Top Economists by Cohorts, as of December 2013
This page shows one of the many rankings computed with RePEc data. They are based on data about authors who have registered with the
RePEc Author Service, institutions listed on
EDIRC, bibliographic data collected by
RePEc, citation analysis performed by
CitEc and popularity data compiled by
LogEc. To find more rankings, historical data and detailed methodology, click
here. Or see the
ranking FAQ.
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.

The data presented here is experimental. It is based on a limited 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). For more details on the various rankings that are available as well for documentation, follow this link.
