It is directed to an international readership among economists and social scientists in government, business, international agencies, universities, and development research institutions. The Review seeks to provide the most current and best research in the field of quantitative development policy analysis, emphasizing policy relevance and operational aspects of economics, rather than primarily theoretical and methodological issues. Consistency with World Bank policy plays no role in the selection of articles. The Review is managed by one or two independent editors selected for their academic excellence in the field of development economics and policy.
