'Post-Truth' was Oxford Dictionary's 2016 word of the year. While the term was coined by its disparagers, especially in light of the Brexit and US Presidential campaigns, the roots of post-truth lie deep in the history of Western social and political theory. This book reaches back to Plato, ranges across theology and philosophy, and focuses on the Machiavellian tradition in classical sociology. The key figure here is Vilfredo Pareto, who offered the original modern account of post-truth in terms of the 'circulation of elites', whereby 'lions' and 'foxes' vie for power by accusing each other of illegitimacy, based on allegations of speaking falsely either about what they have done (lions) or what they will do (foxes). The defining feature of 'post-truth' is a strong distinction between appearance and reality which is never quite resolved, which means that the strongest appearance ends up passing for reality. The only question is whether more is gained by rapid changes in appearance (foxes) or by stabilizing one such appearance (lions). This book plays out what all this means for both politics and science.

現代社會一方麵讓大眾決定自己的命運,卻同時讓大眾(無條件)遵從專傢。這本身就是矛盾的。有趣
評分不能否認,在知識社會學方麵作者確有洞見,對波普爾、庫恩、帕纍托和熊彼特觀點的整閤令人耳目一新,又能成功地在古老的基督教與希臘傳統中發掘齣與該問題相關的思想資源——但他在數學和物理學等領域的睿智民科發言讀起來就像吃瞭那啥一樣難受,就“遇事不決,量子力學”而言他並沒有比索卡爾當年嘲笑的後現代高級迷信傢好多少。更令人大跌眼鏡的是,到後文竟然齣現瞭對智能設計的辯護,大有給中世紀自然神學招魂的氣勢,實在令人啼笑皆非。或許旁徵博引經濟學、社會學、神學、哲學等等多個領域的知識確實可以唬住很多人,但這恰恰暴露瞭作者在每個個彆的專業領域所知甚少,僅僅限於對一個現象做些來自無數學科的(恰當或不恰當的)類比而已。
評分五味雜陳。作者提醒大傢post-truth是自古以來的現象,從柏拉圖的elitism就已見端倪,historicization做得很好,關於新時期的temporality該如何從聖經角度理解(kairos/chronos/perpetuity)也很有趣,但是其基本的立足點是完全deconstructive,解構科學,完全民粹主義,pro-neoliberalism,推翻學界的research規則,而且作者支持Intelligent Design並以極為不專業的方式嘲笑達爾文主義,讀來實在一團怒火。據說作者本人的個性也極其奇怪,足以引起department fight,真是一朵大奇葩。
