Rossoni, R. A. Rosa INTRODUÇÃO Nesse aspecto, um dos propósitos centrais dos periódicos científicos está na sua função Periódicos científicos constituem uma das enquanto canal de comunicação do discurso peças fundamentais da comunicação científica. acadêmico das comunidades, isto é, de representar e refletir em seu processo discursivo e estrutura É por meio dos periódicos que as diferentes os padrões, critérios e pensamentos pertencentes comunidades acadêmicas se organizam na ao campo social simbólico de pesquisadores que produção e disseminação do conhecimento compartilham significados similares (Harrison & científico (Vessuri, 1995); tornam-se meios Stephen, 1995). A RAC tem se diferenciado desde legítimos de representação daquilo que seus sua gênese, especialmente por refletir, por meio membros consideram útil e válido enquanto da idealização de seus próprios membros, os ciência, refletindo a identidade social dos anseios e necessidades da comunidade científica pesquisadores de determinado campo científico de administração no preenchimento de lacunas (Ashforth & Mael, 1989; Bourdieu, 1975; Giampapa, deixadas por outros periódicos e canais de 2011). Não obstante, um dos desafios centrais dos comunicação científicos. Ela se destaca também periódicos está na constituição de sua identidade pelos seus impactos e pela percepção de utilidade frente à sua própria comunidade, na busca de sua pelos seus membros enquanto canal legítimo do distinção perante os demais (Faems, Filatotchev, processo discursivo de comunicação entre os Harley, & Siegel, 2016). pares, desenvolvendo, assim, uma identidade Em face de tal desafio, buscamos reconstituir única que perdura até os dias de hoje. o surgimento da Revista de Administração A partir do conceito de impressão Contemporânea (RAC) para compreender como organizacional desenvolvido por Stinchcombe sua identidade, enquanto periódico científico (1965) e da análise empírica de suas características generalista de administração, desenvolveu-se ao essenciais, contribuímos para o entendimento de longo dos anos. Para tanto, assumimos que sua como as organizações se originam e persistem a gênese se deu no seio da própria comunidade partir de certas características herdadas de seu científica (Guimarães, Motta, Farias, Kimura, ambiente, aqui representadas pela compreensão Quintella, & Carneiro, 2018), representada pela da gênese, impacto e identidade da Revista Associação Nacional de Pós-Graduação e Pesquisa de Administração Contemporânea (RAC). Ao em Administração (Anpad). Consequentemente, investigarmos essas três dimensões centrais, as exigências e pressões existentes no próprio desvelamos a trajetória única e peculiar de contexto ambiental da formação da Anpad constituição da identidade de um periódico imprimiram na RAC seus elementos constitutivos. científico. Consequentemente, apontamos como a concepção identitária de um periódico, visto aqui Tratar da RAC enquanto periódico que como uma organização, manifesta-se em todas as carrega sua própria identidade e relevância em seu suas ações editoriais, em que qualquer produto, contexto de atuação é antes de tudo compreender processo ou resultado que se desdobre de sua sua gênese no berço da comunidade em que se ação, conscientemente ou não, mantém coerência formou. A consolidação de um periódico científico com aquilo que é distintivo e essencial. reside principalmente no desafio de estabelecer Para representar as contribuições centrais sua legitimidade na comunidade científica em que de nosso trabalho, dividimos o artigo em três pretende lograr êxito. Aqui, portanto, a noção de principais partes. Na primeira, buscamos resgatar comunidade é central no estabelecimento do nexo a criação da RAC a partir de sua gênese, que se entre a criação da RAC e o seu desenvolvimento deu no âmago do processo de institucionalização no contexto acadêmico de administração no da Anpad; nesta parte, demonstramos que as Brasil. De acordo com Harrison e Stephen características e o posicionamento do periódico (1995), as comunidades se constituem enquanto frente aos demais refletiam fortemente as sistemas simbólicos compartilhados que buscam preocupações centrais da comunidade acerca do representar diversificadas maneiras pelas quais seu ambiente socialmente construído desde sua os grupos sociais se organizam e se distinguem origem. Em segundo lugar, evidenciamos por meio em nossa sociedade. Pertencer a uma comunidade da ideia de impacto acadêmico e social as principais implica que determinadas pessoas ou organizações marcas deixadas pela RAC frente à sua comunidade serão membros e outras não, diferenciando- e entornos, ou seja, sua trajetória e contribuição se principalmente por meio das fronteiras enquanto periódico científico de relevância estabelecidas pelas atividades simbólicas dos dentro e fora do contexto acadêmico brasileiro grupos, ou seja, por meio de modos específicos de administração.

  • Library Genesis and Sci-Hub
    In solidarity with Library Genesis and Sci-Hub In Antoine de Saint Exupéry's tale the Little Prince meets a businessman who accumulates stars with the sole purpose of being able to buy more stars. The Little Prince is perplexed. He owns only a flower, which he waters every day. Three volcanoes, which he cleans every week. "It is of some use to my volcanoes, and it is of some use to my flower, that I own them," he says, "but you are of no use to the stars that you own". There are many businessmen who own knowledge today. Consider Elsevier, the largest scholarly publisher, whose 37% profit margin1 stands in sharp contrast to the rising fees, expanding student loan debt and poverty-level wages for adjunct faculty. Elsevier owns some of the largest databases of academic material, which are licensed at prices so scandalously high that even Harvard, the richest university of the global north, has complained that it cannot afford them any longer. Robert Darnton, the past director of Harvard Library, says "We faculty do the research, write the papers, referee papers by other researchers, serve on editorial boards, all of it for free … and then we buy back the results of our labour at outrageous prices."2 For all the work supported by public money benefiting scholarly publishers, particularly the peer review that grounds their legitimacy, journal articles are priced such that they prohibit access to science to many academics - and all non- academics - across the world, and render it a token of privilege.3 Elsevier has recently filed a copyright infringement suit in New York against Science Hub and Library Genesis claiming millions of dollars in damages.4 This has come as a big blow, not just to the administrators of the websites but also to thousands of researchers around the world for whom these sites are the only viable source of academic materials.

