Defining Transparency: A Functional Approach.

Cruz Romero, R. (2023).
Defining Transparency: A Functional Approach. JeDEM - EJournal of EDemocracy and Open Government, 15(1), 219-242. https://doi.org/10.29379/jedem.v15i1.714
Abstract

This reflection piece seeks to tackle this blurriness and advance the concept’s analytical precision by presenting and discussing transparency’s main dimensions, as well as its framing within the scholarly body of good governance, democracy, and development. To do so, the reflection paper presents a novel approach; to define transparency in the form of a function (which places transparency in relation to, and as a function) of its two constituting dimensions: a) information (timely and qualitative), and b) accountability mechanisms (namely, a free media environment and legitimate accountability channels).

The Field-Specificity of Open Data Practices.

Abstract

Increasingly, researchers are expected to make their research data openly available. However, scientific fields differ in their research practices and norms for sharing research data. We provide quantitative evidence of differences in data practices and the public sharing of research data at a granularity of field-specificity that is rarely reported in open data surveys. Based on a survey of 8,822 researchers at German Universities, we find considerable variation, within and across disciplines, of data practices and rates of open data sharing. Our findings underline that in order to evaluate rates of public data sharing, a better understanding of the embedding of public data sharing into field-specific research practices is needed.

Forty and over the academic hill? Biological and academic age and the race for tenure.

Ordemann, J., & Naegele, L. (2023).
Forty and over the academic hill? Biological and academic age and the race for tenure. Online first: SocArXiv.
Abstract

This paper investigates the relationship between age and attaining a tenured position in academia (postdoctoral researcher or professorship at a university of applied sciences or university). Following considerations about ageism towards doctoral graduates who were 40 years and older (40+) upon attaining a PhD and Robert K. Merton’s idea of cumulative advantages in academic careers (Matthew-Effect), we differentiate between biological and academic age. We test the relationships and the resources accumulated behind the latter using data from the DZHW PhD Panel 2014. Applying piecewise constant exponential estimations and an entropy balancing, we find that PhDs aged 40+ experience a significantly positive effect on attaining a professorship.

OpenRewi – Initiative für eine offene Rechtswissenschaft.

Eisentraut, N., & Ebert, S. (2023).
OpenRewi – Initiative für eine offene Rechtswissenschaft. Recht und Zugang (RuZ), 2023(2), 141-148. https://doi.org/10.5771/2699-1284-2023-2-141
Abstract

The article presents the initiative for open jurisprudence “OpenRewi”. The original goal of the initiative is to create a supporting infrastructure and platform for legal scholars who want to publish textbooks and other teaching materials, as well as anthologies, monographs and commentaries openly, i.e. open access. So far, no infrastructure or platform has been established for Open Access book publications that adequately reflects the specific needs of legal publishing. OpenRewi takes up exactly this need and at the same time be an impetus for a reform of legal publication culture.

Tertiary Education, Changing One’s Educational Decision and the Role of Parental Preferences.

Abstract

Unequal access to university and the decision processes that give rise to it are important factors in the accumulation of educational inequalities. In this paper, we investigate a specific aspect of such decision processes by focusing on those students who change their original plans to start a (nontertiary) vocational education and decide to pursue a tertiary degree instead. In doing so, we find that more than one-fifth of the students in our sample who originally planned to pursue a vocational education change their original decision in this way.
