Abstract

ABSTRACT While Jeffrey Friedman’s Power Without Knowledge offers a welcome corrective to the technocratic statism that dominates modern politics, Wittgenstein’s view of language suggests that the problem of ideational heterogeneity is less worrisome than Friedman maintains. In addition, Friedman’s “exitocracy” is as epistemically demanding as ordinary technocracy and thus cannot provide an alternative to it. Anarchism, however, might provide a more consistent alternative to technocracy.

权力、知识和无政府主义

虽然杰弗里·弗里德曼的《无知识的权力》为主导现代政治的技术官僚国家主义提供了一种受欢迎的纠正，但维特根斯坦的语言观点表明，概念异质性的问题并不像弗里德曼所认为的那样令人担忧。此外，弗里德曼的“出口统治”在认识论上和普通的技术统治一样苛刻，因此无法提供替代方案。然而，无政府主义可能会为技术官僚提供一个更一致的选择。

期刊介绍： Critical Review: A Journal of Politics and Society is a political-science journal dedicated to advancing political theory with an epistemological bent. Recurrent questions discussed in our pages include: How can political actors know what they need to know to effect positive social change? What are the sources of political actors’ beliefs? Are these sources reliable? Critical Review is the only journal in which the ideational determinants of political behavior are investigated empirically as well as being assessed for their normative implications. Thus, while normative political theorists are the main contributors to Critical Review, we also publish scholarship on the realities of public opinion, the media, technocratic decision making, ideological reasoning, and other empirical phenomena.
