Seven Deadly Sins: Culture’s Effect on Scholarly Editing and Publishing
Journal of Language and Education ( IF 1.0 ) Pub Date : 2020-09-30 , DOI: 10.17323/jle.2020.11205

The opinion piece aims to draw readers’ attention to the effects cultures other than Englishrelated ones exert on the processes of scholarly editing and publishing. Non-Anglophone writers with little academic English skills or a weak command of English tend to face deskrejections or very difficult and time-consuming rounds of edits and revisions. Second-language researchers often are biased toward national schools of thought with the most prominent international research ignored. Such authors are unaware of the recent developments in their field on a global scale and are sometimes prone to misunderstanding scientific and academic genres in the internationally accepted mode. Non-Anglophone writers are also inclined toward native-language patterns of thought and, consequently, rhetorical schemas different from English. Such second-language researchers may have their specific understanding of ethics and criticism, responding to the latter in an unexpectedly harsh way. This combination of factors can lead to unoriginal, vague, unimportant, and unacceptable submissions to international journals, resulting in failures to disseminate their research globally. The authors share their approaches to curbing unpleasant and inefficient experiences for second-language contributors, editors, and reviewers.

七大罪:文化对学术编辑和出版的影响

该意见书旨在吸引读者注意与英语无关的文化在学术编辑和出版过程中的作用。非英语专业人士,学术英语水平不高,或者英语水平较弱,他们往往会面临拒绝桌面或进行非常困难且耗时的编辑和修订。第二语言的研究人员通常偏向于国家思想流派,而最杰出的国际研究却被忽略了。这些作者没有意识到其领域在全球范围内的最新发展,有时倾向于以国际公认的方式误解科学和学术类型。非英语作家也倾向于母语的思维模式,因此倾向于与英语不同的修辞模式。这样的第二语言研究人员可能对道德和批评有特定的了解,以出乎意料的苛刻方式对后者进行回应。这些因素的组合可能导致向国际期刊提交的原始,模糊,不重要和不可接受的论文,导致无法在全球范围内传播其研究成果。作者分享了他们的方法,以抑制第二语言的撰稿人,编辑和审稿人的不愉快和低效率的经历。
