The tidal wave of new and digital technologies has not spared the field of scientific research. As a result of the economy’s shift towards the development of services and the spread of the production of data, two simultaneously opposing and complementary phenomena arise from the manufacture of knowledge by scientific researchers: the Open Science movement and the need to valorize the results of scientific research.
This book responds to these changes and their consequences, utilizing new models of knowledge production, sharing, valorization and development, as well as models of association and retribution of Open Science actors. The models are based on innovative rules of traceability of individual and collective intellectual property, and the construction of meaning, storage and dissemination of data.
The digital sector, which drives and is driven by innovation and progress, is also a source of new social, legal and economic stakes. The authors of this book present, analyze and grasp these different stakes that researchers must face to maintain the standing of their research in the digital era.
