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。
'If in this book harsh words are spoken about some of the greatest among the intellectual leaders of mankind, my motive is not, I hope, to belittle them. It springs rather from my conviction that, if our civilization is to survive, we must break with the habit of deference to great men.' - Karl Popper, from the Preface Written in political exile during the Second World War and first published in two volumes in 1945, Karl Popper's The Open Society and Its Enemies is one of the most influential books of all time. Hailed by Bertrand Russell as a 'vigorous and profound defence of democracy', its now legendary attack on the philosophies of Plato, Hegel and Marx exposed the dangers inherent in centrally planned political systems and through underground editions become an inspiration to lovers of freedom living under communism in Eastern Europe. Popper's highly accessible style, his erudite and lucid explanations of the thoughts of great philosophers and the recent resurgence of totalitarian regimes around the world are just three of the reasons for the enduring popularity of The Open Society and Its Enemies and why it demands to be read today and in years to come.
阿西莫夫在《基地》 中曾讲过一个故事,在基地的历史上,曾经遇到了僭主政权高罗的威胁。在双方交战中,基地人依靠强大的技术实力,施展了广泛的技术和经济制裁,使高度依靠基地产品的高罗人开始发现,自己的核动力刀切不动肉了,炉子点不起火了,洗衣机洗不动衣服了,温湿度控...
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...
评分提到民主,我就有太多的话不吐不快,尤其从范跑跑的这件事情中,我惊讶地发现中国民众的启蒙程度之低令人痛心,早在欧洲十八世纪就已经完成了的启蒙运动,竟到了今天也未在中国生根,倒是封建社会的那一套仁义道德,跨越了几千年历史的时空永生不死,盘踞在华夏大地简直称得...
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!
