It seems to be a serious injustice that there are brilliant people outside academia who can't get their work published, meanwhile people within the system are shitting up journals stuff like this

This language is so formulaic. Every single phrase depends on some theory of political or social factors. You can't critique this paper in a scientific manner without using the same language. This is the opposite of science. Instead of clear, structured language seeking to describe reality succinctly these people publish byzantine texts that require a degree to decipher. Not one bit of this paper is reproducible or scientifically sound and not based on the personal feelings and preconceptions of the author.

The entire field of social studies needs to be condemned. Defund these people.

It's slowly eating away at the reputation of academia, and before you know it being published in an academic journal just won't carry any prestige or sense of official recognition, and serious people will find other means to communicate their research.
Institutions like that aren't set in stone.

Aims and scope

Dance Chronicle is an independent, peer-reviewed journal published three times a year by Routledge, an imprint of Taylor & Francis. Founded in 1977 by George Dorris and Jack Anderson, Dance Chronicle is one of only two journals covering the field of dance studies in the United States. The journal is international in scope and interdisciplinary in vision—as indicated by its subtitle Studies in Dance and the Related Arts—with a strength in historical research. Dance Chronicle accepts submissions on any topic related to the field of dance within historical or contemporary contexts. Strong submissions situate their arguments within established and emerging conversations on the aesthetic, social, economic, and political dimensions of dance. The journal welcomes interdisciplinary articles and submissions not only from scholars of dance, but also from those working in related disciplines, such as theater and performance studies, cultural studies, ethnic studies, gender studies, and history. Our purview encompasses research rooted in humanities-based paradigms including historical and ethnographic methodologies; quantitative or scientific articles fall outside the purview of the journal. The editors welcome submissions of original, scholarly research, reviews of recent books, and proposals for special issues that address specific topics within dance studies. The journal facilitates an ethical and rigorous review process that supports authors to produce sound, well-written articles. Book reviews and Witness/Experience essays are organized by associate editors. If you have an interest in reviewing a book or responding to an event, please first email one of the journal's editors.

Peer Review Policy:
All research papers in this journal have undergone editorial screening and peer review.

As someone with no history in higher education that paper is actually pretty easy to read, it's trying to sound sophisticated but a lot of the language is pretty basic. Shit doesn't hold a candle to the unreadability of the average STEM paper

>Booty dances have threatened the status quo by emphasizing group membership, the free movement of forceful Black bodies, and Afro-Diasporic counter-narratives. The Colombian mapalĂ©, or baile negro, is a case in point. MapalĂ© recalls the fish tail dances of the North American plantation; Davila writes that ‘the fish’s movements after they are captured resemble [the dance’s] pelvic and midriff contractions to the beat of the drum’ (Davila 2009, 120). ‘The only dance that was permitted during times of Spanish rule’, mapalĂ© became associated with rebellion through its liberatory insistence on the body’s value as a vector for the transmission of ancestral knowledge (Davila 2009, 120). ‘Where dance on a social level was criminalized, in MapalĂ©, it continues to be an indestructible force of Afro-Colombian identity within the fabric of the Atlantic Coast’ (Davila 2009, 134). The batuque, with its ‘artificial rotations and contortions of the hip’ was officially suppressed, as were candombe and the bongo (quoted in Röhrig Assunção 2003, 167). The consensus is that such dances cognate to twerk – as indicated by their names and presence among Bantu-language-speaking slaves – are Central African in origin. A number of scholars well versed in the matter have arrived at Kubik’s conclusion: ‘motional emphasis on the pelvis, buttocks, etc., especially pelvis thrusts or circular pelvis movements described in United States jazz dance history as “Congo grind” are always suspect of a Congo/Angola background’ (Kubik 1979, 20).

You recognize the words but that is all. Amongst social scientists these words have meanings specific to their discipline. The specialist usage of these words is one defense against critique. Because you might think you are formulating a good rebuttal but the scholar can simply turn around and retreat into academics.

Stuff like racism is prejudice plus power is a great example. Normal people read a paper from the social sciences where whiteness is described as something bad. We think, that that is clearly racist, as in, prejudiced against a certain race. But the social scientist can ignore accusations of racism because in his field racism is something else than in everyday use.

This is social "science". It has nothing to do with the hard sciences or mathematics. People shit on medicine for being non-rigorous at times, but these fields are on another planet.

The average STEM paper is not commenting on larger systems, it is only making narrow claims about its field using highly technical language understood by its small audience. Papers like these are aimed at a much wider audience and intend to have a social impact. I certainly cannot read high-level papers outside my field easily, but I can within my field.

There is also >>16268969. We mean highly specific things by our jargon which are easily falsifiable with new data. The typical social sciences response to criticism, even the empirical sort, is to pretend what you wrote means something else.

This paper is actually claiming that black asses, rather than vaginas, are magic. Maybe African vaginas will be the subject of a separate paper.

letting black and women into sciences was a mistake. they're just leeches and possibly detrimental to the pursue of human knowledge. is it a coincedence that science has been increasingly stagnant the more women and black allowed into academia? I think not. we most likely need a purge of those useless excrement from academia before any other breakthrough can be achieved.

It's a hideously vulgar animalistic mating ritual. So of course feminists love it. It's also a great example of feminist hypocrisy, seeing how twerking is literally appropriating chimpanzee culture.
