Thanks for sharing. James. While I'm very interested in at least two of these articles (Oshry and Bowen and Sensemaking), the range here and the lack of theme and the dubious qualifications of some of the articles to be about 'systems' reinforce my concerns about the journal and about any serious organisations or individuals associating with it and thereby lending it credibility. The lack of editing I have noted in some articles supports this.

It has been named as a predatory journal along with many published by MDPI - MDPI of course strenuously refute this but 'aggressively rent-seeking' doesn't feel like an inappropriate response. Links below including MDPI's attack.

As a systems community, don't we have a responsibilty to take this seriously?
