A Collaboration with Economists for Peace and Security

The launch of ‘Economists on Peace‘, is an editorial collaboration between the Institute for Economics and Peace (IEP) and Economists for Peace and Security (EPS).

Economists on Peace presents the latest thinking on relevant issues to the policy, practice and theory of economics and development. Contexts cover conflict and crisis from leading academics and experts in economics, peace and security.

Economists on Peace aims to stimulate global discussion and shared learning. Further, we want discussions from economic aspects of conflict leading to appropriate action for peace and security.

The US Institute of Peace (USPI) originally hosted this blog series and later the Stockholm International Peace Research Institute (SIPRI) took it over. It will now be available here at visionofhumanity.org.

Economists for Peace and Security (EPS) is an international network of economists. It was set up to establish economics of peace and security as a fundamental part of the academic discipline of economics.

EPS fulfils this aim by setting up academic chairs, a peer-reviewed academic journal and promoting economic analysis on conflict. Our economists provide expertise for social scientists, citizens, journalists and policy-makers worldwide.

The Institute for Economics and Peace (IEP) is a leading think tank dedicated to developing metrics to analyse peace. IEP developed global and national indices to quantify the economic value of peace. Additionally, the think tank calculates the economic cost of violence, to analyse country level risk.
