Abstract

This is my last issue – a special issue on ‘environmental/ impact assessment simplification’; subsequently introduced by Fischer et al. (2023) – as editor of Impact Assessment and Project Appraisal (IAPA) after seven years, 39 issues (of which 11 issues with a special focus) and 351 published items (including research and professional practice papers, letters, book reviews and editorials). Prior to my time at IAPA, I was editor of the Journal of Environmental Assessment Policy and Management (JEAPM), also for seven years, which means I have continuously edited – what used to be – two of the three main impact assessment (IA) journals (the third being Environmental Impact Assessment Review – EIAR) for a total of 14 years. In this, my last editorial, I will make some personal observations and provide for some reflections on IA publishing and editing, looking at past and present developments, in particular with regards to where IAPA is currently standing.

影响评估出版——7年影响评估与项目评估编辑的观察与思考

这是我的最后一期——关于“简化环境/影响评估”的特刊；随后由Fischer等人介绍。（2023）-在7年后担任《影响评估和项目评估》（IAPA）的编辑，出版了39期（其中11期特别关注）和351篇已发表文章（包括研究和专业实践论文、信件、书评和社论）。在我进入IAPA之前，我曾担任《环境评估政策与管理杂志》（JEAPM）的编辑，也有七年的时间，这意味着我在过去连续编辑了三种主要影响评估杂志中的两种（第三种是《环境影响评估评论》），共计14年。在这篇我的最后一篇社论中，我将对IA的出版和编辑发表一些个人意见，并提出一些思考，回顾过去和现在的发展，特别是IAPA目前的状况。
