The Journal of Australian Political Economy has always been an important journal in the field of political economy. It not only focuses on the analysis of orthodox economics, but also provides a platform for scholars to explore issues related to key features of contemporary capitalism. The magazine pays special attention to the interactions between capital, labor, ecology, and the state, and explores them in depth in the context of Australia.

The magazine is published twice a year, one of which is a "thematic" issue about a specific topic, and the other is a "general" issue containing a series of themed articles. This flexible publishing approach allows editors and authors to engage in in-depth discussions around specific topics, while also maintaining the diversity and depth of the magazine's content. The editorial team is committed to ensuring that the published articles are of high quality and undergo a peer review process. They encourage young scholars to participate and help them develop their own research projects. Through this approach, the magazine not only provides a platform to showcase existing research, but also serves as a cradle for the development and deepening of the research of a new generation of scholars.
