It does not matter at all. Different journals have different styles and focuses; you don't really have an answer if you want to find a winner between the best apple in the world and the best orange in the world.
【在 a*****5 的大作中提到】 : I know AER is one of the top journals. Is it the NO. 1 in Economics?
You have your point. Let me rephrase my question: Both AER and QJE are generic econ. journals and are regarded as the top ones in the field. Do you think that AER is more prestigious than QJE?

Both QJE and JPE are so called "club" journals as they are associated with specific departments; basically among the top 4 or 5, you really cannot compare them, they are different but not necessarily rank-able.
Nope. JPE is as good as AER if not better than and clearly better than QJE.

The degree of discrimination in economics publishing is very high. It is difficult for a scholar from low-tier universities to publish at AER. I have the following story. One scholar used to teach at a top 10 US university and published at a top journal many times. Later on, he moved to a lower rank university and could not publish at that top journal any more. He felt quite upset: he thought his research was improving over time, the only thing changed is the university he works at.
