MOVING TO FRONT FROM EARLIER TODAY--SEE KNOBE'S COMMENTS; ALSO COMMENTS ARE OPEN

Here, though it seems to have been limited to philosophy papers published only in 20 or so journals. You can guess why I noticed this, since my "Explaining Theoretical Disagreement," a paper in legal philosophy published in 2009, was cited 50 times, "The Demarcation Problem in Jurisprudence," another legal philosophy paper in 2011 cited 15 times, "Legal Realism and Legal Formalism: What is the Issue?" in 2010, another paper in legal philosophy was cited 40 times, and a paper with Michael Weisberg on legal theory and evolutionary biology in 2010, was cited 20 times. All four papers appeared in legal philosophy journals apparently omitted.

Vanity aside, the stunning thing to me on this list is the subject matter of most of the most-cited articles and what it says about the discipline in the Anglophone world.
