The Swiss Journal of Economics and Statistics is an open access peer-reviewed academic journal of economics, published by SpringerOpen on behalf of the Swiss Society of Economics and Statistics, and financially supported by the Swiss Academy of Humanities and Social Sciences and the Swiss National Bank. The current editor-in-chief is Marius Brülhart.
History
The journal was established in 1864 as the Zeitschrift für Schweizerische Statistik (in German) and Journal de Statistique suisse (in French). Its first editor was Johannes Stössel, the secretary of the Federal Statistical Bureau , who served as an editor from 1864 to 1869.
In 1916, the journal was titled Zeitschrift für schweizerische Statistik und Volkswirtschaft (in German) and Journal de statistique et Revue économique suisse (in French), and from 1945 onwards, it was named Schweizerische Zeitschrift für Volkswirtschaft und Statistik (in German), Revue suisse d'Économie politique et de Statistique (in French), and Swiss Journal of Economics and Statistics (in English).
Although the journal is now published entirely in English, issues prior to the first edition of 2007 also accepted articles written in German, French and Italian.
