Under ISET affiliation Luc Leruth, the Lead Economist in the Policy Institute’s Governance and Social Policy Research Center, has recently been appointed a co-editor of The Open-Access, Open-Assessment Journal Economics. As a new form of the academic journal, the publication incorporates a large research community with an open and innovative peer review process; where critically the research is seen as a cooperative enterprise between authors, editors, referees, and readers.

Naturally, we’re proud of the achievement and delighted that our economists are always working on innovative, international research. Luc thus joins our other established academics in collaborating on noteworthy global research. As such, he is not solely supporting local projects, but the wider economic world, and Luc is undoubtedly helping to promote both Georgia and ISET with his sterling contributions to the field.

We wholeheartedly look forward to reading Luc’s editions and contributions in the future!
