# Journal of Economic Perspectives (journal-of-economic-perspectives)

## Journal positioning

JEP is the American Economic Association's accessible, communication-first journal. It publishes non-technical, symposium-style articles that explain economic ideas, evidence, and debates to the broad community of economists — readers across all fields, not specialists in the author's subfield. The contribution is clear exposition and synthesis of what economists should know about a topic; articles are largely solicited around themed symposia, and the prized quality is communication, not original estimation or technical apparatus.

This skill is a **fit / venue-selection / re-framing** tool. It does not replace the journal's current official submission guidelines. Before submitting or proposing, re-check the live author instructions on the AEA site and the editorial submission system.

## When to trigger

- The author wants to write or propose a JEP article, or has an accessible synthesis aimed at all economists.
- A scholar wants to communicate a literature, debate, or set of facts to a general economist audience without heavy technical machinery.
- A technical paper's broad message could become an accessible companion piece for the profession at large.
- The author needs JEP's symposium/proposal route, desk-reject risks, and a credible accessible-venue alternative list.
