Abstract

In this edition, we invite you to reflect on an aspect we have observed across various publications in the field of Administration and related areas: the scant attention paid to the limitations of individual research papers submitted to academic journals. This observation stems from specific instances or anecdotal evidence—lacking robust, in-depth, and specific substantiation, yet readily apparent. Thus, this text itself serves as a reflection on the limited way in which the limitations of studies—whether scientific articles or technological reports—are addressed.
