The Journal of Post Keynesian Economics (JPKE[1], ISO 4: J. Post Keynes. Econ.[2]) is a peer-reviewed academic journal published by Taylor & Francis. It is published with four issues per year.[3]

In the 1970s, some proponents of Post Keynesianism were convinced that their theory was superior to neoclassical economics. On the other hand, it became more difficult to publish these aspects in the usual academic journals.[4] This is why some post-Keynesians initially founded the Cambridge Journal of Economics in 1977. [5] In 1978, the Journal of Post Keynesian Economics followed with the aim of publishing theoretical and empirical work related to Post Keynesianism. For the first editors Paul Davidson and Sidney Weintraub, this meant a critical examination of aspects of neoclassical economics such as labour market theory (assumption of full employment), the lack of representation of uncertainty or the strong focus on the long term.[1] The current editors are Jan Kregel and Michalis Nikiforos.[6]

According to the publisher, the impact factor was 0.642 in 2017.[7] A study by French economists Pierre-Phillippe Combes and Laurent Linnemer ranks the journal 254th out of 600 economics journals, placing it in the fourth best category B.[8] In the Handelsblatt ranking, the journal was in the second-lowest category C in 2013.[9]
