Steve Fuller

Steve Fuller is a philosopher known for his work in social epistemology, which examines how social factors influence knowledge creation and dissemination, particularly in science. He argues that science is not just a collection of facts but is shaped by societal norms, values, and practices. Fuller emphasizes the importance of understanding science as a social process and advocates for a more democratic approach to scientific knowledge. His work encourages us to consider how knowledge is produced and justified within social contexts, challenging traditional views that separate science from its societal implications.
