Journal Announcement: Journal of Political Philosophy--Free Articles

The Journal of Political Philosophy has taken a step towards open access, by making several key articles available without charge.  As readers of Legal Theory Blog know, I believe that open access is vitally important and that publication in any venue that does not provide open access is irresponsible scholarship.  I applaud this step, and urge the Journal of Political Philosophy to make all articles available through an open access system.
