Economie et Statistique / Economics and Statistics

INSEE and official statistics
Dernière mise à jour le : 08/02/2024

The journal Economie et Statistique, published by Insee – the French National Statistics Institute – was founded in 1969. Initially monthly and aimed at disseminating the work of statisticians and researchers from the Institute, the journal is now widely open onto the contributions of researchers from other horizons and has evolved into an academic journal.
In 2017, Economie et Statistique became Economie et Statistique / Economics and Statistics. Since then, the online edition of the journal is published simultaneously in French and in English; the print edition has remained in French only.
Articles are published in the journal under the responsibility of their authors and do not necessarily reflect the views of Insee or authors’ institutions.
