Ecological Economics

Journal Title：Ecological Economics

The journal is concerned with extending and integrating the understanding of the interfaces and interplay between "nature's household" (ecosystems) and "humanity's household" (the economy). Ecological economics is an interdisciplinary field defined by a set of concrete problems or challenges related to governing economic activity in a way that promotes human well-being, sustainability, and justice. The journal thus emphasizes critical work that draws on and integrates elements of ecological science, economics, and the analysis of values, behaviors, cultural practices, institutional structures, and societal dynamics. The journal is transdisciplinary in spirit and methodologically open, drawing on the insights offered by a variety of intellectual traditions, and appealing to a diverse readership.

Specific research areas covered include: valuation of natural resources, sustainable agriculture and development, ecologically integrated technology, integrated ecologic-economic modelling at scales from local to regional to global, implications of thermodynamics for economics and ecology, renewable resource management and conservation, critical assessments of the basic assumptions underlying current economic and ecological paradigms and the implications of alternative assumptions, economic and ecological consequences of genetically engineered organisms, and gene pool inventory and management, alternative principles for valuing natural wealth, integrating natural resources and environmental services into national income and wealth accounts, methods of implementing efficient environmental policies, case studies of economic-ecologic conflict or harmony, etc. New issues in this area are rapidly emerging and will find a ready forum in Ecological Economics.

該期刊致力于擴展和整合對“自然家庭”（生態系統）和“人類家庭”（經濟）之間界面和相互作用的理解。生態經濟學是一個跨學科領域，由一系列具體問題或挑戰定義，這些問題或挑戰與以促進人類福祉、可持續性和正義的方式管理經濟活動有關。因此，該期刊強調借鑒和整合生態科學、經濟學以及價值觀、行為、文化實踐、制度結構和社會動態分析的要素的批判性工作。該期刊具有跨學科精神，方法論開放，借鑒了各種知識傳統提供的見解，吸引了各種各樣的讀者。

涵蓋的具體研究領域包括：自然資源評估、可持續農業和發展、生態綜合技術、從地方到區域再到全球的綜合生態經濟模型、熱力學對經濟學和生態學的影響、可再生資源管理和保護、對當前經濟和生態范式的基本假設的批判性評估以及替代假設的影響、轉基因生物的經濟和生態后果以及基因庫清單和管理、評估自然財富的替代原則、將自然資源和環境服務納入國民收入和財富賬戶、實施有效環境政策的方法、經濟生態沖突或和諧的案例研究等。該領域的新問題正在迅速涌現，并將在《生態經濟學》中找到現成的論壇。
