Overall Group and Elite Core Contributions to Scientific Worth
Dating back to at least 1975, several academic studies have produced a ranking of economics departments (faculties) in the U.S. South. In revisiting this genre of the literature, this study builds upon prior work by (1) including all of the U.S. News & World Report ‐classified national universities and colleges located in the U.S. South, which is a list that has grown considerably in recent years, and (2) examining citations to economists' prior …
A Citations-Based Ranking of Black Economists in Academe
It has been more than 20 years since a study of the research productivity or impact of Black economists has appeared in the economics literature. This study revisits the subject, and in the process combines methodological features from each of the two prior studies. In addition to a ranking of the top 200 Black academic economists in the United States, we also examine other aspects of the data, such as the prevalence of clinical faculty and femal…
When forgiveness beats permission
The concept of the "clinical professor" - sometimes referred to as a "professor of practice," or something similar - is in widespread use in academe. Economics and business disciplines all now entertain the prospect of teaching specialists. This study extends prior research on economics scholarship at liberal arts colleges by examining whether clinical economics faculty are invested in a program of research. After discussing conceptual arguments …
The Relative Impact of Historically Black College and University Economics Departments and Economists
This study examines citation patterns associated with the research being done by the current generation of economists affiliated with America's historically black colleges and universities (HBCUs). In terms of mean citations, we report that the economics department at Bethune-Cookman University ranks first, followed by South Carolina State University and Tennessee State University. In terms of total citations, we find that Howard University ranks…
Business cycles and tourism imports in the South Pacific
The demand for international tourism in Australia and New Zealand is vital to the South Pacific’s tourism-reliant islands. However, at the time of this study these two countries find themselves in precarious economic situations. The question addressed by this study is, will tourism imports in these two countries pick up on the back of economic recovery? We answer this question using time-difference analysis and the newly developed Hamilton filter…
The economics of Puritanism’s treatment of bewitchment
Quality Choice and Product Differentiation in Monopoly Theory
French engineer and transport economist Jules Dupuit (1804–1866) conjectured more than 150 years ago that, in the context of a three‐part tariff concerning French railroads, a discriminating monopolist will find it most profitable to distort product (service) quality at each of the two ends of the quality spectrum in order to prevent consumers in the middle class (i.e., the second of three classes) from defecting to either end (i.e., first or thi…
Public Choice and the EPA, 20 Years Later
Nearly 20 years ago, Mixon (1995) found that urban warming is positively related to the probability of an EPA citation for a violation of carbon emissions standards, whereas lobbying effort reduces the probability of such a citation. This study revisits the Mixon (1995) framework by using data on ozone violations. The results indicate that EPA citations for ozone violations are not significantly related to lobbying effort

Output effects of devaluation
We study the effect of devaluation on output in six developing countries of Asia. In an empirical model that includes monetary, fiscal, and external variables, we examine the impact of devaluation as the effect of real exchange depreciation and alternatively as the effect of nominal devaluation and changes in the foreign‐to‐domestic price ratio. We find that with few exceptions a devaluation fails to make any effect on output over any length of t…
