Open Science in Political Research: Promises and Challenges

Abstract

Moderator: Anne Rasmussen (King's College London) Speakers: Isabelle Borucki (Philipps-Universität Marburg), for EJPR Marta Lorimer (Cardiff University), for PRX Alessandro Nai (University of Amsterdam), for EJPR Steven M. Van Hauwaert (ESPOL), for PRX Open Science principles have had, in recent years a critical and transformative role in the way we do research in social and behavioural sciences, including in political science. Yet, as fundamental changes often do, things on the Open Science front seem at times to move slowly. But things do move, and exciting initiatives are on the horizon. This roundtable is an opportunity to have an open-heart discussion about the state, promises and, yes, also challenges related to open science in our field – in particular, when it comes to research published in ECPR’s journals.
