Seminar: Editing and editors: careers, choices and control in the production of academic knowledge

05/17/2018 09:30 am 05/17/2018 12:00 pm Australia/Melbourne Seminar: Editing and editors: careers, choices and control in the production of academic knowledge

Our panel of three editors in chief from journals significant to management researchers will demystify and critique journal editorial processes.

They will discuss topics such as:

  • Why do editors take on editorial roles and what does editing entail?
  • Is there an editorial career path?
  • To what extent is editing work recognised in the university?
  • By what principles should editors undertake their roles?
  • Should editors be blinded or at least declare conflicts of interest?
  • What is the role and influence of editors beyond handling papers submitted to their journal?
  • Who do editors serve and to whom are they accountable? To what extent do editors control the journal; who "owns" journals and who profits from them?

All scholars including early career researchers and graduate research students are encouraged to attend.

Morning tea will be served at 9.30am and the seminar will begin at 10am.
