"One of the biggest issues is how intellectual labour is classified. Research assistants, local collaborators, and community partners, especially those from the Global South, are often seen as data collectors rather than co-creators of knowledge." Nice piece. blogs.lse.ac.uk/impactofsoci...

“Imagine you’re trying to pass an exam that has a particular pass rate, and you add as many questions as you want. You see which ones you got right, and you remove the ones that you got wrong. That’s basically what they’re doing,”

Funny that this only applies to manuscripts with a CC BY licence so there's nothing to stop you freely depositing the paper with a different CC licence including CC0.

Thing is, it wouldn't actually take that much for an organisation like the Centre for Open Science to issue a statement on how "gold-standard science" is a dangerous corruption of open science, not least because it elides issues of social and epistemic injustice that are integral to openness.

To inflict the worst pain imaginable on thousands of people, and then to tell us that we are wrong to feel outraged—it’s a murderous nihilism that shakes the moral foundation of the entire world. It’s unbearable.

It is with profound sadness that we learned about the passing of our beloved friend, colleague, and mentor, Mario Biagioli. Mario was a pre-eminent scholar in many fields of inquiry: history of science, science studies, media studies, and the interdisciplinary study of intellectual properties. 1/2

You could literally use this story for a course on current issues in scholarly publishing: preprints, peer review, AI, fraud, early-career incentives, internal investigations. It's got the lot.

Looking forward to soon replacing "should" with "will". "non-commercial open access routes, like the “diamond” model, should be promoted, and research assessments should shift away from focusing on journal rankings to encourage more responsible research dissemination." doi.org/10.1590/0001...
