Scientific research is communicated, organized, financed, governed, and evaluated through the process of publication. The result of this process is a highly competitive academic environment that rewards researchers for high volume publication, preferably in high-impact journals, leading to the popularised expression 'publish or perish'. Universities and other scientific institutions are under similar pressure, with their aggregated research output being under constant scrutiny. This innovative text provides a detailed introduction to the origin and development of the scholarly metrics used to measure academic productivity, and the effect they have upon the quality and diversity of scientific research. With its careful attention to both the positive and negative outcomes of research evaluation and their distinct expressions around the globe, The Evaluation Game guides the way to a more grounded understanding of metrics, and the diverse academic cultures they give rise to.

This Handbook provides a comprehensive overview of current developments, issues and good practices regarding assessment in social science research. It pays particular attention to the challenges in evaluation policies in the social sciences, as well as to the specificities of publishing in the area. The Handbook discusses the current societal challenges facing researchers, from digital societies, to climate change and sustainability, to trust in democratic societies. Chapters provide ways to strengthen research assessment in the social sciences for the better, by offering a diverse range of experiences and views of experts from all continents. The Handbook also outlines major data sources that can be used to assess social sciences research, as well as looking at key dimensions of research quality in the social sciences including journal peer review, the issue of identifying research quality, and gender disparities in social science research.This book will be an essential read for scholars interested in research assessment in the social sciences. It will also be useful to policy makers looking to understand the key position of the social sciences in science and society and provide appropriate frameworks for key societal challenges

For more than twenty years, the international research community has affirmed its support for open and collaborative practices that improve the quality, transparency, reproducibility and inclusiveness of science. In France, this orientation has been reflected in the adoption of two National Plans for Open Science, in 2018 and 2021. In this context and on the occasion of the French Presidency of the Council of the European Union, France organised the Open Science European Conference (OSEC) on 4 and 5 February 2022. This conference on the transformation of the research and innovation ecosystem in Europe was an opportunity to address in particular transparency in health research, the future of scientific publishing and the opening of codes and software produced in a scientific context, but also the necessary transformations of research assessment, summarised in the Paris Call presented during the event and calling for the creation of a coalition of actors committed to reforming the current system. This international event was organised was organised by the French Académie des sciences, the Ministry of Higher Education and Research, the French National Center for Scientific Research (CNRS), the National Institute of Health and Medical Research (Inserm), the High Council for Evaluation of Research and Higher Education (Hcéres), the National Research Agency (ANR), the University of Lorraine and the University of Nantes.

Depuis plus de vingt ans, la communauté scientifique internationale affirme son soutien à la science ouverte comme fondement d’une recherche plus collaborative, transparente, intègre et proche de la société. Cette orientation s’est notamment traduite en France par l’adoption de deux Plans nationaux pour la science ouverte, en 2018 et 2021. Dans cette dynamique et à l’occasion de la présidence française du Conseil de l’Union européenne, la France a organisé les 4 et 5 février 2022 les Journées européennes de la science ouverte (OSEC). Cette conférence sur la transformation de l’écosystème de la recherche et de l’innovation en Europe a été l’occasion d’aborder en particulier la transparence des recherches en santé, l’avenir de l’édition scientifique et l’ouverture des codes et logiciels produits dans un contexte de recherche, mais aussi les transformations nécessaires de l’évaluation de la recherche, synthétisées dans l’Appel de Paris présenté lors de ces Journées et appelant à la création d’une coalition d’acteurs engagés pour une réforme du système actuel. Cet événement international a été organisé avec le soutien de l’Académie des sciences, du ministère de l’Enseignement supérieur et de la Recherche, du Centre national de la recherche scientifique (CNRS), de l’Institut national de la santé et de la recherche médicale (INSERM), du Haut Conseil de l’évaluation de la recherche et de l’enseignement supérieur (Hcéres), de l’Agence nationale de la recherche (ANR), de l’Université de Lorraine et de l’Université de Nantes.
