Using the Journal Review Process to Improve Your Paper

How can one use the journal review process to improve a manuscript for publication? What are good strategies for responding to reviewers and editors? How to choose the right journal for the paper? And what about working with co-authors? These and other questions will be addressed in this professional development seminar, led by Professor David Stark. Participants in the seminar will have access to the complete correspondence between Stark and the editors and reviewers (across two rounds of revise and resubmit) for a manuscript that became a prize-winning article published in the American Journal of Sociology. The seminar is targeted to senior researchers, postdocs, and PhD students in their second or third year.
