The orchestrator for an AJS submission. Figure out the stage and the piece type, then send the user to the matching skill. AJS is the discipline's oldest journal — generalist sociology with a premium on theoretical ambition and a distinctive student-run, double-blind review run out of the University of Chicago Department of Sociology. The router's first job is to make sure the paper is in dialogue with current sociology (AJS "prejects" papers that are not).
