Apsr Literature Positioning

Category: Product  ·  Sub-category: product-misc  ·  Last updated:
type:review
Use when positioning an American Political Science Review (APSR) manuscript against the literature so it reads as a discipline-wide contribution. APSR readers span subfields, so the paper must engage the literatures they expect and avoid the desk-rejection trigger of "failure to engage the relevant literatures." Stakes the contribution; it does not write the lit review.

From the source SKILL.md

APSR's peer-review policy lists "failure to engage the relevant literature(s)" as an explicit desk-rejection ground. Positioning is therefore not throat-clearing — it is survival. The goal is to place the paper where a general political-science audience can see the gap and the move.

What this skill does

Apsr Literature Positioning is a community-contributed Claude Code skill in the product-misc sub-category. It ships as a SKILL.md file that Claude Code auto-discovers under ~/.claude/skills/apsr-literature-positioning/ and loads when your prompt matches the skill's trigger.
