I find the appearance of this job advert on this listserv a bit odd.  In particular, unless I am mistaken, neither the A or B list of journals contain any journal in the history of economic thought/history of economics.  If publishing in such journals is not sufficient to gain the position advertised, then why is the advert being sent to this listserv.  In addition, the A classification of journals is all about mainstream economics, while the B classification of journals is, but 3-4 journals, also about mainstream journals.  However, many of members of this listserv are much broader/different from the mainstream economics.  So this advert may appear discriminatory to them.  Finally, this advert supports a paper coming out in the CJE that shows the growing hegemony of mainstream economics in Italian higher education and the consequence discrimination against non-mainstream/heterodox economists.  The question is, "does SHOE support this?"
