npub1psdfxfpxz2cwmmnsk60y3nqpn2tqh9n24h4hstvfkwvr6eaek9js499sr7 (npub1psd…9sr7) I think there are two opposing problems. In the "respectable" academic world, too much focus on publishing a few articles the most exclusive journals ("Top 5" in economics, similarly small group in philosophy). In low-status institutions, push to publish anywhere, producing "predatory" journals (actually, it's more symbiosis than predation, most of the time, though I've occasionally been preyed upon).
