The Developing Economies is a multi-disciplinary quarterly journal of development studies that publishes original research articles on issues relating to developing countries, transition and emerging economies, and developed countries before the take-off.
[...]
Its unique feature is to welcome both quantitative articles supported by statistical evidence, and qualitative articles based on new data and/or a deep understanding of a specific country, region, or event, which explain new hypotheses, viewpoints, or insights. We expect such qualitative articles to encourage future research that takes a more rigorous empirical approach. The Developing Economies also publishes survey articles with original viewpoints. We hope our articles will reach a broad audience ranging from academic researchers to policymakers and practitioners. The Developing Economies is the official journal of the Institute of Developing Economies, Japan External Trade Organization (IDE-JETRO).
