It does not have to be centrally controlled. You are talking more about planned economy than non-capitalist incentives. Perhaps you jumped to the conclusion that I am talking about the failed Soviet Union experiment when I say that capitalistic incentives harm literature and knowledge sharing? I am not referring to that, at all. Many people already write amazing works for non-capitalist incentives. Most research is done without them and they are often seen as a conflict of interest in producing good quality papers. A lot of textbooks are also written from need by teachers and professors rather than from capitalistic incentives. Many people just want to share their knowledge, this has been the case since before printed press. The main desirable property in a non-capitalistic economy of literature would be that literature would not be seen as means of growing capital. We have had such an approach to literature for a long time in history — a time with remarkably fewer garbage writings than today.
