What Has Mattered to Economics Since 1970E. Han KimUniversity of Michigan - Stephen M. Ross School of Business Adair MorseUniversity of California, Berkeley - Haas School of Business; University of Chicago - Booth School of Business Luigi ZingalesUniversity of Chicago Booth School of Business; National Bureau of Economic Research (NBER); Centre for Economic Policy Research (CEPR); University of Chicago - Polsky Center for Entrepreneurship; European Corporate Governance Institute (ECGI) October 2006 CEPR Discussion Paper No. 5873 Abstract: We compile the list of articles published in major refereed economics journals during the last 35 years that have received more than 500 citations. We document major shifts in the mode of contribution and in the importance of different sub-fields: Theory loses out to empirical work, and micro and macro give way to growth and development in the 1990s. While we do not witness any decline in the primacy of production in the United States over the period, the concentration of institutions within the U.S. hosting and training authors of the highly-cited articles has declined substantially.
