This is a critical reflexive question for all ResearchGate members. The site not only serves the need for openness, interaction and communication between scientists and researchers all over the world; it also offers a new ecology to build, reshape and evaluate their (self-)identity and reputation - that is, their scientific capital (in Bourdieusian terms). In addition, the bottom-up nature of the digital platform arguably contributes to the complexity and self-organisation of the scientific field, thus defending its relative autonomy and collective intelligence. What do you think?

Since 2008, ResearchGate is a social networking site for an increasing number of scientists and researchers. That means it's policy is accepted.
