This week we discuss prefigurative politics in academia with Stefano Davide Vianello, a PhD student at @EPFL_en in Switzerland. This is the idea that in order to change how a system works we should act in a way that reflects the change we want to see. In Stefano’s case: preprinting to be the end goal and he has therefore submitted a preprint without any intention of submitting it to a journal. We speak to him about his reasons for this, why he is against academics paying for open access as well as 4 key points on what has to change to make academia more open for everyone, not just the global north.
