Cambridge Open Access
Flipping the traditional publishing model upside down
What is Flip it Open?
Flip it Open is a Cambridge University Press programme which aims to sustainably fund open access to over 100 book titles through existing purchasing habits. Once the titles meet a set revenue threshold, we have committed to making them available as open access books on Cambridge Core, as well as affordable paperbacks. By making books open access in response to them being purchased early in their life, we are flipping the traditional publishing model upside down.
How has the programme expanded so far?
The Flip it Open pilot included 28 titles across HSS subjects and its success has led us to continue with the programme on an ongoing basis, with over 120 titles flipped. The programme includes books from every area in which we publish, including fields within STM. As we always make it clear to all that the purchased titles are part of the project, it is our customers’ buying habits and the simple process of flipping the titles that determine the success and sustainability of Flip it Open.

Elitism versus Populism
Experiments on the Dual Threat to American Democracy Series: Experimental Political Science
Author Information
Curtis
Bram, University of Texas, Dallas
9781009546898 May 2025 Core 74pp
Critics of populism and advocates of elitist democracy often place greater confidence in political elites than in the general public. However, this trust may be misplaced. In five experiments with local politicians, state legislators, and members of the public, the author finds a similar willingness across all groups to entrench their party’s power when given the opportunity – a self-serving majoritarianism that transcends partisan lines.
