Why should books drive the academic hierarchy? This controversial question posed by Lindsay Waters ignited fierce debate in the academy and its presses, as he warned that the "publish or perish" dictum was breaking down the academic system in the United States. Waters hones his argument in this pamphlet with a new set of questions that challenge the previously unassailable link between publishing and tenure.
As one of the most important and innovative editors in the humanities and social sciences, Waters has long witnessed the self-destruction occurring in the academic world because of the pressure to publish. Drawing upon his years of experience, he reveals how this principle is destroying the quality of educational institutions and the ideals of higher learning. It is time for scholars to rise up, Waters argues, and reclaim the governance of their institutions.

Enemies of Promise
O livro é excelente para se entender alguns dos problemas enfrentados pelos docentes/pesquisadores em um meio acadêmico pressionado pelo ato de publicar a todo custo. Algumas consequências são explicitamente mostradas de forma bastante inteligente e com uma argumentação sólida. Por outro lado, tive a impressão que algumas poucas crÃticas ao novo sistema é feita de forma pessoal (contra as ideias de um filósofo em particular), deixando com que as emoções superem a razão tão bem trabalhada na maior parte do livro.
Acredito que o livro pode ser lido por pessoas de dentro e de fora do meio acadêmico para, respectivamente, servir como uma fonte de conhecimento desse novo sistema baseado na publicação a todo custo e como um material de reflexão.
Leitura rápida e muito informativa.
