Abstract

A number of specific conclusions and recommendations have emerged from my discussion of readily available data. But such data remain scanty. More research is needed on almost every point touched here. I invite the EEA to promote such research, in the same way that it did earlier for rankings of economics departments. Just running down the list of items above on which I did advocate further work provides the starting point of a research program.
