How come Wharton assistant professors, 4 years after graduating from a PhD program serve on the JAE editorial board? In the past only serious folks were on the board, when it had only 27-30 folks not 48. This is a joke
Difficult to achieve diversity when there are only old dudes (and a few ladies that have to serve everywhere anyway)

No wonder people with 3 papers are editors at TAR
Someone wrote TAR fuked up this time with ugly ladies.

The top six all have pretty unique taste functions. Some have lifetime editors that make those tastes more rigid. I think that’s why many have a hard time accepting that the top 3 is necessarily “better.”
JAR - requires an exogenous shock, cares about identification at the expense of generalizability, also follows CLs pet topics like ESG and fair value
JAE - still focused on identification but less than JAR. Follows old school Rochester view of agency theory, nexus of contracting, rational behavior, theory at the expense of practical application, not a fan of anomalies or empirical regularities without theory
TAR/CAR - most wide open in terms taking all types of papers, probably because editors turn over a lot, and they work hard to have a diverse editorial slate. So harder to predict what the taste function is. The issue with stricter editor terms is more variance in quality and the more potential for favor trading.
RAST - focused mainly on financial archival but much more open to interesting empirical regularities motivated by logic rather than theory, less concerned about endogeneity, more interested in practical insights
AOS - focused mainly on non archival research. Otherwise similar to RAST.
SPOT ON
I mean, basically JAR and JAE are run by second class citizens at elite business schools who are constantly told that accounting is derivative and that economics and finance are so much better. So they turn their nose up to actual accounting papers and want the accounting literature to look like econ and finance.
ALSO SPOT ON
Really? What does "serious people" mean? It has always been the same connection system. You're part of the network, then your papers are published, you're an AE or an Editor, your work is cited, and others view you (you are promoted) as a "serious" person. It is the same old system. There has never been anything really serious. To some extent, it has been much worse under RW.

The publications used to come before the appointment to the board.

wow. How come she is an editor at TAR?
also BC at Utah for two terms？ he publishes more after becoming AE than so many years in total before.
So what?How about MD from Illinois who has never published in TAR but was at Florida with RK.
So…not qualified to be editor at TAR but the guy picking the editors gave it to him. He has like 3 top pubs total?
So what?
How about MD from Illinois who has never published in TAR but was at Florida with RK.
So how about like a minimum standard… you must have published a paper in the journal at least once to be editor.
The TAR network is defn different from JAR/JAE and rotates. But it still very much “friends of editor.”
Then nominate your friend.

No, then the value of Top 5 journals goes down. People who made tenure and enjoyed all good things do not want that.
Most people want tenure. Great suggestion otherwise…Everyone whining about the main journals, send your stuff elsewhere. JFR, JAAF, Horizons, EAR, whatever.
lobby to make some of these A
Holy f/u/c/k/i/n/g c/r/a/p - I didn't think that even the m/o/r/o/n/s on this site could be so stupid as to think their voting for journals to be A makes an iota of difference to non-m/o/r/o/n/s. First, the m/o/r/o/n/s on the tenure committee at your schools should actually read papers to grade them (but they will not). Second, if paper grades are instead based on the journal the paper is published in, the impact of the journal and its quality ranking from non-m/o/r/o/n/s (i.e., folks not at the schools most of you will ever work at) will obviously be deterministic.
