The Emory Economics Review (EER) is a student organization of Emory University in Atlanta, GA. We aim to foster discussion around socio-economic issues around the world. Among the principles that guide our writers and editors are respect for the integrity of knowledge, objectivity in analysis, and openness to new perspectives. Through our faculty partnerships, physical and digital platforms, and a socially and academically diverse body of members, we purposefully construct an environment in which intellectual curiosity is promoted and thought-provoking questions are explored.
