摘要

战争的迷雾——缺乏关于敌人的情报——甚至可以挫败一支准备充分的军队。类似的事情也可能发生在智力辩论中。我所说的“辩论之雾”是一个很有用的比喻，可以用来解释辩论说服的失败和功能失调，这些失败和功能失调源于对对手信息的缺乏。我们很容易对对手的想法犯错误，也很容易无法理解他们对我们论点的理解和反应。在描述了辩论的迷雾并概述了其在认知和交流中的来源之后，我考虑了一些我们在得知自己处于这种迷雾中时可能采取的策略。

THE FOG OF DEBATE

Abstract The fog of war—poor intelligence about the enemy—can frustrate even a well-prepared military force. Something similar can happen in intellectual debate. What I call the fog of debate is a useful metaphor for grappling with failures and dysfunctions of argumentative persuasion that stem from poor information about our opponents. It is distressingly easy to make mistakes about our opponents’ thinking, as well as to fail to comprehend their understanding of and reactions to our arguments. After describing the fog of debate and outlining its sources in cognition and communication, I consider a few policies we might adopt upon learning we are in this fog.

期刊介绍： Social Philosophy and Policy is an interdisciplinary journal with an emphasis on the philosophical underpinnings of enduring social policy debates. The issues are thematic in format, examining a specific area of concern with contributions from scholars in different disciplines, especially philosophy, economics, political science and law. While not primarily a journal of policy prescriptions, some articles in each issue will typically connect theory with practice. The 2006 issues are "Justice and Global Politics" and "Taxation, Economic Prosperity, and Distributive Justice". The 2007 issues will be "Liberalism: Old and New" and "Ancient Greek Political Theory".
