[GOAL] Market Capitalism and Open Access

[Eric F. Van de Velde]

Happy new year to all on GOAL!

To start out 2014, I investigate the following question on my blog:

Is it feasible to create a self-regulating market for Open Access (OA)
journals where competition for money is aligned with the quest for
scholarly excellence?

I hope the answer satisfies European collectivists and Rand-inspired
capitalists alike...
