You may be surprised to know that these predatory journals have become the shortest route to professorship in some Nigerian Universities. The quest for visibility in google scholar, a criteria for promotion in Universities like UNIZIK has not helped matters. A worrying trend. Can someone in this list serve take the trouble to compile a list of reputable journals in the Social Sciences and Humanities, so we can share with our colleagues in the faculties.

Why is this predatory journal being inadvertently advertised on this list? We should have a spam filter to keep things like this out. It's bad enough that our personal emails are bombarded by these pay-to-publish scam journals. They shouldn't be getting publicity on a listserv with a large membership lest we become unwittingly complicit in their fraud.
