I need some books paywalled behind Oxford Politics Trove and they aren’t on Anna’s lib, Zlib, Libgen, Memory of the World, Aaarg, or the Internet Archive. Not sure to whom else to turn to. I hate that knowledge like this is paywalled, and I highly doubt the authors will be paid if I pay the highway robbery of a price.

Hey mate, I extracted this one from Scribd using this Scribd downloader I found

Issues in Political Theory 2019

As of now I can’t find Rethinking political thinkers, but I found it on Academia.edu and it says there for 3usd (premium trial) you can get the PDF

Awesome! Thank you for telling me about Scribd downloader and finding the first book.

As for the Academia.edu link, it doesn’t seem like premium will provide the PDF, that’s just premium membership. The actual PDFs are governed by individual authors. Seems that author uploaded a preview of the book perhaps to indicate that they contributed to it so it counts as a citation.

You’re welcome!

May the winds of the high seas favor you (especially with the 2nd book). I’ll try to find it again if I have the time

Because there’s people on it like any other platform?

because the community is still quite small. Makes interactions more personal which leads to people being less of a dick in my experience.
