The Society introduced the prize in 1990,
the year of the Centenary Volume, and awarded it to the author of the
best (non-solicited) paper published in The Economic Journal over the
two-year period 1988-89. This format for the prize continued until 1995
and in 1996 the prize was awarded annually and the money was increased
to £3000. A small committee consisting of the President, the Managing
Editor of The Economic Journal and one member of the Society Council appointed
by them, awards the prize in the year following publication.
The 2007 RES Prize for the best non-solicited paper published in The Economic Journal was awarded at the recent RES conference at the University of Warwick. The prize went to Michele Piccione and Ariel Rubinstein for their paper "Equilibrium in the Jungle", vol. 117, p883
