Focus

Jurnal Ekonomi dan Kebijakan Terapan (JEKT) is a peer-reviewed academic journal that publishes empirical research in the fields of economics. The journal is dedicated to advancing knowledge through the application of robust quantitative analysis to address real-world economic issues and public policy challenges.

JEKT particularly welcomes manuscripts that employ advanced econometric techniques, including but not limited to policy impact evaluation, applied microeconometrics, and time-series econometrics for forecasting. In addition, the journal encourages submissions utilizing input-output analysis, computable general equilibrium (CGE) models, and other quantitative modeling frameworks to explore structural relationships within the economy.

Through these analytical approaches, JEKT aims to contribute to evidence-based policymaking, foster scholarly debate, and inform both academic and practitioner communities on critical socio-economic matters in Indonesia and beyond.
