Abstract

This note analyses how the allocation of research funding across disciplines in 2022 came about following the UK Research Excellence Framework (REF). There are two, related issues. First, REF2021 led to substantial changes in funding allocations across disciplines, particularly in Social Sciences. Second, economics emerges as the biggest, relative loser in terms of total funding