  • Sci-Hub and Libgen: What If… Why Not?
    Submitted on: 06.09.2017 Satellite Meeting: Serials and Other Continuing Resources Section & Acquisition and Collection Development Open Access: Action Required Date: 16-17 August 2017 Location: European Solidarity Center (ESC), Gdańsk (Poland) Sci-Hub and LibGen: what if… why not? Louis Houle McGill Library, McGill University, Montreal (Quebec), Canada. E-mail address: [email protected] Copyright © 2017 by Louis Houle. This work is made available under the terms of the Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International License: http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0 Abstract: Open Access is becoming the predominant form of getting access to peer reviewed articles. Many new non-traditional tools (institutional repositories, social media, and peer to peer sites) are available out there to retrieve the full-text of peer reviewed articles. Since the launch of Sci-Hub (2011) and Library Genesis (LibGen), several criticisms have been raised both from the library and publishing worlds. Some court decisions have also been rendered to block the access of such platforms in different countries. What can be said in terms of content, coverage, reliability, stability and currency of both Sci-Hub and LibGen? In this era of severe budget constraints and economic recessions that libraries are facing, can we imagine of substituting some or most of our journal collection funds with the “open and free access” that Sci-Hub and LibGen is giving us? How much overlap between our collections and what is available through Sci-Hub and LibGen? This article reports on preliminary results1 of a one year study with Sci-Hub, LibGen and of Google Scholar (GS) where 2,750 random samples (peer reviewed journal articles) coming from fifty-five different databases covering all disciplines (Arts & Humanities, Law, Music, Social Sciences and STM) were tested against those platforms.

  • History of the Journal Impact Factor: Contingencies and Consequences1
    History of the journal impact factor: Contingencies and consequences1 Éric Archambault, a,b and Vincent Larivière, b,c a Science-Metrix, Montréal, Québec (Canada) b Observatoire des sciences et des technologies (OST), Centre interuniversitaire de recherche sur la science et la technologie (CIRST), Université du Québec à Montréal, Montréal, Québec (Canada) c School of Information Studies, McGill University, Montréal, Québec (Canada) Abstract This paper examines the genesis of journal impact measures and how their evolution culminated in the journal impact factor (JIF) produced by the Institute for Scientific Information. The paper shows how the various building blocks of the dominant JIF (published in the Journal Citation Report - JCR) came into being. The paper argues that these building blocks were all constructed fairly arbitrarily or for different purposes than those that govern the contemporary use of the JIF. The results are a faulty method, widely open to manipulation by journal editors and misuse by uncritical parties. The discussion examines some solution offered to the bibliometrics and scientific communities considering the wide use of this indicator at present.

  • Genesis of Altmetrics Or Article‑Level Metrics for Measuring
    JSCIRES PERSPECTIVE PAPER Genesis of altmetrics or article‑level metrics for measuring efficacy of scholarly communications: Current perspectives Anup Kumar Das*, Sanjaya Mishra1 Centre for Studies in Science Policy, School of Social Sciences, Jawaharlal Nehru University, 1Commonwealth Educational Media Centre for Asia, New Delhi, India ABSTRACT The article‑level metrics (ALMs) or altmetrics becomes a new trendsetter in recent times for measuring the impact of scientific publications and their social outreach to intended audiences. The popular social networks such as Facebook, Twitter, and Linkedin and social bookmarks such as Mendeley and CiteULike are nowadays widely used for communicating research to larger transnational audiences. In 2012, the San Francisco Declaration on Research Assessment got signed by the scientific and researchers communities across the world. This declaration has given preference to the ALM or altmetrics over traditional but faulty journal impact factor (JIF)‑based assessment of career scientists. JIF does not consider impact or influence beyond citations count as this count reflected only through Thomson Reuters’ Web of Science® database. Furthermore, JIF provides indicator related to the journal, but not related to a published paper. Thus, altmetrics now becomes an alternative metrics for performance assessment of individual scientists and their contributed scholarly publications. This paper provides a glimpse of genesis of altmetrics in measuring efficacy of scholarly communications and highlights available altmetric tools and social platforms linking altmetric tools, which are widely used in deriving altmetric scores of scholarly publications. The paper thus argues for institutions and policy makers to pay more attention to altmetrics based indicators for evaluation purpose but cautions that proper safeguards and validations are needed before their adoption.

Sci-Hub has grown rapidly since its creation in 2011, but the extent of its coverage was unclear. Here we report that, as of March 2017, Sci-Hub's database contains 68.9% of the 81.6 million scholarly articles registered with Crossref and 85.1% of articles published in toll access journals. We find that coverage varies by discipline and publisher, and that Sci-Hub preferentially covers popular, paywalled content. For toll access articles, we find that Sci-Hub provides greater coverage than the University of Pennsylvania, a major research university in the United States.

With the sharply increasing importance of academic rankings, we seek to answer the following questions: What is the origin of academic ranking? How did it evolve from a local initiative into an international one? How have the agencies responsible for academic ranking developed? Despite this evolution, what are the constraints that still exist? In this qualitative study, we opted for bibliographic and documentary research. The findings confirm the predominance of strategic value intertwined with the reductionism of knowledge in the context of research and publication and, the non-consensual process of the internationalization of higher education, being engendered by a global elite (chiefly of American origin) geared to serve their own interests.
