non sense ranking
Journal of economic literature and journal of economic perspective are survey journals. They are high quality and actually these are the only two journals I read every issue for fun. but ususally people don't count their papers in these journals as academic contribution.
AER is definitely more influenctial than econometrica. The editor of econometrica admitted this and this journal is transforming to face a broader audience. This is one important reason that they have Acemoglue as editor now.

"ususally people don't count their papers in these journals as academic contribution"???夸张了吧? 随便举个例子Krugman1987年发在 journal of economic perspective 上的Is free trade passe?不是学术文章吗?你知道这篇论文在国际经济学领域的引用率吗? 还有萨缪尔森04年发在这杂志上的论文"where Ricardo and Mill........."的影响力你知道吗?
请问斑竹,我的这一帖子浏览已经600多次了,而且回复较多,为什么没有加精啊,什么情况下帖子才能加精呀?
请斑竹明示,不胜感激
well. I do not say anything that JEP and JEL are bad. articles in JEP and JEL are well cited and influential. that is for sure as the authors are mainly big guys and the articles are written in a nontechnical way. (JEL is a bit more technical.) My point is that most of the articles are not original contributions. Even the articles by the two Pauls in this journal are not original. the ideas are expressed in a more formal way somewhere else. If you meet an assistant professor and say well you guy got a nice paper published at JEP, he or she will be very happy. but if you continue to say then this article will help a lot to get a tenure, his or her response will be 'faint'. So do I.
by the way, I do not think Krugman's article in this journal is excellent. I do have a negative bias towards Krugman although I read most of his papers.
