Japanese Economic Association
Professional body of Japanese economists
The Japanese Economic Association (JEA )[ 2] is the professional body of Japanese economists . The Japanese Economic Association is the largest, with more than 3,000 members, among academic economic associations in Japan. The Association is also one of the oldest, founded in 1934. The Association was reorganized as the Theoretical Economic Association and the Japanese Econometric Association . These two Associations were reunited as the Japan Association of Economics and Econometrics in 1968. The original name of the Association was restored in 1997.[ 3] Its current president is Hideshi Itoh.[ 4] It publishes the Japanese Economic Review .[ 5]
The Association created an official prize, the Nakahara Prize , for the first time in 1995,[ 6] named after its sponsor Nobuyuki Nakahara . The aim of the prize is honoring and encouraging young (under 45 years) economists to publish internationally recognised researches.[ 7]
