Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
We are pleased to invite submissions for a Special Issue of Economies dedicated to advancing the field of International Macroeconomics. This Special Issue, “Navigating Global Economic Shifts: Empirical Evidence in International Macroeconomics”, seeks to bring together innovative research that enhances our understanding of macroeconomic dynamics across borders in an era of increasing complexity and interdependence.
This Issue welcomes theoretical, empirical, review, and policy-relevant contributions that explore macroeconomic phenomena through novel frameworks, rigorous data analysis, or critical re-evaluation of established paradigms. We are particularly interested in research that addresses (but is not limited to) the following themes:
- Global financial cycles and capital flow dynamics;
- Exchange rates, inflation targeting, and monetary policy spillovers;
- Sovereign debt, fiscal sustainability, and cross-country contagion;
- International trade, supply chain disruptions, and macroeconomic resilience;
- The macroeconomic implications of geopolitical shifts and climate policy;
- Technological change and digital currencies in global financial systems;
- Financial systems, regulation and governance;
- Heterodox approaches to international macroeconomics;
- Debt sustainability and optimal debt levels ;
- Macro-financial linkages;
- Financial and banking crises;
- Sovereign credit ratings;
- Trade wars & geopolitical risks;
- International Financial Institutions and Development.
This Special Issue aims to serve as a platform for diverse perspectives and rigorous inquiry, challenging traditional views and offering actionable insights for academia, policymakers, and international institutions.
