Overview

[AI Summary]: This book critically examines the commercialization of open access publishing and proposes an alternative vision based on commons theory, care ethics, and scholar-led initiatives.

The work critiques market-centric approaches like Plan S and advocates for a commons-based publishing landscape managed by academic communities through collective governance and mutual reliance.
