Abstract
We investigate the role that political ideology plays in the selection process for articles in law reviews. To do so, we match data on the political ideology of student editors from 15 top law reviews from 1990 to 2005 to data on the political ideology of the authors of accepted articles. We find that law reviews with a higher share of conservative editors accept a higher share of articles written by conservative authors. We then investigate potential explanations for this pattern. One possibility is that editors have a preference for publishing articles written by authors that share their ideology. Another possibility is that editors are objectively better at assessing the contribution of articles written by authors that share their ideology. We find evidence that the latter explanation drives the relationship between editor and author ideology. 政治意识形态与法律评论遴选过程
摘要本文探讨了政治意识形态在法律评论文章选择过程中的作用。为此，我们将1990年至2005年15篇顶级法律评论中学生编辑的政治意识形态数据与被接受文章作者的政治意识形态数据进行了匹配。我们发现，保守派编辑比例较高的法律评论接受保守派作者所写文章的比例较高。然后，我们研究这种模式的潜在解释。一种可能是，编辑们更喜欢发表与他们有共同意识形态的作者所写的文章。另一种可能性是，编辑客观上更善于评估与他们有共同意识形态的作者所写文章的贡献。我们发现后一种解释驱动了编辑与作者意识形态之间的关系。

期刊介绍：
The rise of the field of law and economics has been extremely rapid over the last 25 years. Among important developments of the 1990s has been the founding of the American Law and Economics Association. The creation and rapid expansion of the ALEA and the creation of parallel associations in Europe, Latin America, and Canada attest to the growing acceptance of the economic perspective on law by judges, practitioners, and policy-makers.
