Alternatives to mainstream publishing within and beyond academia

Chertkovskaya, Ekaterina LU (2021) In Ephemera: Theory and Politics in Organization 21(4). p.117-142
Abstract
For the 20-year anniversary of ephemera journal, we have invited eight collectives engaged in alternatives to mainstream publishing to tell us about the initiatives they are part of. The task of ephemera, in turn, has been to bring them together. In this forum the collectives introduce what they do, articulating their political commitments and organising principles, whilst not shying away from the challenges and limitations of their work. Together, they illuminate the politics and organisation of alternatives to mainstream publishing, giving a rich picture of what alternatives can look like. They also help us rethink what it means to be open (access).
