Recently the bloggers at smaller questions took on the topic of open science. If you are not already familiar with the idea of open science, I highly recommend their post.
I continue to be in awe of the momentum within the STEM fields toward disruption of the long-standing paradigm for conducting research as well as publishing research. It may be due to my frame of reference as a doctoral student, but it seems there is not as much momentum or dialogue around open science or open access within social sciences.
What are your thoughts on the topic? What do you think about the level of engagement among social scientists in the conversation about open science and open access?
