Professor Colander’s highly topical assessment relies on his observations of Economics departments in the US. He aptly observes that departments and scholars in second-tier schools there may be more successful by focusing on topics/fields that are locally important instead of trying to be generalists, like the researchers in first-tier schools. In this way, they can transform themselves into top research and education institutions, each in a focused research area (as in the example of Oil Economics), and have their students and faculty sought after. I fully agree with this assessment.
