Abstract

This work confronts the challenge of research infrastructure evaluation in Social Sciences and Humanities. Globalisation and data use are causing RIs to become more influential in the SSH. The European Union caught these new tendencies in its most recent plans for RIs development, as ESFRI. Brussels policymakers expressed an interest in the development of projects like OPERAS and DARIAH. The following work aims to underline the role of RIs in the SSH field and how it's possible to evaluate these programs. Taking inspiration from the works conducted in STEM infrastructures, we first define what an RI is, and then show the challenges posed by the evaluation of infrastructures in science. Moreover, we present a a viable methodology which could be able to capture the essence of the work conducted in SSH RIs. We end up showing the limits and possible conclusion that this line of research could draw.
