YouTube does it again!
Clips of the publicised debate that took place between Noam Chomsky and Michel Foucault in 1971, nicely summed up here as:
[O]ne of the most original, provocative, and spontaneous exchanges to have occurred between contemporary philosophers, and above all serves as a concise introduction to their basic theories. What begins as a philosophical argument rooted in linguistics (Chomsky) and the theory of knowledge (Foucault), soon evolves into a broader discussion encompassing a wide range of topics, from science, history, and behaviorism to creativity, freedom, and the struggle for justice in the realm of politics.
Enjoy.
