Trying to define the research
problematic
• Beginnings
• A particular policy issue – ‘research
selectivity’
• An organising metaphor – ‘semi-peripheral’
Research
selectivity –
Ireland
Selection as the
Struggle for
Visibility
• Global
• Institutional
• Individual
Global University
Rankings
National
Auditing and
Differential/Co
mpetitive
Funding –
Compact/REF
Institutional
Audit Research? A view from the
centre…
Initial Organising Questions
• What does the
experience of research
selectivity look like in
semi-peripheral systems
of European higher
education?
• In what ways are semi-
peripheral systems
governed through
regional and global
systems of surveillance
and measurement?
• How is internal selectivity
arranged at both national
and institutional level
(e.g. how are the
humanities dealt with)?
• How are different
categories of academic
managed in relation to
research selectivity?
Reputational Ghetto* – the
case of the Humanities?
*Based on: Slater, T. and Anderson, N. (2012), The
reputational ghetto: territorial stigmatisation in St Paul’s,
Bristol. Transactions of the Institute of British Geographers,
37: 530–546. doi: 10.1111/j.1475-5661.2011.00490.x

• PRIVATE TROUBLES/PUBLIC ISSUES
• TRANSFORMING DISCIPLINARY PRACTICE
• EPISTEMIC DISJUNCTURE
Next?
• Develop a network – expand research capacity

paradox
