Journal Article
Intellectual freedom: an endangered basic requirement of scientific publishing
2025
Overview
The intellectual capital of medicine is the creativity linking clinical practice and research. Intellectual freedom, that allows the emergence of new paradigms, is the basic component of scientific progress in medicine. There have been major threats to intellectual freedom in the past decades: financial conflicts of interest that allowed the drug industry to gain control of scientific societies, clinical practice guidelines and reporting investigations in meetings and journals; special interest groups suppressing the pluralism of viewpoints; financial thresholds for investigators reporting their data and views (open access journals); the totalitarian derive of Evidence-Based Medicine. Further, there have been growing attacks of publishers to the independence of editors and editorial boards, with the ensuing resignations of editors and members of the editorial boards. Such events recently occurred in a journal, Psychotherapy and Psychosomatics, that was a symbol of independent thinking, pluralism and innovations.
