A book! A comic! A hybrid-book-comic-essay thing!
You know how you sometimes only look at the pictures when you buy an academic book? Well here you are ENCOURAGED to! The main arguments are in the comics, the text offers references, methods & background.
Available from EPFLPress & soon internationally via Chicago University Press (pre-order available).
Liebe Editor*innen, Conference Chairs und akademische Verleger*innen – wenn ihr wissenschaftliche Arbeiten zur doppelblinden anonymen #PeerReview-Begutachtung verschickt, achtet doch bitte darauf, dass die PDF-Dateien keine Metadaten enthalten, aus denen man die Namen oder Zugehörigkeiten der Autor*innen ablesen kann.
Ansonsten weiß man halt, wer das Paper geschrieben hat und die ganze weitere Anoymisierung ist für die Katz.
Vielen Dank an alle.
One more step in the long story: unboxing the English-language book born out of this slow wander Along The Line!
Why yes, I spent half a day chasing and reading some obscure sources. So that I may now transform a reasonably clear sentence that states something quite obvious into a whole new paragraph that will hopefully please the reviewer and their besties. Still love this job. #AcademicWriting #AcademicChatter.

Great news indeed, b/c a) re-connecting with m̶y̶ ̶t̶r̶i̶b̶e̶ the @ecpr SG #Extremism & #Democracy and b) London!! But also c) someone volunteered me for panel chair (fair enough) and d) now I actually have to write the bloody paper #AcademicWriting #AcademicChatter
So, who else is going?

Leute, seit wann sind JPEG-Dateien das einzig wahre Grafikformat beim wissenschaftlichen Schreiben und wann haben Verlage aufgehört, den anerkannten Stand der Technik umzusetzen und Vektorgrafiken für "Line Art" zu benutzen?
I'm thinking of creating a sort of pledge/agreement to use with both academic collaborators as well as grad students, where we (the collaborating team or the student and I) would pledge to never use generative AI in our work.
That would mean I would not collaborate with other researchers who want to use these tools, and I would not supervise students who want to use these tools.
I'm curious to hear thoughts on this.

Hey academics (esp social sciences, humanities). What do you do when a peer reviewer has asked you to do something to your paper that *really* doesn’t work? Suspect one of my reviewers had a particular perspective that I do not share. I’ve attempted what they asked me to do, and I’m not sure it works for my article. I know I can tell the editors that I decided against, but I wondered what others have done in this scenario. (I had two very different reviewers…) #AcademicWriting
