Opening peer review to public scrutiny will not make the process any less political--quite the contrary. There must be some way to combat the unethical behavior that does exist in academia, but that isn't it.
- eloff 5y agoI think shining light on unethical behavior does reduce its incidence. Do you have some support for why you think the contrary?
- SantalBlush 5y agoPlease don't post opinions without supporting evidence and then ask for supporting evidence when someone disagrees with you. This just shows that you're applying skepticism selectively.
- eloff 5y agoI don't have supporting evidence, and I'm not about to look it up right now. I think you're in the same boat or you wouldn't have replied like that. I don't think it's controversial though, isn't it commonly believed that increased transparency means less corruption? It might not be true, but if it's the prevailing belief then the burden of proof is in fact on you.
