Microeconomics, Law and economics, Law, Industrial organization and Competition (economics) are the subjects of interest in The Journal of Law and Economics. The Microeconomics study tackling the subject of Monopoly is the focus of it.
The published papers primarily focus on research topics in Microeconomics, Government, Industrial organization, Public economics and Competition (economics). The published articles aim to address concerns in Microeconomics, specifically in the areas of Property rights, Incentive and Monopoly. The most cited publications address concerns in Property rights which are intertwined with other disciplines, such as Land law and Law and economics.
The Journal of Law and Economics primarily focuses on research topics in Accounting, Law, Supreme court, Shareholder and Criminology. Accounting research featured in it incorporates concerns from various other topics such as Survey data collection, Labour law, Set (psychology), Transparency (behavior) and Financial incentives. The studies on Law discussed can also contribute to research in the domains of Mental health and Public health.
The journal explores topics in Supreme court which can be helpful for research in disciplines like Enterprise value, Corporate governance, State (polity) and Law and economics. The journal explores issues in Shareholder which can be linked to other research areas like Action (philosophy), Proxy (statistics), Commission, Initial public offering and Block (telecommunications). Criminal history is part of Criminology studies tackled in the journal.
A key indicator for each journal is its effectiveness in reaching other researchers with the papers published at that venue.
The chart below presents the interquartile range (first quartile 25%, median 50% and third quartile 75%) of the number of citations of articles over time.
The top authors publishing in The Journal of Law and Economics (based on the number of publications) are:
The overall trend for top authors publishing in this journal is outlined below. The chart shows the number of publications at each edition of the journal for top authors.
Only papers with recognized affiliations are considered
The top affiliations publishing in The Journal of Law and Economics (based on the number of publications) are:
The overall trend for top affiliations publishing in this journal is outlined below. The chart shows the number of publications at each edition of the journal for top affiliations.
The publication chance index shows the ratio of articles published by the best research institutions in the journal edition to all articles published within that journal. The best research institutions were selected based on the largest number of articles published during all editions of the journal.
The chart below presents the percentage ratio of articles from top institutions (based on their ranking of total papers).Top affiliations were grouped by their rank into the following tiers: top 1-10, top 11-20, top 21-50, and top 51+. Only articles with a recognized affiliation are considered.
During the most recent 2021 edition, 93.75% of publications had an unrecognized affiliation. Out of the publications with recognized affiliations, 0.00% were posted by at least one author from the top 10 institutions publishing in the journal. Another 0.00% included authors affiliated with research institutions from the top 11-20 affiliations. Institutions from the 21-50 range included 0.00% of all publications and 100.00% were from other institutions.
A very common phenomenon observed among researchers publishing scientific articles is the intentional selection of journals they have already attended in the past. In particular, it is worth analyzing the case when the authors participate in the same journal from year to year.
The Returning Authors Index presented below illustrates the ratio of authors who participated in both a given as well as the previous edition of the journal in relation to all participants in a given year.
The graph below shows the Returning Institution Index, illustrating the ratio of institutions that participated in both a given and the previous edition of the conference in relation to all affiliations present in a given year.
Our experience to innovation index was created to show a cross-section of the experience level of authors publishing in a journal. The index includes the authors publishing at the last edition of a journal, grouped by total number of publications throughout their academic career (P) and the total number of citations of these publications ever received (C).
The group intervals were selected empirically to best show the diversity of the authors' experiences, their labels were selected as a convenience, not as judgment. The authors were divided into the following groups:
The chart below illustrates experience levels of first authors in cases of publications with multiple authors.
