Knowledge Socialism and/or Capitalism? An Interview with Steve Fuller, Yang Yang
This interview with Steve Fuller explores core tensions in contemporary knowledge production: between intellectual property and collective knowledge, institutional credit systems and knowledge circulation, and neoliberal and socialist frameworks for knowledge access. Its aim is to unpack how these tensions shape academic practice and to probe alternatives for aligning knowledge systems with their inherently collective nature. The interview adopted a semi-structured design, with questions developed to engage Professor Fuller’s recent work on knowledge recombination, academic priority disputes, and reinterpretations of neoliberalism and socialism.

Right and Left are fading away. The real question in politics will be: do you look to the earth or aspire to the skies?

Some people don't care if you learn anything from them as long as you respect them for who they are. It's almost as if they'd prefer to be an artwork than a resource. It's an interesting situation, which unfortunately is contaminated by the idea of selfishness.

The best way to overturn the standard is to confuse people about what the standard is. The first step is to render the discrete continuous.

If you want to remind people of what they already supposedly know, then do it succinctly like #Wittgenstein. Otherwise, it's not a reminder but a lesson. Latter-day analytic philosophers have totally missed the performative character of Wittgenstein's philosophy.
