“openness is in danger of becoming its own enemy as it becomes an orthodoxy difficult to question.” Steve Song (2015)

If open access is progressing so well, why are the same old established powers flourishing more than ever before?
Why are the dominant commercial publishers still making record profits, and gaining increasing share of the total scholarly outputs?
And why are they still serving as the primary arbiter of scientific legitimacy and academic reputation?

“Commercial publishers now play a role in publishing over 60 percent of all peer–reviewed journals, owning 45 percent outright and publishing another 17 percent on behalf of non–profit organizations.”
Raym Crow, 2006http://www.uic.edu/htbin/cgiwrap/bin/ojs/index.php/fm/article/view/1396/1314

At the core of “openness” is really about the transformative power of the Internet and how best to harness it, by whom, and for what end.

Two competing ideologies
Public interest science vs private sector science
![Page 12: The Future of Open Science and How to Stop it](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062503/58edf15b1a28ab93748b4617/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Science as a public goods, to serve humanities and to improve people’s lives
Science as a source of raw materials to be exploited for economic gains
![Page 13: The Future of Open Science and How to Stop it](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062503/58edf15b1a28ab93748b4617/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Openness has not disrupted the current power structure because it has been subsumed by the dominant market ideology
![Page 14: The Future of Open Science and How to Stop it](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062503/58edf15b1a28ab93748b4617/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
“…data is the new oil for the digital age. How many other
ways could stimulate a market worth 70 billion
euros a year, without spending big budgets? Not
many, I'd say.”
Neelie KroesVice-President of the European Commission responsible for the Digital Agendahttp://europa.eu/rapid/press-release_SPEECH-12-149_en.htm

The two ideologies lead to different outcomes
Knowledge Commons for all humanity
Open “oil field” for extraction

And they call for different forms of governance, institutions, and sustainability models

Winning Horizon 2020 with Open Science
WHY Open Science in Horizon 2020?Open Science (OS) offers researchers tools and workflows for transparency, reproducibility, dissemination and transfer of new knowledge. Ultimately, this can also have an impact on in research evaluation exercises, e.g. Research Excellence Framework (REF), set to demand greater “societal impact” in future, rather than just research output[1]. OS can also be an effective tool for research managers to transfer knowledge to society, and optimize the use and re-use by unforeseen collaborators. For funders, OS offers a better return on investment (ROI) for public funding, and underpins the EU Digital Agenda by measurably contributing to economic growth.

Where are the actors in all these?
How do we map the “qualities” of openness:inclusiveness, diversity of voices, receptiveness, accountability, intention, choices, and TRUST

“Academia.edu’s financial rationale rests on exploiting the data flows generated by the academics who use the platform. The open access movement is in danger of being outflanked, if not rendered irrelevant by centralised entities like Academia.edu who can capture, analyse and exploit extremely large amounts of data.”Gary Hall (2015)http://blogs.lse.ac.uk/impactofsocialsciences/2015/10/22/does-academia-edu-mean-open-access-is-becoming-irrelevant/

But the exploitation of data by knowledge traders is not new. What’s new is the scale and pervasiveness.
Surveillance tools are proliferating in the forms of metrics, “likes”, “mentions” and algorithms.

Openness as a means to development
What is the nature of “openness” and its linkage to innovations for public goods and how can this understanding help formulate and support enabling policies?
![Page 31: The Future of Open Science and How to Stop it](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062503/58edf15b1a28ab93748b4617/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
A proposition that open models and peer-based production, enabled by pervasive network technologies, non-market based incentive structures and alternative licensing regimes, could result in greater participation, access and collaboration across different social and economic sectors.

Meanings of Openness• Free of cost barriers• Free of permission barriers• Free to share and re-use• Rights to Research, meaning the rights to
participate in knowledge production and meaning making• Inclusive Participation (beyond expertise)• Equitable Collaboration • Promote Cognitive justice

“The right to science envisages the scientific and technological endeavor as a process that every person is entitled to participate in—a collective and collaborative process that can help to unite a frequently fragmented world.”

This call for:• Diverse empirical research on “openness” across
disciplinary boundaries • Development of rich conceptual frameworks that
acknowledge the diversity of knowledge production, forms of representations, and legitimation • Understanding principles of technical and social
interoperability and the supporting institutional structures• Rethinking on funding support and incentive structures• Policy Alignment between funders and development
organizations

Open Science as Inclusive Science• Could OCS thinking and practices lead to a
more inclusive view of knowledge production and legitimation?
• What kind of tools, standards, infrastructure, institutions and policies would need to be created or adapted to enable OCS and equal participation of researchers from marginalized regions?
