Mirucki, Jean (2000): Editorial Preferences Towards "Industrial Organization" in Selected Journals. Published in: Rivista di Scienza Ekonomiche e Comerciali , Vol. 17, No. 1 (2000): pp. 167-175.

Abstract

This empirical study evaluates the relative importance of articles in Industrial Organization published in major generalist or specialized scientific joumals, using the new 1991 J.E.L. classification system. Contributions are regrouped according to the type of article: theoretical analysis (L100-L390); public policy (L400-LS90); industry studies (L600-L990). A rate of multiple reference index has been introduced to examine the degree of relationship between those three categories and used as a proxy.
