This volume brings together a landmark 1971 debate between Chomsky and Foucault, supplemented by related essays, in which both thinkers articulate contrasting views on human nature, justice, power, language, and politics. Through their arguments and reflections, the book illuminates how differing philosophical frameworks — one rooted in rationalistic universalism, the other in historicist relativism — lead to divergent understandings of justice, authority, and the role of human nature in political life.
