The Most-Cited Articles from the Minnesota Law Review
2015
On the occasion of the 100th anniversary of the Minnesota Law Review, this article spotlights some of the landmarks of the journal's history by presenting a tabulation of its fifty articles most often cited by other law review articles. The three most-cited of all these articles are Anthony G. Amsterdam, Perspectives on the Fourth Amendment; William L. Prosser, The Fall of the Citadel (Strict Liability to the Consumer); and Alan David Freeman, Legitimizing Racial Discrimination through Antidiscrimination Law: A Critical Review of Supreme Court Doctrine, all of which rank among the 100 most-cited articles of all time from any law review. A second list presents the ten Minnesota Law Review articles that have been most often cited by judicial opinions. This roster is headed by Vern Countryman, Executory Contracts in Bankruptcy: Part I, which has garnered the second-most judicial citations of any article from any law review and arguably should be considered to have the first-most such citations. Minnesota Law Review does extraordinarily well nationally in both of my two measures, placing sixth among all reviews in number of articles in the top 100 most cited by other articles and placing behind only Harvard Law Review in the impressiveness of its showing in articles most cited by courts. Comparative enumerations from the Washington and Lee Law Library journal citation database also demonstrate that Minnesota is among the most-cited law reviews in total citations over the last ten years.
