I am currently doing an MSc in Construction Economics (exciting stuff) and in the process of starting my dissertation. I am however struggling a little with regards to my literature review. Coming from a QS background in private housing I am looking to do it on the economic downturn and its impact on the UK construction industry specifically the house building market. However with the subject being so current I am finding it difficult to identify suitable academic journals etc to base my lit review around. I had been advised that if there's really a lack of information, all the better, because research will be pioneering... I am finding this could be the case once I start on facts and figures of the effects however compiling a lit review is causing me grief.

Was hoping someone on here would perhaps have done similar or know of any use directions to point me in.

Cheers.

Elsevier should always be your first punt.

For economics try this;
