philosophy and Economics (EJPE) - Call For Papers

Call For Papers - The Erasmus Journal for Philosophy and Economics (EJPE)
EJPE is a peer-reviewed academic journal publishing research which improves our understanding of the methodology, history and inter-disciplinary relations of economics. EJPE is supported by the Erasmus Department of Philosophy and the Erasmus Institute for Philosophy and Economics (EIPE) and is an open access journal.
EJPE aspires to:
· publish high quality and interesting contributions to the field of philosophy and economics.
· provide a forum for inter-disciplinary content and approaches that is particularly friendly to Young Scholars (graduate students and recent PhD graduates), supported by an efficient and constructive peer review process.
Call For Papers
Research domains
(1) Methodology of economics
Issues falling within the analytical philosophy of science tradition including the methodological analysis and appraisal of the concepts, theories and techniques of economics, both mainstream and heterodox. Contributions on methodological issues
in evolutionary and institutional economics are particularly welcome.
(2) History of economic thought
Issues in the historical development of the ideas, theories, and methods of economics.
(3) Inter-disciplinary issues relating economics to other fields
Issues arising from non-traditional sources of critique and investigation of economics, or the use of economics to investigate other fields, including for example, ethics; sociology; political philosophy; continental philosophy;
literature. Such contributions will show a clear connection to economic issues and involve conceptual rather than purely theoretical or empirical analysis.

Book reviews of significant recently published works crossing philosophy and economics (1000-2000 words)
