Hi! I would put my hands in the fire (don't know if in English this expression = exist - meaning I strongly beat) that the academic publication system works= though corruption and traffic of influences between the private academic j= ournals and academic authorities, as it is now being public in regards to t= he SGAE (now with a big scandal in Spain) and similar societies of authors = and editors for the cultural sector.
Do someone knows about cases of denouncing academic corruption in courts? I= ask this because I think we need to go beyond promoting open access and ex= plaining how absurd it is, and start denounce the current system. Cheers!
