It seems that there is, more or less, some sort of consensus on academic standards. Who is responsible for drawing the guidelines that shape the way academia functions? Who do you think puts the standards for research publishing in influential journals?
Recommendations by ordinary researchers? Decisions by elite researchers? Do policy makers have a say in this? What connects these academic decision makers, whether individuals or institutions, and governs them?
I would appreciate your views. Thanks!
And how comes that the adminstrations of hundreds of academic institutions follow similar practices?
Who is on top of the pyramid?
Remi, thanks. I wonder what is the organization that connects these elite academics. There must be like hundreds of these elite academics around the world.
