International Tax and Public Finance has made some changes to its editorial board. At the end of last year, Gabrielle Fack (University Paris-Dauphine) and Mazhar Waseem (University of Manchester) stepped down as editors of the Policy Watch section of the journal. We thank them for their service and for broadening the extent and scope of the journal’s readership. The openings they left have been filled by Thiess Buettner (Friedrich-Alexander University) and Katarzyna Bilicka (Utah State University). Given the Policy Watch goal of publishing “think pieces”, that is, big ideas about topics of interest to those working in both the practice and research of public finance, we hope that they can continue to broaden the scope of the issues the journal covers.

David R. Agrawal (University of Kentucky), Ronald B. Davies (University College Dublin), Nadine Riedel (University of Münster) have renewed their term as editors-in-chief of the journal. Over the last three years, the number of submissions to the journal has increased substantially to nearly 500 papers per year. We hope to continue this trend of striving to make International Tax and Public Finance a top journal in the field of public economics.

We also wish to thank Erzo F.P. Luttmer for his time on the Editorial Advisory Board and wish him the best as he has become editor of the American Economic Review.

Finally, we continue to express our thanks to all of those who contribute to the journal as authors and referees. It is an honor to be a part of such a vital and active discussion that includes academics, policy makers, and practitioners. In particular, during these challenging times, we hope that International Tax and Public Finance acts as a positive contribution to these important and energetic debates.
