      But the erroneously-named peer-reviewed Cogent Social Science journal fell for it. Is anyone surprised? http://www.skeptic.com/reading_room/conceptual-penis-social-contruct-sokal-style-hoax-on-gender-studies/ …

      It's not peer-reviewed, though, it's pay-to-publish.

          I'll read it if you can find me a single positive reference on Twitter to Cogent Social Science. It's not a journal with any credibility

          It just describes the peer-review process. You don't have to read it if you don't want to.

          It's "peer review" in name only, and well-known as a predatory scam journal. Hoaxing it is like hoaxing a bot.

          They were required to make changes. To make it even more nuts. And one of the two aims was to demonstrate the low quality of pay-to-publish

          Then why is it being painted as a Sokal-style indictment of the social sciences themselves?

          Have you read the rationale for it yet?

          Cogent is a scam journal that no on in the GS field holds in repute or even *has heard of*. So just what has been hoaxed here?

          Ask the people arguing that Cogent was right to take it because it makes an excellent argument even if the authors don't believe in it.
