<p class="MsoNormal"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal">If, for the OSI, ‘<span
style="mso-ansi-language:
EN-US" lang="EN-US">open scholarship and open science are
tremendously diverse and
interconnected spaces’
(<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://osiglobal.org/2020/06/01/open-science-policy-recommendations-to-unesco/">http://osiglobal.org/2020/06/01/open-science-policy-recommendations-to-unesco/</a>),</span>then
so are the ‘commons’, I would argue. </p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Sure, there is the liberal tradition of writing
on the commons
of Elinor Ostrom, <span style="mso-ansi-language:EN-US"
lang="EN-US">Garrett
Hardin </span>and Yochai Benkler. This approach focuses on the
normative
frameworks and principles of governance and self-organisation that
best allow a
shared pool of spaces and resources to be managed and maintained
as a specific
property regime. </p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal">But if we are going to think of open access in
terms of the
commons then we also need to engage with the more radical
theoretical tradition of writing on the subject associated with
the likes of
Michael Hardt and Antonio Negri, <span
style="mso-ansi-language:EN-US" lang="EN-US">Silvia Federici,</span>
Isabelle Stengers, Paolo Virno, Maurice
Blanchot, Giorgio Agamben, Denise Ferreira da Silva, Fred Moten
and Stefano
Harney, Pierre Dardot and Christian Laval, Massimo De
Angelis... In contrast to the liberal tradition, these theorists
are less
concerned with associating the commons with things – land,<span
style="mso-ansi-language:EN-US" lang="EN-US"> sea, water, air,
music files, digital books
and articles, software, code – and </span>more with the social
relations of
commoning; with constructing the commons on the basis of shared
political
activities, practices and principles.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I’m mentioning all this not to make the very
obvious point that the
commons, like OA, means different things to different people.
Rather it’s to build on Sam’s contribution, as I say: for the
commons, like
open access, requires specific articulations if it is to reflect a
progressive political agenda.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Marek Korczysnki and Andreas Wittel have
recently provided
an interesting account of the differences between liberal
philosophy and
radical theory when it comes to the commons in their ‘The
Workplace Commons:
Towards Understanding Commoning Within Work Relations’, <i
style="mso-bidi-font-style:
normal">Sociology</i> 1-6, 2020.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I single this article out in particular because
it covers
some of the issues involved in trying to create a commons in the
context of working
in an institution such as a university. </p>

<div>FWIW the article of mine that Glenn mentions about open
access as a boundary object is intended to emphasise that OA
is not <i>necessarily</i> politically progressive
(following Tkacz and others) but that it can be in certain
circumstances. The argument tries to remind readers that OA
means a lot of different things to different groups and so
it requires specific articulations (closures) for it to
reflect a progressive agenda (which is ultimately what I’m
arguing for). The article is absolutely not an argument in
favour of a ‘diversity’ of politics, which feels to me just
an excuse for conservatism, but rather an acceptance that OA
is inescapably political in a variety of ways (for better or
worse). So you cannot discuss OA in a vacuum -- it is always
political and will never be founded entirely in consensus.<br>
<br>
This is perhaps why ‘the commons’ is most helpful as a
politicisation of OA. The commons itself refers to the
ability of labour to self-organise its own production, in
distinction to both market and state modes. Commons do not
necessarily escape capitalism (and have been encouraged by
neoliberal policymakers such as the World Bank) but they are
largely antagonistic towards it. Focusing on the commons is
one way of foregrounding production over outputs, which is
to say that we can argue all day long about definitions of
OA but that ultimately the mode of production is more
important than the mode of access itself. I've long thought
that the commons is a better frame for the futures of
publishing as it moves beyond conversations of access and
towards collaborative knowledge production more generally
(of which open access to resources can be important,
alongside issues relating to bibliodiversity, governance,
capitalism, etc.). <br>

The executive summary is this: “Open”
is a very diverse space. Not only do
our definitions of open differ
greatly, so too do our perceptions of
the etymology of open (whether we use
BOAI as the starting point or just one
point among many). Also, critically,
our open goals and motives differ
greatly in this community; open
progress and approaches vary by field
of study; and different approaches
have different focus points,
principles, incentives, and financial
considerations. In short, our
challenge of creating a more open

for sharing this. I’ve also found
Ostrom’s work on the commons helpful
in assessing some of the emerging
issues in this area, and you might
be interested to read an article I
wrote on Plan S and the commons,
which also references Ostrom’s
principles. I reached very similar
conclusions to you, arguing that
there would be a need for
‘polycentricity’ and ‘adaptative
governance’ for the Plan to succeed
– echoing your observations on the
value of collective choice,
adaptation to local conditions and
‘nested enterprises’.</span></p>

lang="EN-GB">The context of this paper
is an analysis of three emerging
models for developing a global
knowledge commons. The concept of a
‘global knowledge commons’ builds on
the vision of the original Budapest
Open Access Initiative (2002) for the
potential of combining academic
tradition and the internet to remove
various access barriers to the
scholarly literature, thus laying the
foundation for an unprecedented public
good, uniting humanity in a common
quest for knowledge. The global
knowledge commons is a universal
sharing of the knowledge of humankind,
free for all to access (recognizing
reasons for limiting sharing in some
circumstances such as to protect
individual privacy), and free for
everyone qualified to contribute to.
The three models are Plan S /
cOAlition S, an EU-led initiative to
transition all of scholarly publishing
to an open access model on a short
timeline; the Global Sustainability
Coalition for Open Science Services
(SCOSS), a recent initiative that
builds on Ostrom’s study of the
commons; and PubMedCentral (PMC)
International, building on the
preservation and access to the medical
research literature provided by the
U.S. National Institutes of Health to
support other national repositories of
funded research and exchange of
materials between regions. The
research will involve analysis of
official policy and background
briefing documents on the three
initiatives and relevant historical
projects, such as the Research Council
U.K.’s block grants for article
processing charges, the EU-led OA2020
initiative, Europe PMC and the
short-lived PMC-Canada. Theoretical
analysis will draw on Ostrom’s work on
the commons, theories of development,
under-development, epistemic /
knowledge inequity and the concepts of
Chan and colleagues (2011) on the
importance of moving beyond
north-to-south access to knowledge
(charity model) to include
south-to-south and south-to-north
(equity model). This model analysis
contributes to build a comparative
view of transcontinental efforts for a
global knowledge commons building with
shared values of open access, sharing
and collaboration, in contrast to the
growing trend of commodification of
scholarly knowledge evident in both
traditional subscriptions /
purchase-based scholarly publishing
and in commercial open access
publishing. We anticipate that our
findings will indicate that a digital
world of inclusiveness and reciprocity
is possible, but cannot be taken for
granted, and policy support is
crucial. Global communication and
information policy have much to
contribute towards the development of
a sustainable global knowledge
commons.</span><span
