[GOAL] Published: "Open Divide? Critical Studies on Open Access"

[Ulrich Herb]

Dear colleagues,


On April 1st, the anthology "Open Divide? Critical Studies on Open Access" was published, http://litwinbooks.com/open-divide.php. It reflects the seldomly discussed effects and tendencies of Open Access, such as its instrumentalisation for scientific monitoring, its economisation, its ambivalent functions for the North-South-Divide and analyses its diversity, e.g. through a genealogy of Open Access.

The editors, Joachim Schöpfel and me, did not choose to publish the book in Gold Open Access but the publisher, Rory Litwin of Litwin Books, allowed the authors to retain rights for a Green Open Access publication of their contributions. Each of the articles in the book, but not the book as a whole, can be made available under a Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial 4.0 License. Here you will find a list of all contributions, including links to Open Access versions of the contributions. If new Open Access versions are made available, the list will be updated: https://www.scinoptica.com/open-divide-critical-studies-on-open-access/

 


Best regards

Ulrich Herb
