    Contextuality, Bioethics, and the Nature of Philosophy: Reflections on Murdoch, Diamond, Walker, and the Groningen Approach

    Abstract: Beginning with Barry Hoffmaster’s charge that we reclaim bioethics from the moral philosopher’s top-down theorizing, I discuss two moral philosophy contexts that offer resources for the kind of complex attention Hoffmaster demands: Iris Murdoch and Cora Diamond in moral philosophy and Margaret Urban Walker, Hilde Lindeman, and Marian Verkerk’s joint take on bioethics. My aim is: 1) to dispel a simplified notion of philosophy in bioethics; 2) to unite two strands of philosophy, which converge on important issues relevant to contemporary bioethics; and 3) to explore these strands in terms of enabling, maieutic work on our ethical points of departure.

    Strategies to Increase the Number of Open Access Journals: The Cases of Elsevier and Springer Nature
    University of Toronto Press Inc. (UTPress) ; 2022

    Abstract: In recent years, major commercial publishers have strengthened their presence in both the subscription journal market and the open access journal market. Examining 447 journals from Elsevier and 550 from Springer Nature, this study investigates three strategies for enlarging the number of gold open access journals: the launch of new journals, mergers with other publishers, and partnerships with research institutes. The results reveal that these publishers adopted different strategies for expanding their journal portfolios. While Springer Nature relied significantly on merging with established publishers, Elsevier recently launched many new journals independently. Approximately 60 per cent of Springer Nature journals and 45 per cent of Elsevier journals are published on behalf of research institutes. Therefore, collaboration with research institutes has contributed to the increasing number of journal titles. As major publishers expand their open access businesses, it is necessary to monitor their activities from a policy perspective of pro-competition.

    Suffering, Guilt—and Divine Injustice? The Nature and Forms of Evil in Their Bearing on the Problem of Theodicy
    University of Toronto Press Inc. (UTPress) ; 2020
    In:  Toronto Journal of Theology Vol. 36, No. 2 ( 2020-09), p. 194-213
    Details
    In: Toronto Journal of Theology, University of Toronto Press Inc. (UTPress), Vol. 36, No. 2 ( 2020-09), p. 194-213
    Abstract: The so-called problem of evil rests upon the apparent incompatibility of three fundamental hypotheses: God exists; God is inclusively omniscient, omnipotent, and perfectly good; and evil exists. Most apologetic responses to the problem (resulting either in a full-fledged theodicy or a mere defence of God) focus upon the second premise in relation to the third, and the same essentially goes for attempts at proving the insolubility of the problem or at least the actual failure of theodicies and/or defences so far. By contrast, the present article concentrates on the third premise alone and thus aims, first and foremost, at a comprehensive account of (a) the nature and (b) the fundamental types of evil—here with a special emphasis on what ( pace Leibniz) is tentatively dubbed “eschatological evil.” In conclusion, the article expands on the previous analysis by (c) highlighting some of its major—and in fact devastating—implications regarding the possibility of a philosophical theodicy and/or defence. As a corollary, a brief case will be made for a theological—or, more precisely, Christian—view of the problem. I will argue, in particular, that Christians have good reasons to adopt a genuinely agnostic stance toward all purported solutions to the problem of evil, a stance culminating in what has aptly been called “epistemic humility.”

    Smoke, Mirrors, and Impact Factor: How Management Scholars Undermine a Managerial Metric
    University of Toronto Press Inc. (UTPress) ; 2023

    In: Journal of Scholarly Publishing, University of Toronto Press Inc. (UTPress), Vol. 54, No. 1 ( 2023-01-01), p. 30-59
    Abstract: The authors analyze leading management journals of the Academy of Management (the Academy of Management Journal, the Academy of Management Review, the Academy of Management Learning and Education, and the Academy of Management Perspectives, as well as the Journal of Management), collecting and analyzing information on the managerial research assessment tool of impact factor (IF) during two time periods—from 1997 through 2005 and from 2006 through 2019. The authors capture the changing nature of journal strategies, examining the number of references, self-citations, and cross-citations. The study shows a general increase in the number of references used, as well as self-citations and cross-citations, resulting in a corresponding IF gain. The evidence suggests some limitations to adopting performance metrics in academia. Thus, academic managers, editors, and authors who focus on IF may be overestimating its impact, obscuring institutional attempts to measure academic research performance.

    Open Citations as a Tool for Bibliometric Verification and Transparency and for Correcting Erroneous References
    University of Toronto Press Inc. (UTPress) ; 2023

    Abstract: Citations in a scientific paper reference other studies and form the information backbone of that paper. If cited literature is valid and non-retracted, an analysis of citations can offer unique perspectives about the supportive or contradictory nature of a statement. Yet, such analyses are still limited by the relative lack of access to open citation data. The creation of open citation databases (OCDs) allows for data analysts, bibliometric specialists, and other academics interested in such topics to independently verify the validity and accuracy of a citation. Since the strength of an individual’s curriculum vitae can be based on, and assessed by, metrics (citation counts, altmetric mentions, journal ranks, etc.), there is interest in appreciating citation networks and their link to research performance. Open citations would thus not only benefit career, funding, and employment initiatives, but they could also be used to reveal citation rings, abusive author–author or journal–journal citation strategies, or to detect false or erroneous citations. OCDs should be open to the public, and publishers have a moral responsibility of releasing citation data for free use and academic exploration. Some challenges remain, including long-term funding, and data and information security.

    What Can Be Learned about Predatory Journals from a Failed Study? Possible Motivations behind Predatory Journals
    University of Toronto Press Inc. (UTPress) ; 2023

    In: Journal of Scholarly Publishing, University of Toronto Press Inc. (UTPress), Vol. 54, No. 1 ( 2023-01-01), p. 3-14
    Abstract: Predatory journals, with low standards of publication, means flawed or fraudulent research can compromise future research. Often called ‘predatory’ or ‘deceptive’ publishers, both these terms have an implication that the editors and publishers behind them have a motivation to deceive or con authors. However, the motivations remain an assumption because little is known about the individuals behind these journals. This research intended to use qualitative, in-depth interviews to find out more about the individuals behind predatory journals. By engaging with them directly, we hoped to gain an understanding of how they see themselves in the publishing landscape, what value they add and how they achieve these aims. Emails received by the authors were mined for contact information of suspected predatory journals. Over the course of a year, 2552 emails were sent inviting respondents to an interview, for which there would be a small monetary compensation. Despite sending 2552 emails, only three responses were received, and all three did not schedule an interview when prompted. Two of the three requested that a translator be present. A significant percentage of the emails (36.2 per cent) bounced back, indicating the contact information was not valid. While the information gained was limited, it would appear many are aware of the dubious nature of their journal and do not wish further scrutiny by being contacted. Others may lack the English-language skills necessary to be engaged in basic written communication, let alone the more complex language and grammar of scientific publishing.
