The Review (EIER) is issued by the Japan
Association for Evolutionary Economics to provide an international
forum for new theoretical and empirical approaches to evolutionary
and institutional economics. The Review, free from the view of
equilibrium economics and methodological individualism, should face
the diversity of human behavior and dynamic transformation of
institutions. In the Review, 'economics' is used in its broadest
sense. It covers from the classic research in economic history,
economic thought, economic theory, and management science to
emerging research fields such as economic sociology, bio-economics,
evolutionary game theory, agent-based modeling, complex systems
study, econo-physics, experimental economics, and so on. The Review
believes that a truly interdisciplinary discussion is needed to
propel the investigation in the dynamic process of socio-economical
change where institutions as emergent outcomes of human actions do
matter. Though the Review is an official journal of the Japan
Association for Evolutionary Economics, it welcomes non-members'
contributions from all parts of the world. All the contributions are
refereed under strict scientific criterion, though the Review does
not apply monolithic formalistic measure to them. Evolution goes
hand in hand with diversities; this is also the spirit of the
Review.
