Parliament restored SSH, but in a “tenure track” position

A) ORCID can play a key role for SSH researchers in making visible their scientific, political and social impact
A1) SSH scholars demand to take into account book production because many of them publish in books more than in peer reviewed journals, and many of the most important publications in their fields are books, not articles.
ORCID can play a key role for SSH researchers making visible their scientific impact by including in “Link Works” a direct link to at least one book database
A2) ORCID can play a key role for SSH researchers making visible their scientific impact by including in “Link Works” a direct link to at least one of the databases which are specific for the Humanities and/or Social Sciences.
A3) SSH academics from History, Literature and other fields claim that some of their research is relevant at the national or regional level, published in languages other than English.
ORCID can play a key role for SSH researchers making visible their scientific impact by including in “Link Works” by recognizing these databases in a way that when they add their work manually there is something “more systematic” associated to their work (for example being able to choose from a long list of databases or the way that our technical developers might suggest).

1. The groups within the European Commission responsible for drawing up Work Programmes should be made explicitly aware of the need to include SSH research and perspectives in the initial stages, and
should therefore include colleagues with a
relevant SSH background. Only by taking an inter-disciplinary approach within the Commission from the outset will the strategy be properly delivered. (p. 2)
B1) ORCID can make visible wordwide the rankings of social impact of studies and researchers.
Open access platforms play a key role in the connection between SSH researchers and those from other disciplines, as well as in connecting science and society.

One of the dimensions of transference is Political Impact, that is when policies are based on our research results.

Problem with transference: many policy makers and citizens argue that sometimes when they use the evidences provided by researchers, they get worse social results.
We have social impact when transference serves to achieve better social results.
