Detailed information

Scope of the journal

„Problemy Ekorozwoju” / „Problems of Sustainable Development” (first issue published in 2006) is an interdisciplinary journal, connected with different sciences, from philosophy, through economy to environmental engineering. Every paper should however refer to the basic paradigms of sustainable development (so include social, economic and environmental issues and Sustainable Development Goals). We also prefer international comparisons than local studies, since problems are usually international or even global. We do not print papers based on bibliometric analysis only. We also do not print papers based on aggregate measures, if they don’t include differences between countries and trends in time.
