Summary:

From Google Translate: "The Internet raised expectations of open and free access to the latest findings from the field of science, as called for by the open access movement for 15 years. To date, one third of the essays are available in Open Access archives or OA journals. The market position of major publishers is stronger than before. Science alliances want to now open Open Access through license negotiations with the publishers through a general transformation of the business model. Instead of access, the publication will be subject to a fee. The paper discusses possible risks for the open, unimpeded publication of new scientific findings. At present, three approaches are being pursued: First, financial hurdles for the author's publication opportunities are avoided by a flat-rate payment of publication fees. Secondly, the risk is first circumvented by the choice between OA or free publication - with risks for the transformation strategy. Thirdly, individual publication fees for authors are reimbursed by employers or sponsors - with risks for publication possibilities, which should be empirically investigated."
