The Unjournal

We are not a journal! The Unjournal will not 'publish any papers in a journal'; we will organize and fund public journal-independent feedback, rating, and evaluation of hosted papers and dynamically presented research projects.

These evaluations and ratings are hosted here on PubPub (see below and navigation bars), along with manager summaries, author responses, and links to the research being evaluated. Each evaluation and response is given a DOI and chould also be visible in a range of bibliometrics and academic search engines (such as Google Scholar).

Our initial focus: quantitative work that informs global priorities, especially in economics, policy, and social science. We will encourage better research by making it easier for researchers to get feedback and credible ratings on their work.

The Unjournal does not charge any fees. In fact, we compensate evaluators for their time, and award prizes for strong work.

See our discussion and project space at Unjournal.org for more details.
