Abstract

ABSTRACT Michel Foucault’s philosophy has recently come under sharp criticism across the political spectrum. While right-wing and centrist commentators identify Foucault as the intellectual progenitor of “woke” dogmatism and an irrationalist hostility to science, left-wing critics associate his work with neoliberalism and animosity towards the welfare state. Neither critique is grounded in an accurate understanding of the epistemological motivation of Foucault’s project.

我们现在都是福柯信徒吗?“文化战争”与后结构主义遗产

米歇尔·福柯(Michel Foucault)的哲学最近受到了政治领域的尖锐批评。右翼和中间派评论家认为福柯是“觉醒”教条主义和对科学的非理性主义敌意的知识先驱，而左翼评论家则将他的作品与新自由主义和对福利国家的敌意联系在一起。这两种批判都不是基于对福柯计划的认识论动机的准确理解。

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.
