Bulletin of Indonesian Economic Studies

The Bulletin of Indonesian Economic Studies (BIES) is the leading journal on Indonesia’s economy and society. It aims to address not only economic analysis and policy but also the intersection between economics, development, and area studies. In doing so, it plays an important role in helping the world—including Indonesians themselves—to better understand Indonesia. BIES has been published continuously since 1965. The editors welcome original papers and notes in economics, political economy, and related fields such as law and public policy, political science, demography, geography, the environment, education, and health. Regardless of topic or methodology, the primary focus must be Indonesia. The editors also look to publish discursive book reviews and review essays that contribute to the literature. BIES authors benefit from rigorous double-blind peer review, robust editing, free-access initiatives, a supportive self-archiving policy, and assistance in promoting their article after publication. The journal’s longstanding reputation as a well-respected outlet for high-quality research means each issue is read widely by Indonesianists everywhere. The journal’s practice of publishing article abstracts in both English and Bahasa Indonesia has increased the number of potential readers. In addition to the usual articles reporting economic analysis and research, each issue leads with an instalment of the comprehensive Survey of Recent Developments series, which records and analyses current trends, policy changes, and important economic events in Indonesia. The series aims to be reasonably accessible to non-specialists, and helps to account for the journal’s diverse readership within academia, government, and business and among the broader public.

SJR

The SJR is a size-independent prestige indicator that ranks journals by their 'average prestige per article'. It is based on the idea that 'all citations are not created equal'. SJR is a measure of scientific influence of journals that accounts for both the number of citations received by a journal and the importance or prestige of the journals where such citations come from It measures the scientific influence of the average article in a journal, it expresses how central to the global scientific discussion an average article of the journal is.

Citations per document

This indicator counts the number of citations received by documents from a journal and divides them by the total number of documents published in that journal. The chart shows the evolution of the average number of times documents published in a journal in the past two, three and four years have been cited in the current year. The two years line is equivalent to journal impact factor ™ (Thomson Reuters) metric.
