¿Ha muerto la revista académica? Un obituario crítico del sistema de publicación científica
Un texto ensayístico firmado por Russell Beale, académico de la University of Birmingham, propone una provocadora idea: la revista académica tradicional ha llegado al final de su vida. En forma de obituario, el autor recorre más de tres siglos de historia editorial —desde el Journal des Sçavans (1665) hasta la era de la inteligencia artificial generativa— para argumentar que el sistema se desvió de sus valores fundacionales y terminó colapsando bajo sus propias lógicas de mercado, métricas y automatización.

Abstract
In this piece we reflect on the life and influence of AJ, the academic journal, charting their history and contributions to science, discussing how their influence changed society and how, in death, they will be mourned for what they once stood for but for which, in the end, they had moved so far from that they will less missed than they might have been.
