Abstract

In this globalized era, so rich in the flow of information, one is confronted daily with rankings based on bibliometric indicators, which measure each investigator´s scientific production. Equally one sees a reckless race for publication and the points that ensue, specifically when one is published in a top-ranking magazine – necessarily in English. The victory to be obtained by publishing in these magazines seems to represent a luxury to which few have access. This article presents a reflection on the dynamics which define and control the contexts of publication and the definitions of the knowledge, whose publication in Portuguese tends to be relegated to a secondary or marginal plane.
