If turned down by a scholarly journal, would Galileo have
had any
legal recourse to get a paper published?
If his lawyer could demonstrate that the scientific
standards of
his work were commensurate in quality with other papers
published
in a particular journal, could he argue that only pressure
from
the church or even sincere opposition because of
contradiction of
church doctrine, was keeping him from being published?
Does anybody know if there is any legal recourse for a
privately
owned journal?
Does a journal's editor have a completely free hand?
