Do some people prefer authoritarian regimes, or do they just underestimate their social and economic costs? Our field specialist discusses evaluations of the research paper by Acemoglu et al (2025).

At The Unjournal, we compensate experts for evaluating and rating research with impact potential. We committed to pay $450 per evaluation on average - including base pay, incentives, and prizes.
Today, we’re recognizing and rewarding evaluations we found particularly insightful and useful.

The Unjournal provided funding and support to  the “Data Management and Sharing, and Open Evaluations Workshop” at the University of Cape Coast, Ghana, a workshop sponsored by the  Berkeley Initiative for Transparency in the Social Sciences (BITSS) on August 21.

The Unjournal is trialing two projects and looking for collaborators for both of them - Pivotal Questions and Independent Evaluations

Join The Unjournal Evaluator pool - we are looking for researchers, academics, PhD students, and professors with an interest in open science and evaluations.
