Open Science refers to a broad, transdisciplinary movement aiming to open up research processes to promote the integrity, reproducibility and value of scholarly work, in part as a response to pressing problems facing science. This movement thoroughly changed the field of psychology, and clearly a similar fundamental rearrangement is coming in all social sciences, for example political science, sociology, and communication.
With Nate Breznau and Eike Rinke, I have the pleasure of organizing a meta-scientific conference, which discusses, advances and pushes for Open Science in research on politics and society.
