Auto-censura (self-censorship) – an ordinary and integral part of research life(?) Work in Progress in a form of an essay

Abstrakt

This work-in-progress paper paves future research regarding the practice of autocensura (self-censorship). Starting from auto-biographical experience, the text shifts into a more theoretical reflection about this part of the scholarly work, which is hidden and unstudied. The working definition of the analyzed phenomenon aims to open an academic discussion about this practice. The paper ends with the call for testimonies and participation in the study.
