Dear All
Perhaps an odd question this, but has anybody on the list submitted a
paper to David Morgan (University of NSW) for a special edition of
Critical Sociology on the subject of Critical Management Studies. To cut a
long story short, back in March 2004 a colleague and myself did, and we
are now starting to feel as though we have bought into a dodgy timeshare.
Having taken 11 months to get reviews back, we revised the paper but
received not even an acknowledgement for several months (despite repeated
e-mails), until eventually around last June we were told that it was all
fine and to expect the special issue to be published in 2006.
Nine months on we are unable to get any confirmation or indeed any reply
from either the special issue editor or his PA on the status of the issue,
and even the editor of the actual journal is in the dark about what is
going on. To repeat my question then, has anybody else had a similar
experience as we are increasingly starting to feel that we have been
caught up in some kind of academic hustle!
Best,
Philip
