It is astounding to me that this happened. A complete failure of peer review, of the editors, and OF COURSE of the authors. Just absolutely bonkers that this made it to publication. Completely clown shoes.
It keeps happening across all fields. I think we are about to witness a complete overhaul of the publishing model.
I've been saying it to everyone who'll listen ...
the journals should be run by universities as non-profits with close ties to the local research community (ie, editors from local faculty and as much of the staff from the student/PhD/Postdoc body as possible). It's really an obvious idea. In legal research, there's a long tradition of having students run journals (Barrack Obama, if you recall, was editor of the Harvard Law Journal ... that was as a student). I personally did it too ... it's a great experience for a student to see how the sausage is made.
My field's too small to have separate journals for each university, but we do have one in the Free Journal Network that's run by the community
You don’t need one in each University, that wouldn’t scale. There’s be natural specialisations. And journals could even move from University to university as academic personnel change over time.
The main point is that they’re non-profit and run by researchers for researchers.
