Two of the twentieth century's most influential thinkers debate a perennial question.
In 1971, at the height of the Vietnam War and at a time of great political and social instability, two of the world's leading intellectuals, Noam Chomsky and Michel Foucault, were invited by Dutch philosopher Fons Edlers to debate an age-old question: is there such a thing as "innate" human nature independent of our experiences and external influences?
The resulting dialogue is one of the most original, provocative, and spontaneous exchanges to have occurred between contemporary philosophers, and above all serves as a concise introduction to their basic theories. What begins as a philosophical argument rooted in linguistics (Chomsky) and the theory of knowledge (Foucault), soon evolves into a broader discussion encompassing a wide range of topics, from science, history, and behaviorism to creativity, freedom, and the struggle for justice in the realm of politics.
In addition to the debate itself, this volume features a newly written introduction by noted Foucault scholar John Rajchman and includes additional text by Noam Chomsky.

讀這個對話錄,內容倒先不講。我起碼覺得上得瞭颱麵的人辯證思維能力要發展得很好。兩個人交流觀點,其實是在補充同一個命題的不同方麵,首先得有這種概念,並不是“你對我錯”這種對立式的搏殺。人當然有主觀傾嚮,prefer to 完全可以理解,都是情結在作怪。重要的是不是所有...
評分莫尤 【早些時候用小號寫過的一篇書評,偶然看到,納悶怎麼這麼眼熟。。。。】 此書是1971年喬姆斯基與福柯論辯的産物,根據訪談者方斯.厄爾德斯的描述,“兩位大師的外貌和內心大相徑庭”,這恐怕是讀後最粗淺的印象之一,喬姆斯基溫婉而客氣地滔...
評分名學者的對話或者論辯,一嚮容易引起人的興趣,因是思想的交鋒,大師的對弈,無須第三者來闡釋雙方,直接過招。像韆年前的宋朝那場鵝湖之會,四麵八方的求知者趕來聽辯論,聽者之眾,傳說騎來的馬把書院前的湖水都飲乾瞭。當然觀眾也免不瞭抱有看一方齣醜的期待。 福柯和喬姆斯...

評分看《福柯的生死愛欲》又想起這書,談到的好像就是這場世紀辯論。摘兩段喬對福柯的評價,原書見第六章,p266&p268: 一邊讀一邊發笑。我也不確定我讀懂福柯多少,大概很少很少,但他真是個對我意義重大的哲學傢(可能因為我們同一天生日,他就在我心裏比較特彆,哈哈);在...
