Why one should never try to publish in low-quality journals

 

Besides the aforementioned articles, my paper "R&D Spillovers and Information Exchange: a Case Study" (with Klaus Kultti and Tanja Tanayama) was accepted for the Greek Economic Review in 2005. It never came out for reasons unknown to me. Here is the Editor's acceptance letter.  Indeed, we had an RR from a much higher quality journal but in the hope of a quick publication we withdrew the paper and submitted for the GER.
