However, making scientific literature free of barriers to readers requires solutions to make publication economically feasible and perennial in the eyes of its community. Charging article processing fees (APC) is a means to provide financial sustainability to these publications but it raises opposing and favorable positions. This work investigates different arguments on the subject and their interrelations, using the cartography of controversies, a method derived from the Actor-Network Theory elaborated by Latour, Callon, Law and collaborators. The mapping of such a controversy allowed identifying differences in positioning between disciplinary fields, geopolitical asymmetries, and historical transformations, in addition to repercussions on the current information regime. Among the main findings, stand out the contrasting views between Global North and South countries about the commercial/non-commercial character of the scientific publication system and the asymmetries, both disciplinary and geographic, in the distribution of resources for the financing of scientific communication. O desenvolvimento do modelo em Acesso Aberto traz, em seu bojo, uma proposta de mudança na forma da comunicação científica. Porém, tornar a literatura científica livre de barreiras ao leitor requer soluções que tornem a publicação economicamente exequível e perene ante a sua comunidade. A cobrança de taxas de processamento de artigos (APC) é uma proposta para dar sustentabilidade financeira a essas publicações, mas o uso desse modelo para garantir acesso aberto suscita posicionamentos contrários e favoráveis. Este trabalho se propõe a investigar os diferentes argumentos sobre tema e suas inter-relações, por meio do método de cartografia de controvérsias derivada da Teoria Ator-Rede elaborada por Latour, Callon, Law e colaboradores, com base em uma pesquisa bibliográfica em bases de acesso aberto. O mapeamento permitiu identificar diferenças de posicionamento entre campos disciplinares, assimetrias geopolíticas e transformações históricas, além de repercussões sobre o regime de informação vigente. Destacam-se, entre os principais achados, as visões contrastantes entre países do Norte e Sul Global acerca do caráter comercial/não comercial do sistema de publicação científica e as assimetrias tanto disciplinares quanto geográficas na distribuição de recursos para o financiamento da comunicação científica.
