Dear colleagues,

I just wanted to draw your attention on a recent European Science
Foundation initiative to build up a European Reference Index for the
Humanities (ERIH). This is basically a list of journals ranked from A to C
in various fields, among which "History and Philosophy of Science"

The stated purposes of this ranking is "to help identify excellence in
humanities scholarship and should prove useful for the aggregate
benchmarking of national research systems, for example, in determining the
international standing of the research activity carried out in a given
field in a particular country. As they stand, the lists are not a
bibliometric tool. The ERIH Steering Committee and the Expert Panels
therefore advise against using the lists as the only basis for assessment
of individual candidates for positions or promotions or of applicants for
research grants."

There is no History of economics journal in the list and as for
methodology only _Economics and Philosophy_ features. Further information
can be found here:
