handle is hein.journals/jrncpy21 and id is 1 raw text is: Editors' Note New Editor of the Journal of Consumer Policy We are very happy to announce that from January 1998, Professor Alan Mathios has joined the team of JCP Editors. He will carry a special responsibility for dealing with manuscripts based on the theories and methods of economics. In this capacity, Professor Mathios succeeds Professor Jrg Finsinger who retired as an Editor at the end of 1997. Alan Mathios is currently an associate professor at Cornell University in the Department of Policy Analysis and Management. He came to Cornell following six years of employment at the Federal Trade Commission (FTC), where he served as a senior staff economist in the Division of Economic Policy Analysis and as an econometrics consultant to the Bureau of Economics. The major focus of his research is on the effect of information dissemination policies and other government regulations on consumer welfare. While strongly present in JCP's Editorial Board and among the contributors and readers of the journal, until now the large North American research community has not been represented in the group of Editors. The appointment of Alan Mathios as Editor strengthens the links with North America and will make it easier for prospective authors to establish contact with the journal. Hence, US and Canadian scholars are invited to send manuscripts and to direct inquiries to the following address: Alan Mathios, Editor, Journal of Consumer Policy Department of Policy Analysis and Management 120E MVR Hall Cornell University Ithaca, NY, 14853 USA e-mail: adm5@cornell.edu Folke Olander Norbert Reich Geoffrey Woodroffe Journal of Consumer Policy 21: 1, 1998.
