<strong>The</strong> <strong>Economic</strong> Journal Referee <strong>Prize</strong><br />

<strong>The</strong> <strong>Economic</strong> Journal depends greatly on the service of its many referees<br />

for the functioning of the peer review process. While many referees help us<br />

tremendously with their comments, some of our referees contribute beyond<br />

the call of duty through their thoroughness and constructive feedback to<br />

the authors. This service in the profession rarely gets acknowledged. Starting<br />

in 2010, the <strong>Economic</strong> Journal now recognises the contribution of these<br />

exceptional referees with an annual referee prize of £500. We thank all of them<br />

for their outstanding support of the Journal, and the service they have provided<br />

to the authors.<br />
