Tout est permis et possible avec les revues trompeuses ou prédatrices.. Cet exemple est incroyable : le même article (Cultural orientation and customer satisfaction – A study of African airlaines) mais dans deux revues différentes :
- avec un auteur du Kenya (Githaiga N) dans la revue prédatrice ‘Journal of Economic and Business Studies’ ; article reçu 16 novembre et publié le 24 novembre 2019 ; compte tenu du risque de disparition de la revue, j’ai archivé le pdf ;
- avec deux auteurs dont l’affiliation n’est pas précisée (Lukas Maina Njeru & Thomas Kimeli Cheruiyot) dans la revue prédatrice ‘Journal of Strategic Management‘ ; volume 3n numéro 4 de novembre 2019 (pas de date précise d’acceptation) ; compte tenu du risque de disparition de la revue, j’ai archivé le pdf ; N Githaiga m’a donné leur adresse (Moi University, Kenya) en informant que les auteurs des deux articles ont travaillé ensemble ! J’ai plein d’emails bizarres sur ce cas !!!
J’ai bien lu et il y a quelques différences très mineures sur des retours de paragraphes, sur deux lignes oubliées ou ajoutées dans le tableau 2, et les mises en pages des illustrations diffèrent. Qui a plagié qui ? Qui a volé qui ? …. En fait l’un des auteurs ne serait pas l’auteur. Voici la copie de l’email qu’il m’a envoyé en copie le 20 janvier 2020 : » Hello Editor Pubtexto, I raised this matter earlier on. I’m not the author of this paper. I forwarded the paper on behalf of Lucas Njeru as shown in the manuscript. Kindly pull down the paper and exercise due diligence and professionalism. Nderitu Githaiga « . Vous trouverez une partie des email de la rédaction ci-dessous… Je remercie Olivier Furrer pour l’information.
