personally held such misguided and objectionable views. If you read the passage carefully, you see that this statement refers to "the debate," likely including various parties on both sides, not just Searle. Searle did not necessarily make any such statements. This passage is a non-sequitir, compared to the previous sentence. Searle did argue that in this case, the landlords were deprived off due process. This is not a sensational legal argument and it should not be sensationalized.

remain common, among both conservatives and progressives, notwithstanding the misguided invasion of Iraq. I didn't look up the source, but this passage appears to suggest that Searle described his own views as "neoconservative," "aggressive," and so on. This is unlikely. Once again, this passage is prejudicial.
1222:
I guess I should add that tbe article's description of Searle's views regarding the 9/11 attack are also prejudicial. Support for a signaled support for "a more aggressive neoconservative interventionist foreign policy" does not make him a colonialist or a morally suspect person. Such views were, and

Objecting to rent control is not the same thing as "attacks on affordable housing." Opinions vary, of course, but there is a legitimate debate about rent control. Many housing advocates assert that rent control exacerbates housing shortages in the long run, increasing the price of both rents and home

I saw somebody had categorized Searle under
Atheism without providing any details or source. (ex: Category:21st-century agnostics). I came across this primary source youtube video where he clearly states that he's an Agnostic, not a pure Atheist, and I updated the bottom category section accordingly.
1218:
In short, these passages seem to have been written by authors who dislike Searle because of his opposition to rent control in
Berkeley, and for other political reasons. They are not even-handed and they do not belong at the beginning of the article. They seem intended to prejudice the reader against

Regarding the "Searle decision," Searle was not the only plaintiff, he was one of many. He is not a lawyer and did not write the petition. The passage that says, "The court described the debate as a "morass of political invective, ad hominem attack, and policy argument" unfairly implies that Searle,

I have reverted a series of recent changes. Among other things, these changes placed the section on recent accusations against Searle at the very beginning of the article, before any of the other sections, which seems inappropriate and without justification. The reverted changes also gave sections

The Searle-Derrida section desperately needs editing. It is written with an obviously
Derridean Slant. It overly relies on jargon as well. A better section would mention that there's fairly widespread disagreement about what happened in the 'debate' and more importantly, that just about everyone
1226:
The article begins with Searle's support of the Free Speech
Movement at U.C. Berkeley, in the early 1960s. Some readers may find this admirable, but it is not particularly related to the large body of his teaching and philosophical publications. Searle is one of the most admired and influential

social reality. Hyenas don't have language so the rest follows and there is no contradiction, which means the article cannot correctly be identifying the second of two points apparently at issue (though the sentence before it, about the first point, does look OK as far as I can tell).
1145:
Searle also places language at the foundation of the construction of social reality while Lawson believes that community formation necessarily precedes the development of language and therefore there must be the possibility for non-linguistic social structure formation.
1141:
Fixing the other will probably need the attention of a
Wikipedian with access to Journal for the Theory of Social Behaviour (ISSN 1468-5914, apparently), but this existing sentence about Searle's Construction of Social Reality cannot be right:

Edit: A few minutes later... I do not normally edit wikipedia articles. I will leave the task of editing the Searle article to others more capable and experienced than me. I hope those others will consider the foregoing comments.

Merely changing "social reality" to "institutional reality" in the offending sentence *might* correct the problem but is at least as likely to be unfair to Lawson, whose account I have not read. -Soap
