This paper discusses the changing knowledge production inKorea in the era of globalization, revealing the misconception of the SSCI in the discourse on quality of research papers in Korea. Both the Korea government and universities conceive the SSCI as representing quality of paper internationally recognized. Contrary to that perception, the SSCI simply represents the citation index produced by the private information company to sell information as commodity. Furthermore, the SSCI used by the English speaking world does not report research out-come of non-English speaking world. Emphasis on the SSCI mis-conceives that the social is significantly varying according to temporal and spatial dimension of society. Therefore, social science does not pur-sue unity of science as a philosophy of science. Without reflecting the very nature of social science, the discourse on the SSCI distorts the na-tional knowledge production in the periphery.
