How can you act ethically in a publication system that attempts to regulate research activity in a way that you might find, in many respects, to be unethical? In this article, we address this question by drawing on the Aristotelian perspective of practical wisdom.

In particular, we show how some of them succeed in performing virtuous actions both within the publication system and beyond.
