What this page is about
This page is part of a larger set of rankings for research items, serials, authors and institutions made available on this site. A FAQ is available.
- Customize this ranking.
- These rankings list the top 10 economists for each cohort, where the cohort year is determined by the year of their terminal degree as listed in the RePEc Genealogy (where missing information can be added after authentication by any user). For cohorts with less than 100 economists, one economist is ranked for every ten. Cohort counts can be found on the RePEc Genealogy statistics pages.
- There are 73242 registered authors evaluated for all the rankings
The data presented here are experimental. They are based on a sample of the research output in Economics and Finance. Only material catalogued in RePEc is considered. For any citation based criterion, only works that could be parsed by the CitEc project are considered. For any ranking of people, only those registered with the RePEc Author Service can be taken into account. And for rankings of institutions, only those listed in EDIRC and claimed as affiliation by the respective, registered authors can be measured. Thus, this list is by no means based on a complete sample. You can help making this more comprehensive by encouraging more publications to be listed (instructions) and more authors to register (form).
