Aims and Scopes

The 'Croatian Economic Survey' is dedicated to publishing high-quality research in the field of economics, with a particular focus on the dynamics of economic growth, institutional quality, and the interactions between various economic factors within the Central and Eastern Europe (CEE) region and beyond.
  1. Economic Growth Analysis:
    A core focus on understanding the determinants and impacts of economic growth across various regions, particularly in CEE countries, with empirical analyses examining the relationships between growth and factors such as trade, investment, and environmental quality.
  2. Institutional Quality and Governance:
    Research examining the role of institutional frameworks and governance structures in shaping economic outcomes, particularly in emerging economies, emphasizes the importance of institutional quality in fostering development.
  3. Sectoral and Regional Economic Studies:
    The journal explores specific economic sectors and regional studies, providing insights into the unique economic conditions and challenges faced by different countries, especially within the Southern Europe context.
  4. Interdisciplinary Approaches:
    The journal encourages interdisciplinary methodologies, integrating economics with other fields such as finance, environmental studies, and business management, to provide a comprehensive understanding of complex economic phenomena.
  5. Microeconomic Perspectives:
    There is a growing interest in micro-level analyses, focusing on household behavior, firm performance, and individual decision-making processes, which contribute to the broader economic landscape.
Recent publications in the 'Croatian Economic Survey' have revealed several trending and emerging themes that reflect the evolving economic landscape and the journal's responsiveness to contemporary issues.
  1. Impact of Climate Change on Economics:
    There is a growing attention to the economic effects of extreme weather events and climate change, as evidenced by recent studies examining their impact on national economies, highlighting an emerging recognition of environmental factors in economic analysis.
  2. Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) and Trade Openness:
    Research increasingly focuses on the relationships between economic growth, FDI, and trade openness, particularly in the context of emerging economies, showcasing the importance of global economic integration.
  3. Complexity of Exports and Economic Development:
    The analysis of export complexity as a determinant of economic growth is gaining traction, indicating a sophisticated understanding of how the nature of exports contributes to broader economic performance.
  4. Micro-Level Economic Behavior:
    Recent studies emphasize microeconomic factors, such as household debt and business activity, reflecting a trend towards understanding individual and firm-level decisions and their aggregate effects on the economy.
  5. Institutional Factors in Economic Development:
    An increasing focus on the role of institutional quality, governance, and their implications for economic development reflects a trend towards integrating political economy perspectives into economic research.

Declining or Waning

While the journal has consistently focused on various economic themes, certain areas appear to be losing prominence in the recent publications. This may reflect shifting research interests or changing economic landscapes.
  1. Corporate Governance in Banking:
    Although corporate governance remains a relevant topic, there has been a noticeable decrease in specific studies focusing on banking sector governance, indicating a potential shift towards broader economic governance frameworks.
  2. Macroprudential Policies:
    Research directly addressing macroprudential policies and their impacts has seen a decline, suggesting that scholars may be moving towards more integrated or alternative economic policy frameworks.
  3. Forensic Accounting and Analysis:
    The focus on forensic analysis, particularly in the context of income statements, has diminished, indicating a possible waning interest in this niche area of accounting within broader economic research.
