“…One of the most researched factors in academic hiring is related to institutional or departmental prestige; however, these studies have almost exclusively focused on the American context. The common conclusion in the literature is that a “prestige principle” plays a prominent role in the stratification of the higher education system; that is, the prestige of one's graduating institution is a significant determinant of the prestige of one's employing institution (Baldi ; Burris ; Han :251; Headworth and Freese ). Status‐based inequalities in academia are reproduced through hiring practices that often reward institutional prestige above other indicators of merit related to human and social capital (Baldi ).…”

“…; Emerson ; Han ; Hutson ; Oprisko ). According to Han (), sociology and psychology tend to have less stable and more decentralized prestige hierarchies compared to economics, which has the most rigid structure that privileges graduates from elite institutions. This suggests that prestige rankings in sociology are often less consensual, although the structure of the American job market in this field remains largely hierarchical (Fourcade, Ollion, and Algan ).…”

“…Wie Han (2003) anhand eines disziplinübergreifenden Vergleichs zeigt, zählt die Ökonomie nicht nur zu den Disziplinen mit einer ausgeprägten Reputationshierarchie (vertikale Achse); darüber hinaus finden die Zirkulationen von Ph.D-KandidatInnen 1 vor allem innerhalb der durch die Reputationshierarchie gebildeten Klassen statt (horizontale Achse) (siehe Abb. Elitisierung bedeutet nicht nur Hierarchisierung, sondern bezeichnet in erster Linie einen Trend zur Insulierung bzw.…”

“…Damit scheint sich in der deutschsprachigen Welt der VWL ein Trend zu wiederholen, der bereits typisch für die elitisierten amerikanischen Departments ist (Han 2003). Folgen wir der Idee der "Leistungsgerechtigkeit", die dem Elitekult zugrunde liegt, dann führen alle Wege in die Zentren der akademischen Elite über die persönlich erbrachte Leistung in der Wissenschaft; ein Blick auf die Biographie der dort forschenden Personen offenbart jedoch, dass der Weg etwa nach Mannheim vor allem über Bonn, München, Frankfurt oder eine angelsächsische Universität (etwa die LSE oder die Doktorandenschule in Florenz) führt.…”

“…In part this is the result of the extremely hierarchical structure of economics as a scientific enterprise. The top American economics departments represent the vast majority of the authoritative work produced by the discipline, and they exercise a considerable amount of hierarchical control over the rest of the field (Whitley 1983(Whitley , 1984Han 2003). As suggested earlier individual researchers in these institutions exhibit a large degree of consensus about the procedures that are necessary to achieve "science" in economics.…”
