Abstract: Through the concepts of colonialities, geopolitics and body-politics of knowledge, we reflect on some challenges of Latin American scientific publication in open access. Although Latin America is a pioneer in open access initiatives and in the creation of cooperative regional systems to share knowledge as a common good, âinternationalâ journal, endorsed by impact factor, continue to be prioritized in the evaluation and financing systems of the science from most countries in the region. Additionally, open access commodification strategies are becoming ever more pervasive and threaten to subvert some of the initial purposes of the Open Access Movement and create deeper gaps between North and South. Behind these aspects is the naturalization and perpetuation of ontological and epistemic hierarchies and exclusions with undertones of systemic racism that decolonial authors characterize as colonialities. An epistemic disobedience is required, as a decolonial attitude, and a concerted effort at the regional level that transforms evaluation systems, preserves the public and academic nature of science and guarantees equity and social justice

hasAbstract | A través de los conceptos de colonialidades, geopolítica y corpo-politica del conocimiento se reflexiona sobre algunos desafíos de la publicación científica latinoamericana en acceso abierto. Aunque América Latina es pionera en iniciativas de acceso abierto y en la creación de sistemas regionales cooperativos para compartir conocimiento como bien común, las revistas “internacionales”, refrendadas por factor de impacto, continúan a ser priorizadas en los sistemas de evaluación y financiamiento de la ciencia de la mayoría de los países de la región. Adicionalmente, estrategias de mercantilización del acceso abierto se hacen cada vez más penetrantes y amenazan con subvertir algunos de los propósitos iniciales del Movimiento de acceso abierto y crear brechas más profundas entre el Norte y el Sur. Por detrás de estos aspectos se sitúa la naturalización y perpetuación de jerarquías y exclusiones ontológicas y epistémicas con trasfondos de racismo sistémico que autores decoloniales caracterizan como colonialidades. Se requiere una desobediencia epistémica, como actitud decolonial, y una concertación de esfuerzos a nivel regional que transforme sistemas de evaluación, preserve el carácter público y académico de la ciencia y garantice equidad y justicia social (es-ES) 3 |
