    Jeet Heer Retweeted Zack Beauchamp

    To fall in this category I think you need to be 1) original 2) influence disciplines outside philosophy 3) influence people & institutions outside academia. But that criteria, I'd say Judith Butler.https://twitter.com/zackbeauchamp/status/1505582448771579906 …

    Who is the most recent thinker who unquestionably belongs in the canon of all-time philosophical greats? Rawls or Foucault (depending on how you date it)?

        I think I understand Rawls well, but Foucault very influential. Not sure about Butler. My pick: Thomas Kuhn.

        A very strange answer, when she isn’t taught in 90% of philosophy departments (analytic).

        That says more about analytical philosophy than about Butler.
