The USV Annals of Economics and Public Administration publishes the latest scientific papers by national and foreign authors. The USV Annals of Economics and Public Administration appeared for the first time in 2001, when the Faculty of Economics and Public Administration (now the Faculty of Economics, Administation and Business) organized the first symposium; after that, the symposium had a periodical oranization and the journal appeared periodically, too. Understanding the necessity of improving the quality standards of the scientific research in the frame of the Faculty, we incresed the standards, so the journal is indexed in several international databases. In the same time, we have increased its visibility in Romania and abroad by developing collaborations with researchers from several universities and institutes. We welcome theoretical and empirical articles from all economic fields, according to the 5 sections:
· Economy, trade, services
