I'm not sure what this means tho. We targeted fields as diverse as geography and social work. The only thing they had to have in common was a journal which focused on identity studies of some kind within its scope. I'm sure you'll appreciate that we couldn't submit out of scope.

I think Phoebe's point is that having a scope beyond which you didn't submit necessarily means you haven't shown there's a difference between what is in scope and what is not in scope.
-
My perspective is that you had an appropriate scope because you would have had diminishing returns on your effort outside that scope.

We;d just have got desk rejected. If we'd sent a paper of the social construction of masculinity to an economics journal, they'd have returned it and pointed out they were an economics journal.

That's not even close to what I'm suggesting... I get the impression that you think I'm arguing against you somehow... but I'm arguing *for* you. I agree with everything you've said. I'm defending your work here
-
I don't necessarily think you're against us! You made it clear you weren't from the start. I think you've misunderstood the scope of our project and am trying to set out very clearly why we couldn't do what you suggest.
-
I think I was a little bit off on the scope of your project.
-
Yes. I apologise if I kind of machine-gunned you in explaining this. I've been told I do this although I am aiming to be clear and comprehensive rather than aggressive and this is clearer when you can hear me rather than reading me.

But I did feel the need to break down why it doesn't make sense to ask why we didn't send papers to other fields to demonstrate grievance studies alone has problems. It's coz we can only get these papers in journals which accept them & are not claiming GS alone has problems.
