Hi Biella, Not a piece but still an enlightening read: go to ssrn.com and peruse the lists of top authors by downloads and abstract views. (You may have to set up an account to see this information.) In law, 2 of the top 100 are women; taking it through the top 200 gets you up to 22ish (apologies but I can't fully decode all of the names). In top authors overall, looks like ~8ish in the top 100 and 14ish in the top 200; again, there may be a few more that I'm just not recognizing. They also do an eigenfactor column and the rankings do shift a bit there, but not enough to disrupt the overall imbalance.

I thought I would pass on a few pieces that do deal with the fact that the omission and invisibility of female voices in journalism and journalistic writing is not a sporadic occurrence but a systematic one. If others have good pieces on the topic, I would love to see them. http://www.theatlantic.com/technology/archive/2016/02/gender-diversity-journ... http://democracyjournal.org/magazine/31/closed-network/ http://www.nytimes.com/2015/11/12/upshot/even-famous-female-economists-get-n...
