Völkerrechtsblog: an international law blog that is open access by principle

Völkerrechtsblog is an academic blog on international public law, and every piece on it is open access. It began in 2014 within a network of young German-speaking international law scholars and now publishes work from authors around the world. Besides blog posts it carries podcasts, interviews and symposia, and it is especially interested in critical and postcolonial perspectives such as the Third World Approaches to International Law. Its editors have written about how a free blog can open the field to readers in more than 150 countries. Because the pieces are scholars' arguments rather than court rulings, read them as commentary.
