REJOINDERS

PURPOSE OF THE REJOINDER SECTION

We invite readers to respond to any of the articles that appear in this journal. Because conversation takes place over time and builds on itself, this feature of our journal will be ongoing and readers are encouraged to submit responses to articles appearing in the current issue as well as any past issue. The Rejoinder Section will continue to put up new responses as long as the conversation continues on a topic. Please note that these responses are intended to be carefully thought-out analyses on some point made by the authors. Unlike a discussion forum, these papers will also undergo a refereed process.
