It refers to the obsession of the profession of academic economists with the so-called &#8220;top5&#8221; journals, also referred to as &#8220;top general-interest&#8221; journals. This paper offers some thoughts regarding the notion of &#8220;general-interest&#8221; in economics and discusses some of the practices in these journals.]]></p></abstract>
