Dear NBER family members,

It is the time of the year to nominate papers for the best paper in the
each of the four American Economic Journals.
*Nominations must be received by February 15. *

Papers can be nominated by any member of the AEA. The board of each of the
journal then vote among the papers that have been nominated.

The recipient is honored at the AEA meeting, and it is a great way to
recognize a paper you liked in the journals.

Last year, the winners were:

*AEJ: Macro*, 1(2), "A Century of Work and
Leisure<http://www.aeaweb.org/articles.php?doi=10.1257/mac.1.2.189>"
