# European Economic Review (european-economic-review)
## Journal positioning
EER is a long-standing general-economics journal historically associated with the European economics community, publishing across all fields — micro, macro, labor, public, IO, trade, development — in both theory and empirics. It is a strong general field journal: it wants a clear question, a sound method, and a result that is interesting to economists beyond the immediate subfield, without requiring the discipline-wide reach of a top-5. The readership is broad, so framing should be general-economics rather than narrowly specialist.
This skill is a **fit / venue-selection / re-framing** tool. It does not replace the journal's current official submission guidelines. Before submitting, re-check the live author instructions on the Elsevier site and the editorial submission system.
## When to trigger
- The author names EER as the target venue, or wants a broad general-economics home below the top-5.
- A solid paper of general interest needs a venue that takes both theory and empirics seriously across fields.
- A field paper needs re-framing so its contribution reads as broadly interesting economics rather than niche.
- The author needs EER's desk-reject risks and a credible general / European alternative list.
