Research Abstract |
This study builds on intensive case studies of four scholarly publishers in Japan. Findings of this study shows that in order to delve into the role of publishers as gatekeepers of scholarly communication, one needs to analyze the making of the dualistic portfolio strategy and organizational identity of each publisher. The dualistic portfolio of scholarly publisher consists of a number of economic and non-economic capitals. The culture-commerce and craft-bureaucracy constitute two crucial axes of the organizational identity of the scholarly publisher.
