Mikromonetarisierung und freie Wissenschaft? Die Wissenspolitik der VG Wort und ihre Folgen
Authors :
Abstract
What an author is, affects media studies on many channels: Are thoughts free, can they belong to someone? If a work can be copied and circulated, how should it be shared? Many became directly aware of the economic constitution of the circulation of knowledge last year when the availability of scholarly literature for university instruction became, without further ado, extremely limited as a result of failed negotiations with VG Wort. Under the title «Micro-Monetization and Academic Freedom?», Sebastian Gießmann and Florian Sprenger have discussed the debate online since November 2016 in terms of academic politics, law, and the politics of education, in particular the planned individual registration of all texts used in research and teaching, for the Zeitschrift für Medienwissenschaft online; here they present current developments in the debate, in turn commented upon by Serjoscha Wiemer. The implications of new models of open access in terms of cultural history, technology, and subject (de)constitution shall be discussed in future contributions.
