Ensayos sobre Política Económica (ESPE) es una publicación periódica sobre economía, cuyo objetivo es difundir artículos de carácter técnico de alta calidad. El tipo de documentos que se busca publicar se caracteriza por ser original, interesante y técnicamente correcto; así, el Comité Editorial de ESPE considerará para publicación aquellos trabajos, tanto teóricos como aplicados, que sean de relevancia para el mejor entendimiento de los problemas económicos y de las políticas necesarias para su solución. En ESPE se hace énfasis en los problemas económicos colombianos y latinoamericanos, pero no se limita a trabajos aplicados a estos dos casos; por tanto, cualquier documento del cual se extraigan lecciones acerca de los problemas y políticas económicas podrá ser sometido al proceso editorial, con la salvedad de que el Comité Editorial no considerará para publicación los trabajos de tipo puramente coyuntural.
