Positions academic manuscripts within the innovation-studies literature to meet Research Policy journal standards and avoid desk rejection.
Research Policy Literature Positioning guides academic researchers in framing and anchoring their manuscripts within the innovation-studies and SPRU canon. It helps authors identify substantive theoretical tensions and knowledge gaps rather than superficial data gaps, differentiates contributions from sibling journals like Strategic Management Journal (SMJ) or Technovation, and ensures deep engagement with seminal innovation literature to prevent desk rejections and referee pushback.
