卡尔·波普尔爵士(Sir Karl Raimund Popper)是当代西方杰出的科学哲学家和社会哲学家。他的《历史决定论的贫困》(The Poverty of Historicism)和《开放社会及其敌人》(The Open Society and its Enemies)是西方民主思想宝库中的经典著作。波普尔曾经由于这两部书获得过英国女皇颁授的爵位。
One of the most important books of the twentieth century, Karl Popper's The Open Society and Its Enemies is an uncompromising defense of liberal democracy and a powerful attack on the intellectual origins of totalitarianism. Popper was born in 1902 to a Viennese family of Jewish origin. He taught in Austria until 1937, when he emigrated to New Zealand in anticipation of the Nazi annexation of Austria the following year, and he settled in England in 1949. Before the annexation, Popper had written mainly about the philosophy of science, but from 1938 until the end of the Second World War he focused his energies on political philosophy, seeking to diagnose the intellectual origins of German and Soviet totalitarianism. The Open Society and Its Enemies was the result.
An immediate sensation when it was first published in two volumes in 1945, Popper's monumental achievement has attained legendary status on both the Left and Right and is credited with inspiring anticommunist dissidents during the Cold War. Arguing that the spirit of free, critical inquiry that governs scientific investigation should also apply to politics, Popper traces the roots of an opposite, authoritarian tendency to a tradition represented by Plato, Marx, and Hegel.
In a substantial new introduction written for this edition, acclaimed political philosopher Alan Ryan puts Popper's landmark work in biographical, intellectual, and historical context. Also included is a personal essay by eminent art historian E. H. Gombrich, in which he recounts the story of the book's eventual publication despite numerous rejections and wartime deprivations.
【按语:上卷的一个浮光掠影;附加下卷结尾部分。 《开放社会及其敌人(The open society and its enemies)》或许是一本古怪的书:一方面,你会讶异于Popper在知识上广博的跨度,他了解当代神学家Karl Barth的神学思想,分析了哲学家Whitehead的思想,对历史学家Tonybee的《...
评分波普尔所提到的开放社会,是针对柏拉图的理想国、黑格尔的民族国家以及马克思的无产阶级专政的国家而言,后面这三种国家的形式都会导致专制、独裁的封闭社会。 波普尔说,柏拉图的理想国,来自于一种对史前原始社会的浪漫幻想以及一种唯美主义。我认为波普尔过多揣测了别人的心...
评分Popper(波普或波普尔)最值得敬佩的地方在于他的批判精神和对理性的执着。开放社会的概念正是波普哲学在政治上的合理推论,了解所谓“批判理性主义”必读。 这种哲学态度的价值在于对极权主义有超强的抵抗力,然而却也容易陷入不可知论的泥沼。 Anyway,理性万岁!
评分查一本名叫《马克思主义——验尸》的书时无意间找到的,实在很佩服作者的做批判的勇气,基本没啥道理可讲,把书上的思想概括一下,再加点扭曲,然后就开始作神棍语了。 (《验尸》一书还没找到,有知道的朋友,请回帖告诉我,谢谢) 全文很长,名曰:析马克思主义意识形态理论...
思辨性极强、信息量极大的一本书。1)naive monism, the characteristic of the 'closed society'. critical dualism, of the 'open society';2)There is no meaning in history. (we make our fate. )3)目前读还很吃力。内功不够!
