Senior scholars: I know that the publishing and peer review system is broken. But opting out of a broken system doesn’t hurt Elsevier/Sage/etc—it hurts junior scholars just trying to get papers out there.

I'm handling a manuscript and have invited seventeen reviewers. So far, the responses are: no response, declined, declined, no response, declined, declined, declined, declined, declined, no response, no response. One person has turned in a review and I'm still trying to find a second reviewer.

Especially for society journals that aren't part of that system!
