The Grievance Studies affair, also known as the Sokal Squared hoax, refers to a controversial academic project undertaken by three scholars: Peter Boghossian, James Lindsay, and Helen Pluckrose. In 2017, they aimed to expose what they viewed as a lack of rigor in certain fields of the humanities and social sciences, particularly those related to identity politics, gender studies, and cultural studies.
