The current Managing Editors are Steven Brakman (University of Groningen), N. Edward Coulson(University of California - Irvine), Alessandra Faggian (Gran Sasso Science Institute, L'Aquila, Italy), and Yasusada Murata (Nihon University).

Articles are usually empirical, occasionally methodological or theoretical, but always quantitative.
