Noam Chomsky's Utopia of Free Will
Tamara Vukov
; Toronto
Sažetak
Starting from the discussions of the human nature, which are a crucial part of Noam Chomsky’s work, this paper discusses the position of politics in the context of Chomsky’s linguistic theory. His criticism of political systems, present in all his works, is taken into consideration, so as to arrive to the problem of elevating the thought and the free will. Chomsky emphasises his position on free will as the basis of human nature, as well as the correlation between the political and the linguistic theory, which he substantiates by arguments. The conclusion of this paper is that a further development in the study of language — which is the central point of Chomsky’s contribution to science — can lead to new knowledge about the inborn nature of the human beings. It is one of the preconditions for a further development of the political and social practice.
