Dani Rodrik's weblog: Scholarship vs. bloggership

  • my expectation was that blog popularity and scholarship would have little (or perhaps even a negative) correlation. After all, the skills of a blogger (writing quickly and well, working for short-term results, spending a lot of time reading and digesting others' work) are not necessarily those that a scholar who wants long-term impact needs to have. Plus, there is the time spent on the blog--which does mean less time for research.
  • the correlation between how well one does on bloggership and on scholarship turns out to be positive and statistically highly significant.
