Professor Chaim Perelman was interviewed by the Polish journalist and scholar, Dr. Wiktor Osiatynski1 in the summer of 1973 on the occasion of the International Philosophical Congress held in Varna, Bulgaria. The interview was published soon afterwards in the Polish-language weekly, Kultura. It never was publicized in the west. In this conversation, whose main topic was equality and justice, Perelman formulated some of his ideas concerning social values and their relationship to politics and reform. Here he articulated his ideas on these topics more clearly than they had been set forth in any of his writings. Apparently, in private conversations with friends he expressed his social and political ideas more succinctly than he did in his written texts prepared for formal purposes. |
