Contribuição das dimensões dialógica e ética da mediação da informação para a revisão por pares aberta

Abstract

This study proposes to present theoretical and conceptual reflections about the contributions of the dialogic and ethical dimensions of information mediation to open peer review. The dimensions adopted in this research are part of the mediation process developed by Gomes, and its use is justified by the fact that the dimensions presented can be materialized from different perspectives in informational environments, including in the spaces of dissemination of the production of the knowledge, such as scientific journals, and, consequently, in the scope of open review, an evaluation modality that aims, from different characteristics, to provide more transparency, ethics and collaboration for the flow of manuscript appreciation, and to consolidate itself as one of the facets addressed by open science. Of an exploratory nature, with a qualitative approach and based on bibliographic research, theoretical and conceptual approximations were found between the mediation of information and its dimensions with open peer review. It is believed that such reflections provided from the understanding of the dimensions, especially the dialogic and ethical ones, can contribute to expand the understanding about the mediation of information in the editorial environment, its approximations with open science, and in particular, with open review.
