KDI Journal of Economic Policy

Abstract

The KDI Journal of Economic Policy (KDI JEP) is a professional journal published on a quarterly basis. The Journal publishes papers on the academic and policy issues related to the development of Korea’s economy. The KDI Journal of Economic Policy welcomes innovative and insightful academic papers on all areas of economics with an emphasis on empirical analysis that contain solid policy implications. KDI JEP is published in English starting in 2015, volume 37 number 1. The Journal aims to disseminate research outcomes and policy recommendations not only to experts at academia and research institutes but also to policy-makers and the general public. First published in March 1979, the original objective was to circulate ongoing- and past researches conducted in KDI, a leading economic think-tank of South Korea. Starting in August, 2001, the Journal has accepted manuscripts from outside in order to provide the readers more diverse perspectives on Korea’s policy initiatives. The Journal now actively seeks and welcomes submissions by researchers at home and from abroad who have genuine interests in the Korean economy.
