It is worth noting that "Glacier Frozen Soil" is not only one of the top 100 journals in China and the core journal of science and technology in China, but also has a certain international reputation. As a result, doubts poured in: Can such articles also be published in Chinese core academic journals? Is it academic corruption for periodical editors to include such articles?
On the afternoon of June 5438+1October 65438+February, 2020, the editorial department of Glacier and Frozen Soil magazine officially responded, admitting that the review was not strict before publication, and would withdraw the manuscript and solemnly apologize. As the author's tutor, academician of Chinese Academy of Sciences and editor-in-chief of Glacier and Frozen Soil magazine, Cheng resigned in accordance with international practice. At the same time, the Chinese Academy of Sciences suspended the position of full-time deputy editor of the journal on the same day and started the rectification of the editorial board and editorial department of the journal.
Coincidentally, some scholars have found that Wang, former Party secretary of the Institute of Finance of China Academy of Social Sciences, has been running Banker magazine for a long time? Father-son condom? Column, publishing his own calligraphy and articles by his son Wang Qingshi. According to the statistics of the official WeChat account Bi Dao on WeChat, there have been more than 90 articles so far.
According to the inquired information, Wang Qingshi was only 10 years old when he first published his essays and poems in The Banker in 2006. It's valuable to show yourself at an early age, but it's hard not to doubt that his father is the editor-in-chief of the magazine? Private use of public equipment? .
In view of the fact that the editor Wang didn't think there was anything wrong with his past behavior, he didn't withdraw his manuscript and resign. Since then, the secretary of the Disciplinary Committee of Shanxi Academy of Social Sciences, the competent unit of Banker magazine, subsequently responded that the Banker magazine will be comprehensively rectified and the editor-in-chief Wang will be dealt with accordingly, and the results will be announced as soon as possible.
Scandals in recent years have proved that academia is not a pure ivory tower. Due to the current situation, some people who are not confident even think that China is the largest country in academic misconduct. For example, the author of Baidu Encyclopedia's academic misconduct entry thinks that academic misconduct is very common, but can China call it? Academic corruption? Not much.
