Editors' Quote
"The intersection of labor economics and development economics is one of the most exciting and important areas of current economic research. The IZA Journal of Labor & Development is a forum for a wide range of innovative theoretical and empirical research linking labor and development. It will in the medium term strive to become the main world-wide interlocutory platform for researchers who work on labor market issues in developing, emerging and transition countries."
David Lam and Hartmut Lehmann
