Aims & Scope

The Economics of Peace and Security Journal (EPSJ) addresses business and economic aspects of peace and security, ranging from the interpersonal and communal domains to transboundary and global affairs. Our scope includes all violent and nonviolent conflict affecting human and nonhuman life as well as their implications for our common habitat, Earth. Special attention is paid to constructive proposals for nonviolent conflict resolution and peacemaking. While open to noneconomic approaches, most contributions emphasize economic analysis of causes, consequences, and possible solutions to prevent, or else mitigate, conflict and violence. Contributions are scholarly or practitioner-based.
