How does an AMR manuscript differ from a literature review?

The purpose of a literature review is to comprehensively examine and organize the literature in a particular area with the goal of generating future research. Although a brief review of the literature is required in an AMR manuscript, the purpose of the literature review in an AMR manuscript is to provide a clear and current understanding of the conversation that the author(s) wishes to engage in. The majority of the manuscript should be spent using logic and prior work to build new arguments supporting theory or conceptual insight. It is then incumbent on the author(s) to explain clearly how their insights change the conversation.
