Why this matters here
The 2012 San Francisco Declaration on Research Assessment (DORA) urges institutions to stop misusing journal-level metrics such as impact factor for hiring, promotion, and funding of individual researchers. When Incentives Become the Moral Language cites that reform statement alongside the persistence of portable journal rankings that still offer committees defensible cross-candidate comparisons. DORA states assessment principles; the book asks how incentive language outruns signed commitments when the shelf still looks more objective than judgment.
