Puzzle: made by AI or not?

During work with our project 'People, place and plunder' about diaspora groups and Restitution, writes Swedish scholar Staffan Lundén, we have come upon two articles which are almost certainly written by AI.

The two articles: E

  • Echoes of Empire: The Politics of Repatriation and Decolonial Praxis in 21st-Century European Museums, https://enigma.or.id/index.php/cultural/article/view/107
  • The Afterlife of Objects: A Material Culture Analysis of Contested Artifacts in Diasporic Communities, https://enigma.or.id/index.php/cultural/article/view/112

Lunden further writes:

The extensive empirical work referred to (document analysis and interviews) is presumably non-existent.

And the whole journal looks dodgy, and for example, the first article refers to an article in this journal by a by Henry Peter Paul, University of Miami, who does not seem to exist.

We can list more reasons to believe these are fake articles.
