Publication Type: Conference Paper/Unpublished Manuscript Abstract: Different forms of capital, as power resource, are commonplace in academia. Academics commonly make a name for themselves in print. Publication in top-tier journals confers prestige to many scholars. In this paper, intellectual capital is used to explain how scientific value becomes affixed to publications. I focus on reception and recognition of research articles valued for tenure and promotion in academic fields from the vantage point of minority scholars. In-depth interviews with Latino faculty at twelve research universities were conducted. Faculty accounts reveal their understanding of the translation of scholarship investments to intellectual capital as playing a decisive role in tenure and promotion. Ideas held by faculty about the link between intellectual capital and academic promotion vary by career longevity, academic rank and discipline. Polemics over the scientificity of research reproductions, the gist of a struggle for symbolic power, suggests new directions for further research on how we report faculty discourse.
