Review of International Economics, 2009, vol. 17, issue 1, 137-143

Abstract: This paper ranks Asian universities in two related economics fields: international economics and development economics. A key finding is that new latecomers rank atop the two specialty areas of economics. The results of the university ranking also establish that Zipf's law applies to research‐based school ranks.
