Abstract
In a traditional account of the scientific community, full-time academics employed in
European universities who do not conduct research, should not be regarded as part
of the scientific community. No publications means no research. And no research
does not fit the profile of the European university sector. Or does it? There are a few
hundred thousand non-publishers across European universities. Is non-publishing
increasingly becoming compatible with academic work in current massified
universities?
The data reported here are drawn from eleven European countries involved in
the “Changing Academic Profession” (CAP) and “Academic Profession in Europe”
(EUROAC) surveys: Austria, Finland, Germany, Ireland, Italy, the Netherlands,
Norway, Poland, Portugal, Switzerland, and the United Kingdom. We only analyzed
the subsample (N = 8,886) of full-time academics working at universities and
involved in research.
