Abstract

The relevance of considering editorial management of scientific journals by academic staff as a "knowledgement transfer" is analyzed in the context of the Spanish six-years accreditation process. This is done from two perspectives: justice and necessity. In the first part it is discussed whether scientific publishing should be considered a knowledge transfer merit, while the second part reflects on the need for recognition from the sector. It is concluded that the management of scientific journals is a transfer merit that satisfies all the requirements to be considered as such in the current call.
