深耕重點國際策略合作
【美國伊利諾大學香檳分校與臺大舉辦跨領域國際合作論壇】
美國伊利諾大學香檳分校(University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign,簡稱 Illinois)自2013年與臺大共同規畫重點姊妹校國際合作,今年9月21日至22日在該校貝克曼高等科技研究所 (Beckman Institute for Advanced Science and Technology) 與臺大共同舉辦第二屆「Illinois-NTU Global Issues Forum: Health in Smart Urban Environments」。本校張慶瑞代理校長率臺大共41位代表,受邀前往美國伊利諾州進行重點國際策略合作。伊利諾大學香檳分校 Robert Jones校長、Reitumetse Mabokela 國際長,以都市健康為大主題,與該校共同主持本論壇6個跨領域子題的教授與研究人員,結合兩校研究能量及外部資源,提供主題內及跨子題學術討論,達到跨領域資源整合發展,打造國際學術新亮點。值得一提的是,伊諾大學系統 Robert Easter 榮譽總校長全程與會,同時也加入子題分組討論,不僅提供研究領域專業洞見,也展現兩校密切合作情誼。
此次兩校國際策略聯盟論壇大主題為「Health in Smart Urban Environments」,下分6個跨領域子題:Air and Water Quality、Healthy Aging in Urban Environments、Built Environment and Health、Urban Agriculture and Food Security、Bio-Medical & Cancer Research、Mobility & Autonomous / Connected Vehicles。每個子題的兩校團隊於一年前即積極討論,確立論壇進行模式及報告順序,因此進行子題分組時,兩校與會合作方可有效率商議未來合作方針、計畫及行動方案。
本次論壇亦在6個分組子題外,規劃3場跨子題議題討論,三項跨子題議題分別為:「Innovation & Social Entrepreneurship: Leveraging “Blue Sky” Thinking for Sustainability」、「Informatics & Digital Analytics: Putting Data to Work for Healthy, Livable Cities」及「Social Equity & Access: Leveraging Diverse Urban Populations for Enhanced Health, Prosperity, & Quality of Life」,跨子題議題的討論以小組座談方式進行,讓6個分組子題與會者能就大主題橫向對話,最終由主持人做媒合及總結,透過多領域跨子題對話,穿插不同看法,腦力激盪出跨議題式研究亮點。
本校與Illinois之交流歷史可溯自本校錢思亮校長,錢校長即為伊利諾大學香檳分校的校友,且本校有超過80位專兼任教師於該校取得學位,故兩校的連結與淵源頗深。在幾經討論後,為強化兩校的交流合作,讓更多教師能參與,成為雙方合作的核心議題,本校國際處與對方國際處決定共同舉辦國際跨領域策略聯盟論壇,作為雙方教師合作的平台,並拓展能解決社會問題的研究合作。張代理校長提到,伊利諾大學香檳分校校長Robert Jones同意兩校共設研究基金,且將本校視為top level的合作夥伴,有助延伸未來高教深耕及國際聯盟的觸角與落實。
未來希盼集結校內外各領域教師,成立跨國跨校跨領域研究群,提供上述聚焦於解決都市問題且發展成熟之交流團隊工作空間,將學術研究經費作妥善運用,不僅強化學生學用合一,培養未來社會各領域之整合人才,以期產出更多可實際應用於社會之研究成果,作為使社會永續發展的動力。

The very fact it's called "Third World" says a lot, and then they publish an article on the "benefit" of colonialism using selective data. I guess that didn't take long...You can't make this stuff up. Occidental hegemony corrected?
19 September 2017
LETTER OF RESIGNATION FROM MEMBERS OF THE EDITORIAL BOARD OF THIRD WORLD QUARTERLY
Dear Shahid Qadir, Taylor & Francis, Colleagues and Interested Public,
We are deeply disappointed by the unacceptable process around the publication of Bruce Gilley’s Viewpoint essay, “The case for colonialism,” which was published in Third World Quarterly without any consultation with the Editorial Board. As International Editorial Board Members, we were told in an email on 15 September from Shahid Qadir that this piece was put through the required double-blind peer review process. We asked for these reviews to be sent to the Editorial Board, and they were not.
We have now been informed by our colleagues who reviewed the piece for a Special Issue that they rejected it as unfit to send to additional peer review, and they stated in an email to us:
“We would question the editorial process that has led to the publication of the piece. It was initially offered to guest editors Dr John Narayan and Dr Leon Sealey-Huggins as an article to consider for inclusion in the aforementioned special issue. The guest editors relayed their unease with the article and rejected considering the piece for peer review. It has subsequently come to light that the article was later reviewed as a standard article and rejected by at least one reviewer and then repackaged as an opinion piece.”—email from Dr John Narayan (Birmingham City University)
Dr Leon Sealey-Huggins (Warwick University)
Dr Kehinde Andrews (Birmingham City University)
Dr Eugene Nulman (Birmingham City University)
Dr Goldie Osuri (University of Warwick)
Dr Lucia Pradella (King’s College London)
Professor Vijay Prashad (Trinity College)
Dr Sahar Rad (SOAS, University of London)
Professor Satnam Virdee (University of Glasgow)
Dr Helen Yaffe (London School of Economics)
We have also been informed through correspondence between Prof Ilan Kapoor and our colleague who was the peer-reviewer, after the piece was rejected by the Special Issue editors, that her review also rejected the Viewpoint. Thus, the fact is established that this did not pass the peer-review when we have documentation that it was rejected by three peer reviewers.
As the Viewpoint did not pass the double-blind peer review as claimed by the editor in the statement he issued in the name of the journal, it must be retracted and a new statement issued.
The Viewpoint fails criterion #1 of the Committee on Publication Ethics COPE guidelines that state: “Journal editors should consider retracting a publication if: they have clear evidence that the findings are unreliable, either as a result of misconduct (e.g. data fabrication) or honest error (e.g. miscalculation or experimental error).” https://publicationethics.org/…/Retractions_COPE_gline_fina…
These COPE guidelines are Taylor & Francis’s reference documents for ethics of retracting a publication the editorial board was told in an email on 18 September by Shahid Qadir.
Thus, Bruce Gilley’s Viewpoint essay, “The case for colonialism” must be retracted, as it fails to provide reliable findings, as demonstrated by its failure in the double-blind peer review process.
We all subscribe to the principle of freedom of speech and the value of provocation in order to generate critical debate. However, this cannot be done by means of a piece that fails to meet academic standards of rigour and balance by ignoring all manner of violence, exploitation and harm perpetrated in the name of colonialism (and imperialism) and that causes offence and hurt and thereby clearly violates that very principle of free speech.
The Editor of TWQ has issued a public statement without any consultation with the Editorial Board that is not truthful about the process of this peer-review, and thus, as we fully disagree with both the academic content of the Viewpoint and the response issued in the name of the journal, we are forced to resign immediately from the Editorial Board of Third World Quarterly.
As scholars, we remain ever-committed to the ideals that this journal has stood for over the past 40 years, and we would consider serving on an Editorial Board under different editorial arrangements.
Sincerely,
Ilan Kapoor (York University, Canada)
