The "Grievance Studies" Affair was an academic hoax perpetrated by James A. Lindsay, Helen Pluckrose and Peter Boghossian on a series of academic fields which they termed “grievance studies”, a sub-category of race, gender, fat and sexuality studies in which they believed poor science was undermining the fields.[1] [2] Beginning in August 2017, the trio wrote 20 hoax papers, submitting them to peer-reviewed journals under a variety of pseudonyms, as well as the name of their friend Richard Baldwin, a professor emeritus at Florida’s Gulf Coast State College and friend of Boghossian. The project was halted early after one of the papers in the feminist geography journal Gender, Place and Culture was criticized on social media, and then its authenticity questioned on Campus Reform [3]. After this, the trio revealed the full extent of their work in a viral [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kVk9a5Jcd1k YouTube video] created and released by documentary filmmaker Mike Nayna, alongside an investigation by The Wall Street Journal[4]. By the time of the reveal seven of their 20 papers had been accepted, four had been published, one had won an award, and three were in the final stages of revision before formal acceptance [5] The papers made bizarre recommendations including chaining up children and keeping men on leashes. Another paper was accepted by leading feminist social work journal Affilia and added up-to-date jargon into passages lifted from Adolf Hitler’s “Mein Kampf.”"[6] The studies were variously praised by academic reviewers as “a rich and exciting contribution to the study of ... the intersection between masculinity and anality”, “excellent and very timely” and — in the case of feminist Mein Kampf — offering “important dialogue for social workers and feminist scholars”[7] [8] The project made international headlines, appearing on the front page of The New York Times[9] [10] and appearing in notable publications including The Australian [11], The Economist [12], The National Review [13], The Herald Sun [14], Daily Mirror [15], Buzzfeed [16], The Washington Post [17], Mother Jones [18], The Times [19], The Daily Mail [20], Slate [21], SBS [22] and The Atlantic [23] The project drew both praise and criticism, with author and Harvard lecturer Yascha Monk dubbing it 'Sokal squared' in reference to the famous Sokal Affair hoax perpetrated by Alan Sokol and said "The result is hilarious and delightful. It also showcases a serious problem with big parts of academia." Harvard psychologist Steven Pinker said the project posed the question "is there any idea so outlandish that it won’t be published in a Critical/PoMo/Identity/‘Theory’ journal?"[24] Slate criticised the project, saying "one could have run this sting on almost any empirical discipline and returned the same result"[25] References1. ^{{Cite news|url=https://www.economist.com/science-and-technology/2018/10/06/another-set-of-fake-papers-takes-aim-at-social-sciences-nether-regions|title=Another set of fake papers takes aim at social science’s nether regions|work=The Economist|access-date=2018-10-08|language=en}} 2. ^{{Cite web|url=https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1cJLr_o04R-zpHcMNaIWPGs7Ue_i-tkCw|title=Papers - Google Drive|website=drive.google.com|language=en|access-date=2018-10-08}} 3. ^{{Cite news|url=https://www.campusreform.org/?ID=11158|title=Academic journal duped by author of ‘dog rape culture’ article|date=2018-07-25|work=Campus Reform|access-date=2018-10-08|language=en-US}} 4. ^{{Cite news|url=https://www.wsj.com/articles/fake-news-comes-to-academia-1538520950|title=Opinion {{!}} Fake News Comes to Academia|last=Melchior|first=Jillian Kay|date=2018-10-05|work=Wall Street Journal|access-date=2018-10-08|language=en-US|issn=0099-9660}} 5. ^{{Cite web|url=https://www.theaustralian.com.au/news/inquirer/great-literary-hoaxes-sokal-squared-go-one-better-than-ern-malley-and-me/news-story/4cd862086bbe4b4c654d40d37daf7b27|title=Subscribe to The Australian {{!}} Newspaper home delivery, website, iPad, iPhone & Android apps|website=www.theaustralian.com.au|language=en|access-date=2018-10-08}} 6. ^{{Cite news|url=https://www.nytimes.com/2018/10/04/arts/academic-journals-hoax.html|title=Hoaxers Slip Breastaurants and Dog-Park Sex Into Journals|access-date=2018-10-08|language=en}} 7. ^{{Cite web|url=https://www.theaustralian.com.au/news/world/the-times/journal-publishes-hoax-gender-study/news-story/6ae3499a85c1105a3056a3b9fa07b8de|title=Subscribe to The Australian {{!}} Newspaper home delivery, website, iPad, iPhone & Android apps|website=www.theaustralian.com.au|language=en|access-date=2018-10-08}} 8. ^{{Cite web|url=https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1cJLr_o04R-zpHcMNaIWPGs7Ue_i-tkCw|title=Papers - Google Drive|website=drive.google.com|language=en|access-date=2018-10-08}} 9. ^{{Cite news|url=https://www.nytimes.com/2018/10/06/opinion/grievance-studies-hoax.html|title=Opinion {{!}} What the ‘Grievance Studies’ Hoax Really Shows|access-date=2018-10-08|language=en}} 10. ^{{Cite news|url=https://twitter.com/ChrisThinnes/status/1048269828052512768|title=chris thinnes on Twitter|work=Twitter|access-date=2018-10-08|language=en}} 11. ^{{Cite web|url=https://www.theaustralian.com.au/higher-education/a-degree-of-shame-as-academics-fall-for-grievance-studies-hoax/news-story/f5dd6380dac3cd42406ed21a689203f8|title=Subscribe to The Australian {{!}} Newspaper home delivery, website, iPad, iPhone & Android apps|website=www.theaustralian.com.au|language=en|access-date=2018-10-08}} 12. ^{{Cite web|url=https://www.theaustralian.com.au/higher-education/a-degree-of-shame-as-academics-fall-for-grievance-studies-hoax/news-story/f5dd6380dac3cd42406ed21a689203f8|title=Subscribe to The Australian {{!}} Newspaper home delivery, website, iPad, iPhone & Android apps|website=www.theaustralian.com.au|language=en|access-date=2018-10-08}} 13. ^{{Cite news|url=https://www.nationalreview.com/news/academics-expose-grievance-studies-field-by-submitting-hoax-papers-to-journals/|title=Academics Expose ‘Grievance Studies’ Field by Submitting Hoax Papers to Journals {{!}} National Review|date=2018-10-03|work=National Review|access-date=2018-10-08|language=en-US}} 14. ^{{Cite web|url=https://www.heraldsun.com.au/news/opinion/rita-panahi/academic-journal-hoax-has-exposed-a-world-of-nonsense/news-story/ab1926c416a74921895c8886561b600a|title=Heraldsun.com.au {{!}} Subscribe to the Herald Sun for exclusive stories|website=www.heraldsun.com.au|language=en|access-date=2018-10-08}} 15. ^{{Cite news|url=https://www.mirror.co.uk/news/us-news/hoaxers-fake-studies-dog-rape-13363893|title=Top journals publish fake studies on 'dog rape culture' and feminism via Hitler|last=Clarke-Billings|first=Lucy|date=2018-10-04|work=mirror|access-date=2018-10-08}} 16. ^{{Cite news|url=https://www.buzzfeednews.com/article/virginiahughes/grievance-studies-sokal-hoax|title=Here’s What Critics Say About That Big New Hoax On Gender Studies|work=BuzzFeed News|access-date=2018-10-08|language=en}} 17. ^{{Cite web|url=https://www.washingtonpost.com/outlook/2018/10/04/paper-that-would-never-have-gotten-past-peer-review-criticizes-academy-film/|title=Perspective {{!}} A paper that would never have gotten past peer review criticizes the academy.
