Politics and Open Science: How the European Open Science Cloud Became Reality (the Untold Story)
Jean‐Claude Burgelman
Abstract
This article will document how the European Open Science Cloud (EOSC) emerged as one of the key policy intentions to foster Open Science (OS) in Europe. It will describe some of the typical, non-rational roadblocks on the way to implement EOSC. The article will also argue that the only way Europe can take care of its research data in a way that fits the European specificities fully, is by supporting EOSC.
