Round-up: OA Articles Published by Global South Authors (31 Oct. 2022)

Generally, articles are included if either the lead author or at least half of the co-authors are based in the GS. These references are organized by type of open access.

- Themed issue on "Knowledge, Voice and Power": Over recent years, debates about race, representation and inequality have brought questions of power and voice to people who had not previously engaged with issues of marginalisation and exclusion, and at the same time have given momentum to others who were already active in challenging the status quo. Localisation agendas within the aid sector, social movements such as Black Lives Matter and wider debates about decolonisation have generated reflection on the inequalities that exist within the field of forced migration, in research and knowledge, policy and practice. In this edition of Forced Migration Review, the authors reflect on progress made but also on the road still to travel. They challenge attitudes, highlight injustices and make practical recommendations for change."

Migration in Africa: Shifting Patterns of Mobility from the 19th to the 21st Century (Routledge, April 2022) [open access]

- "This book introduces readers to the age of intra-African migration, a period from the mid-19th century onward in which the center of gravity of African migration moved decisively inward. Most books tend to zoom in on Africa’s external migration during the earlier intercontinental slave trades and the more recent outmigration to the Global North, but this book argues that migration within the continent has been far more central to the lives of Africans over the course of the last two centuries. The book demonstrates that only by taking a broad historical and continent-wide perspective can we understand the distinctions between the more immediate drivers of migration and deeper patterns of change over time."

OA Week 2022: Go Green!

While the previously posted bibliography of climate change-related articles highlighted only very recent items, it still roughly mirrors patterns of open access publishing by authors based in the Global South that I have reported on in earlier analyses: The two most commonly selected vehicles tend to be 1) open access journals that do not charge a publication fee (APC) ("diamond journals"); and 2) APC-based "gold" OA journals. Whereas the two least common OA options for GS authors are: 1) publishing in hybrid journals, i.e., subscription-based journals that will make articles open access upon payment of a (usually much higher) publication fee; and green OA, i.e., depositing postprint versions of articles that have been accepted by hybrid journals in an institutional or subject repository (also referred to as "self-archiving").

Actually, I was not able to locate any examples of green OA to include in the climate change bibliography. This is likely due in part to the very narrow date range I used (2021-2022)! But low counts of green OA are frequently observed for most authors, not just those based in the Global South. 

So the message that I hope to impart during this year's climate change-focused Open Access Week is -- go Green! Why? It incurs no costs to the author or reader, it complies with funder mandates, it allows authors to continue publishing articles in conventional journals of their choice, and it ensures long-term preservation of and access to an author's research. 

While many of the biggest journal publishers have imposed restrictions on where and when a postprint can be self-archived, there are a growing number of publishers who have eliminated these restrictions and allow postprints to be deposited in a variety of places immediately. 

One of these publishers is SAGE. The two following climate change-related articles were recently published in SAGE journals by authors based in the Global South:

"Analysing the Legal Rights of the Climate Refugees during COVID-19 Pandemic in India: Challenges to International Law," Asian Journal of Legal Education, vol. 9, no. 2 (2022)

"Relocation, Climate Change and Finding a Place of Belonging for Rohingya Refugees," Journal of Peacebuilding & Development, OnlineFirst, 5 Oct. 2022  

According to SAGE's self-archiving policy, the authors of these articles can proceed with "posting a downloadable copy [of the author accepted manuscript] on any website, saving a copy in any repository or network, sharing a copy through any social media channel, and distributing print or electronic copies...any time after your paper is accepted and in any format." The policy also provides additional details on the conditions for posting.

Typically, academic authors should first check with their institutions to see if a repository is available to them. Alternatively, authors without access to an institutional repository may opt for a subject-related one like SSRN or a multidisciplinary one like Zenodo. 

There is always an initial learning curve with new endeavors! But going Green is a relatively straightforward process, and it helps to ensure that a broader spectrum of voices reach a larger audience.

Next steps: Check out this post for more info on how to go Green, and/or visit my Forced Migration & Open Access blog to learn about open access more generally.

OA Week 2022: Theme is "Open for Climate Justice"

This week is Open Access Week! From the Open Access Week theme page: "Climate Justice is an explicit acknowledgement that the climate crisis has far-reaching effects, and the impacts are 'not be[ing] borne equally or fairly, between rich and poor, women and men, and older and younger generations,' as the UN notes. These power imbalances also affect communities’ abilities to produce, disseminate, and use knowledge around the climate crisis. Openness can create pathways to more equitable knowledge sharing and serve as a means to address the inequities that shape the impacts of climate change and our response to them."

Striving for greater equity in the production and sharing of knowledge has also been an ongoing focus of the forced migration research community. As such, this post features recently published (2021-2022) climate change-related articles produced by authors based in the Global South. The references are organized by type of open access to highlight various OA issues that will be discussed further in upcoming posts.
