Judging and Justifying Steve Fuller’s Orthogonality
Steve Fuller's recent book, To Judge and To Justify: Profiles of the Academic Vocation, serves as a point of entry for a dialogue on the intellectual enterprise of social epistemology. Sharon Rider begins by identifying and interrogating a handful of key concepts in Fuller's arsenal of provocative ideas, honing in especially on the notions of orthogonality and modal power as in tandem forming the engine propelling the project. She places Fuller's…

Twitter and the aphoristic (re)turn in thought, knowledge and education
The article focuses on the resurgence of aphoristic expression, particularly in relation to Twitter, examining its impact on thought, knowledge, and education. Topics include the definition and ambiguity surrounding aphorisms, their role in philosophy across different cultures, and defense of Twitter as a medium for intellectual discourse, connecting historical and modern examples of aphoristic styles from Wittgenstein to contemporary criticisms …
Fitting and Fudging
I propose that the ‘post-truth condition’, i.e., the vulnerability of our institutions for establishing and negotiating what is true and worth knowing, is not primarily a pathology, a susceptibility to external manipulation or coercion, as tends to be stressed in the literature, but has first and foremost to do with the unraveling of certain epistemic assumptions. In analogy with T.S. Eliot’s modernist notion that the attempt to capture and concr…

Human Freedom and the Philosophical Attitude
Attempts to describe the essential features of the Western philosophical tradition can often be characterized as 'boundary work', that is, the attempt to create, promote, attack, or reinforce specific notions of the 'philosophical' in order to demarcate it as a field of intellectual inquiry. During the last century, the dominant tendency has been to delineate the discipline in terms of formal methods, techniques, and concepts and a given set of s…
The Future of the European University
This paper examines the prevalent notion that that the production of knowledge, academic research and teaching can and ought to be audited and assessed in the same manner as the production of other goods and services. The emphasis on similarities between industry and the academy leads to a neglect of fundamental differences in their aims and, as a consequence, a tendency to evaluate scientific research in terms of patents and product development …
Nyttan av den akademiska friheten
The university is like a corporation insofar as it aims to meet the needs of the society in which it operates. In this respect, the widespread notion that academic research and teaching can and ought to be audited and assessed in a manner comparable to the criteria used by corporations, such as quality assurance, reaching new markets and so forth, makes good sense, and attempts at making it more efficient and productive understandable. But in emp…
