8230;this is a characteristic of management science, which bases itself on retrospective coherence. Look at the extraordinary phrase, “retrospective coherence”. Etienne Wenger, the granddaddy of community of practice (CoP) research, studied various successful communities at the tail end of their success and extrapolated backwards from those end products to generalize on what has made them successful.

It allows researchers to search for papers but also to connect with other researchers, invite them to join a group and then share ideas and documents. In an article in the Guardian there is a description of thin new facility, which is growing fast and attracting more and more universities, research groups and libraries.
Via Alessandro Delfanti :
It has been compared to Last.fm, the popular website to share music, or to iTunes, since it is an application you can download

The hacking of emails written by scientists at the Climate Research Unit has produced lots of comment and copy about the efficacy of climate science and seems to have done damage to the reputations of the scientists and sciences involved. However the response to this incident – an opening up and peering of science that should be the response to this incident, will benefit us all.
Time for P2P Science?
I’ve always felt that science is in essence, quite a democratic idea – this may seem the opposite of how some perceive scientists to be; cold,

How do we get the general public to pressure governments to open up research results so that other people can more easily build on it?
Fernhout’ s text is a reaction to a proposal for a research funding proposal for green research around the concept of dual licensing, to which we may return.
