Use when anticipating how a Comparative Political Studies (CPS) manuscript will be evaluated — desk screening, anonymous peer review, decision categories, and how reviewers judge comparative work. Calibrates expectations; it does not write the submission or the rebuttal.

# Review Process (cps-review-process)
Knowing how CPS evaluates a paper lets you preempt the objections before submitting. CPS uses
**anonymous peer review** via **SAGE Track (ScholarOne)**; the manuscript is screened by an editor first,
then sent to reviewers if it clears desk evaluation. Comparativists review for comparative leverage,
travel, and methodological soundness on the paper's own terms.
## When to trigger
- Before submission, to stress-test the paper against likely reviewer objections
- Deciding whether the paper is ready or needs another design/analysis loop
- Interpreting a decision letter and what each decision category means
- Anticipating reviewer disagreement across subfields/methods
