Towards a Publication Culture in Transdisciplinary Research

Kueffer, C, Hirsch Hadorn, G, Bammer, G, Van Kerkhoff, L, Pohl, C

Over the past few decades, many researchers have concluded that adequately addressing issues in the knowledge society requires a major transformation of research, away from disengaged disciplines toward socially engaged, transdisciplinary approaches. To date, knowledge exchange between transdisciplinarity researchers via academic publications has been modest. Developing a common strategy about which journals are appropriate for publishing different insights from transdisciplinary research is a task for scholars and journal editors to undertake jointly. Publishing transdisciplinary research requires both an extension and a transformation of classical scientific publishing.
