Abstract
In a recent paper in formal of Productivity Analysis, Seiford (1996) a ssessed some DEA publications as being the most influential by intervi ewing a sample of researchers ''in an attempt to establish a consensus .'' In this note I compare Seiford's ranking with an alternative bibli ometric ranking based on the Social Science Citation Index. The altern ative quantitative ranking is very different from Seiford's qualitativ e ranking.
