Abstract
American economists take a dominant position among eminent economists. According toBlaug's Who's Who in Economics, among, living economists the share amounts to more than two thirds, and over one half of all eminent economists since 1700. Part of this dominance may be attributed to factors such as the definition of ‘eminence’, the underlying sample of scholars, and the language and style representing barriers to entry for non-American economists. However, the major reason consists in the favourable conditions for good research which in turn are based on the beneficial economic, political and social framework existing in North America.
