NEW TITLE | The Politics of Open Infrastructures: Power, Governance, and Justice in Digital Knowledge Practices, edited by Katja Mayer, Astrid Mager and Renée Ridgway Read freely or buy a copy: buff.ly/vI0ZShM #OAbooks #OpenInfrastructures #OpenAccess
The book in hardback on a coloured background next to text that says:

The Politics of Open Infrastructures:
Power, Governance, and Justice in Digital Knowledge Practices edited by Katja Mayer, Astrid Mager and Renée Ridgway

This volume examines how openness is designed, governed, contested and lived in contemporary digital knowledge infrastructures. From open source software and internet standards, to citizen science platforms, public sector data systems and alternative computing practices, the book shows that infrastructures are never neutral technical backbones. They are deeply political arrangements that embed values, distribute power and shape whose knowledge counts.

Bringing together scholars from science and technology studies, critical data studies, media studies, organisation studies, arts-based research and political sociology, this edited volume explores openness as an ongoing socio-technical process rather than a fixed ideal. The book moves from the partial openness of early Internet standards and free and open source software, through contested practices of opening government data and public infrastructures, to struggles over inclusion and governance in scholarly and cultural knowledge infrastructures. This is followed by community-driven experiments in care, repair and alternative openness and concludes with forward-looking contributions on how to keep infrastructures open for research, how to fund infrastructures as digital commons and how to mobilise open in
