Description
The Chomsky-Foucault Debate: On Human Nature captures a historic 1971 televised discussion between Noam Chomsky and Michel Foucault, two of the 20th century's most influential thinkers. Moderated by Dutch philosopher Fons Elders, the debate delves into profound questions about human nature, innate structures of knowledge, the foundations of justice, and the role of power in society. Chomsky, advocating for a universalist and rationalist perspective, posits that humans possess inherent linguistic and moral structures. In contrast, Foucault challenges the notion of a fixed human nature, emphasizing the historical and cultural contingencies that shape knowledge and societal norms.
