Práticas de publicação e avaliação em ciências sociais e humanidades: contradições e desafios. P2P e Inovação, [S. l.], v. 4, n. 1, p. 18–34, 2017. DOI: 10.21721/p2p.2017v4n1.p18-34.

Acesso em: 3 abr. 2023.https://repositorio.ufrn.br/handle/123456789/52014This paper discusses aspects about the peculiarities of the epistemic practices of the Social Sciences and Humanities that require differentiated evaluations of their scientific production as a condition to judge, with fairness, their value and place in the context of the Brazilian Science and Technology system. Based on a bibliographical research that is also reflected in the results of national and international empirical studies carried out, it reinforces the discussion that an improvement of the "science of scientific evaluation" is urgently needed in order to correct the deficiencies of the metric indicators in force in as well as taking into account power settings within and between the scientific communities of the country. It emphasizes the importance of understanding the temic practices in the context of academic communities, particularly from the point of view of limiting the uncritical and almost absolute use of indicators.Atribuição-NãoComercial-CompartilhaIgual 3.0 Brasilhttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/3.0/br/Produção CientíficaIndicadores MétricosPráticas de Publicação e AvaliaçãoCiências Sociais e HumanidadesContradições e DesafiosScientific ProductionMetric IndicatorsPublication and Evaluation PracticesSocial Sciences and HumanitiesContradictions and Challengesarticlehttp://dx.doi.org/10.21721/p2p.2017v4n1.p18-34
