Individual skill
jbv-literature-positioning
Use when positioning a Journal of Business Venturing (JBV) manuscript in the entrepreneurship literature — joining a live conversation, problematizing assumptions instead of gap-spotting, and engaging across economics, psychology, and sociology. Positions the paper; it does not derive the mechanism (jbv-theory-development) or state the contribution claim (jbv-contribution-framing).

# Literature Positioning (jbv-literature-positioning)
## When to trigger
- Your introduction reads as "X is understudied in entrepreneurship" (gap-spotting)
- Reviewers say you "ignore the canonical entrepreneurship conversation"
- You cite only one discipline when the phenomenon spans several
- You are unsure which scholarly conversation your paper actually joins
## Join a conversation, do not spot a gap
At an FT50 entrepreneurship flagship, "no one has studied this" is a weak motivation. Instead:
- **Problematize**: surface and challenge an assumption the entrepreneurship field takes for granted (e.g., that opportunities are discovered vs. created, that VC signals quality, that more resources always help nascent ventures). Problematization beats gap-filling.
