Doing the right thing to get diamonds? Professional challenges and moral dilemmas.

Research output: Contribution to journalComment/debate

Abstract

Andringa et al. (2024) offer us very persuasive, clearly articulated arguments about how to address what is, surely, one of the most pressing issues for anyone who cares about sharing knowledge or about justice, equity, diversity, and inclusion (JEDI). The source of the challenge that faces us lies long ago in our publishing culture, and as such, it runs very deep. Navigating these waters is going to take courage and collaborative effort so that individuals are not vulnerable. Andringa et al. (2024) make a powerful rallying call for us to unify.
The authors shine a sobering light on the topic, though some of the issues and recommendations remain far from straightforward. Here, I provide personal and professional reactions, which reinforce many of the authors’ points but also problematise them with a view to informing concrete steps towards diamond open access.
