Editorial: Economic, statistical and social approach

Abstract

We begin 2017 with a new issue of the Journal of the Institute of Economic and Social Research (IECOS) with the experience acquired over several years of intellectual development and inquiries into the national economic reality, preserving the interest in contributing useful interpretations to the country's problems in the different areas in which the economic, statistical and social approach is present. Any research journal should be a means of expansion and transfer of knowledge acquired in the university classrooms. In this sense, it is also a bridge that allows communicating to the outside world the development and accumulation of systematic thought derived from previous research, opening the way to a context of ideas and debates in which we should all feel part of in order to contribute to the advancement of scientific culture.
