CFP: Communications in Science

Dear Colleagues,

We call for abstracts for potential papers to be included in a Special Issue Communications in Science for The Digital Scholar: Philosopher‘s Lab, a peer-reviewed scholarly journal. 

The issue is seen as a sharing zone focused on discussions related to interactions between scientists and scientific communities, research areas, traditions and approaches. 

The thematic area embraces a range of aspects related to communications in science – epistemological, historical, social, ethical, etc. Among proposed topics are today’s formats of scientific collaborations including digital researcher’s networking (social networks, online crowdsourcing and open innovation platforms, etc.). 

Another subject suggested for discussion is the concept of trading zone (originally introduced by P. Galison) and its application to communications in science, e.g. in interdisciplinary projects. 

We welcome submissions particularly in (but not limited to) the above themes. 

The publicaton languages are English and Russian. 

✏ Extended abstracts containing 500-700 words + keywords + info on author/s, affiliation/s and e-mail address/es can be send to Svetlana Shibarshina (Deputy Editor) by June 1, 2019. References do not count toward the word limit. 

Submission to: [email protected].
