It's official, the Review of Economic Studies does not accept comment papers (unless they point out actual factual errors), according to my correspondence with an editor. In important ways, it's not really an academic journal. @RevEconStud #EconTwitter #EconReplicationCrisis
This isn't hard. If the RESTud doesn't accept comment papers, then people who do publish there now have an incentive to sneak papers past the referees which are obviously flawed. And people don't have incentive to replicate papers, since they cannot be published. #EconTwitter
It's no mystery why the editorial board refuses to accept comment papers. The benefit of being an editor is not the pride one takes in leaving one's intellectual stamp on the field, but rather the benefit one gets from giving favors to powerful people in the field. #Econtwitter
