Use when anticipating referee objections for a Journal of Economic Geography (JEG) manuscript, where the panel typically pairs an economist with a geographer. Maps likely cross-disciplinary objections to fixes; it does not invent results.

# Referee Strategy (jegeo-referee-strategy)

## When to trigger

- Before submission, to pre-empt the objections a two-community panel will raise
- The paper leans heavily toward one tradition and you need to armor the side a hostile referee will attack
- You want to decide which robustness/exhibit work is worth doing *now* vs. holding for an R&R
- You are choosing which reviewers to suggest or oppose for a JEG submission

## The defining feature: you will face both communities

JEG's review almost always pairs **an economist** and **a geographer** (the board is drawn from both, and editors deliberately route across the bridge). Their objections are systematically different, and a paper that satisfies one often provokes the other. Plan for both, in one manuscript, under **double-anonymous** review.
