摘要

The following views are in response to the letter entitled 'Why should nonresidents pay more conference fees?' by D. Balasubramanian (Curr. Sci., 2001, 81,435). The letter questions the practice of non-residents being charged a greater registration fee at conferences compared to resident Indians. Let us extend the question further. Why should participants from private industry (like myself) pay more than participants from government or R&D labs, as is common in engineering conferences'? Why should nonstudents pay more than students? On a related line, why should institutional subscribers pay more lot a journal than individual subscribers? The answer in all these cases is glaringly obvious: Because they can afford to! Such crosssubsidization is a well-accepted practice in scientific circles and I for one cannot see anything wrong with it. Indeed, by wide-basing the participation at conferences, such a practice actually promotes the health of the scientific community at large.

Balasubramanian(Curr.SCI。,2001,81,435)。 与居民印第安人相比,这封信提出了非居民在会议上收取更高的注册费。 让我们进一步延伸问题。 为什么从私营行业(如我自己)的参与者应该超过政府或研发实验室的参与者,这是工程会议的常见常见的? 为什么不经历的人应该比学生更多? 在相关线路上,为什么机构用户应该支付更多的历程,而不是个人订阅者? 所有这些案例的答案都明显明显:因为他们可以负担得起! 这种横梁化是科学界的良好的实践,我认为我无法看到任何问题。 事实上,通过广泛地基于会议的参与,这种做法实际上促进了大量科学界的健康。
