Subject: HAB: a comparative article



can anybody help me? i'm looking for an article i know exists comparing habermas with the dialetical rights theory of alan gewirth.
I have been able to find the reference, and it's really bugging me.

seneca savoie

*****

   " The smart way to keep people passive and obedient is to strictly limit the spectrum of acceptable opinion, but allow very lively debate within that spectrum - even encourage the more critical and dissident views. That gives people the sense that there's free thinking going on, while all the time the presuppositions of the system are being
reinforced by the limits put on the range of the debate. "

                  Noam Chomsky, American linguist and US media and foreign policy critic
