The focus is on the question whether a copyright regime or an open access regime is better suited to the norms and organizational structure in a purely global science community.

It also takes account of the Digital Divide debate, reflecting issues in developing countries. Finally, a comprehensive analysis of legal action in the light of international Intellectual Property (IP) agreements offers prospects on the future of academic publishing
