About the book

Chomsky and Deconstruction responds to Noam Chomsky's criticisms of prominent theorists by exploring the historical dimensions of the prominant linguist's own philosophy of language. Wise suggests that the Cartesian basis of Chomsky's own thought complicates his claims to have escaped the ancient problems of metaphysics. This book offers a measured response to criticisms of deconstructive and empiricist theorists of language such as Jacques Derrida, Michel Foucault, Martin Heidegger, and Jacques Lacan. It also explores the necessary relation between Chomsky's linguistic theories and politic.
