Trending and Emerging

Declining or Waning
- Traditional Labor Economics:
Research specifically centered on traditional labor economics topics, such as wage dynamics and labor market structures, has seen a decrease, possibly overshadowed by more contemporary issues like remote work and gig economies. - Longitudinal Studies on Economic Behavior:
There appears to be a waning interest in longitudinal studies that track economic behavior over extended periods, as more researchers gravitate towards immediate impacts of recent events like the pandemic. - Environmental Economics:
Although still relevant, the frequency of papers focused solely on environmental economics, particularly those that do not connect to broader economic implications, has diminished. - Fixed Economic Models:
The reliance on fixed economic models without considering dynamic changes in the economy has reduced, as researchers now favor models that incorporate more variability and adaptability. - Regional Economic Disparities:
There is a noticeable decline in research specifically addressing regional economic disparities, as the journal's focus has shifted towards global and comparative perspectives.
