Abstract

We present Vol. 25, No. 1 (2026) of Revista de Comunicación in a challenging and demanding context, upholding the defense of scientific publications.

The legitimacy of the academic journal as such is being questioned, with the issue unfortunately remaining high on the agenda. In December 2025, Professor Russell Beale, from the School of Computer Science, University of Birmingham,  published the essay “In Memoriam: The Academic Journal”, criticizing the scientific publication system.

We have taken this provocative idea as a wake-up call to pay attention to developments in the area and the risks they entail. Below follow some ideas the author proposed to reflect on the transcendent meaning of science and the value of quality scientific journals.
