About us
The University of Michigan Press’s academic and regional publishing programs boast all the virtues of traditional not-for-profit scholarly publishing: commitment to selectivity, integrity of vetting processes, and a rigorous approach to sustainability. Whether publishing a scholarly monograph, a textbook, or a title of special regional interest, the Press is known for its high standards. And when it comes to metrics for success in the largely digital world of scholarly communication, we are setting the standards. The Press’s integral position within the University of Michigan Library enhances our dedication to the preservation, accessibility, and discoverability of the works we publish. We pioneered the development of robust and intuitive digital platforms. We continue to develop the technological and intellectual property infrastructure our authors need to commit their work to the durable scholarly record. A passion for accessibility and discoverability guides our approach to producing easily readable and searchable materials; our search for pragmatic open access solutions aims to address the challenges of the market. By leveraging technology, we enable our authors’ work to reach readers around the world, including those outside the academy. In the digital arena, Michigan excels, and indeed, is leader and best in the field.

Decades after the formal end of military rule, Korean workers still face stifling legal constraints on their freedom to engage in political activity. What does the ousting of a popular government official in Seoul last month mean for the Left's presence in national politics? Dr Jamie Doucette, reader in human geography and author of The Postdevelopmental State: Dilemmas of Economic Democratization in Contemporary South Korea (University of Michigan Press), writes for Jacobin Magazine. #SouthKorea #Seoul #HumanGeography

Catalyzing Creative Vision 🔎 💎 📡 | Higher Education Professional Film Festival Professional | ALL THE THINGS!
First a doctoral #dissertation, now a published digital archive ("album") from University of Michigan Press! 📡 🪩 Supported by a wisely progressive team of mentors in Clemson University's Rhetoric, Communication, and Information Design Program (#RCID) who saw the vital authenticity of his critical approach, A.D. Carson, PhD broke one of the oldest molds for academic credentialing when he wrote his authentic "book" to earn his doctorate. Congratulations on moving this work forward with this new publication!
“Owning My Masters (Mastered) is a digital archive of original rap music and spoken word poetry containing two volumes of music, an annotated timeline, videos, and a digital book. In this project, A.D. Carson exposes the artificial boundaries imposed on understood ideas about knowledge production in academia by employing hip-hop creative and compositional practices to interrogate ideas of citizenship, history, historical imagination, race, home, and humanness. Using sampled and live instrumentation and repurposed music, film, and news clips, an introductory video, and original rap lyrics, he offers a new examination of how to create theory through hip-hop.”

“What if artists didn’t have be more concerned with selling content than making and sharing meaningful art? In anticipation of this new album coming this month, ‘Owning My Masters (Mastered),’ this clip is me talking about why I publish open access music with an academic press (University of Michigan Press). I was invited to this web lecture series by Ben Spatz to chat with Obi Emelonye about my work. S/o to them.”
