Want to Change Academic Publishing? Just Say No - 0 views

  •  
    This article discusses the economic nature of publishing from the viewpoint of an author and editor of the works of others. The author explains the legitimacy of publishing companies' practices in the past, but calls into question those of modern for-profit publishers. He rejects the current model, in which his readers would pay more for a day's use of his article than for either of his books, and supports a billable-hours system like that of lawyers or psychiatrists.

On a Definition of Open Humanities - 1 views

  •  
    This article comments on common ideas found in many definitions of digital humanities. The author uses the collaborative aspects of digital humanities to draw connections to a broader description of what he calls the open humanities. This new distinction includes the "aspects of the humanities aimed at democratizing production and consumption of humanities research," but excludes the purely digital elements of the digital humanities, such as code, markup, and hardware.
