Unlocking Knowledge: Open Access Publishing and Online Peer Review with Professor Austin Choi-Fitzpatrick

In the information age, knowledge is power. Hence, facilitating the access to knowledge to wider publics empowers citizens and makes societies more democratic.
Imagine a world where everyone has free access to academic knowledge. In this episode of 'New Books in Drugs, Addiction and Recovery', Professor Austin Choi-Fitzpatrick takes us on a journey through the transformative power of open access publishing and massive online peer review. His book, 'The Good Drone: How Social Movements Democratize Surveillance', is at the heart of this discussion.

This episode dives into how these innovative methods can break down barriers to knowledge and make it accessible to all. Professor Choi-Fitzpatrick explains the mechanics behind massive online peer review (MOPR) and open access (OA), offering insights into how these practices can empower citizens and foster a more democratic society. You'll hear about the challenges and opportunities that come with these approaches, including new business models for open access and ways to tackle obstacles to accessible knowledge.
The conversation is a fascinating look at how bridging the gap between academia and the public can drive societal change. Whether you're an academic, a student, or just someone curious about the future of knowledge sharing, this episode offers valuable perspectives on making information more inclusive.
