The Minimalist Program (MP) has been around for about 25 years, and anecdotal evidence suggests that conventional wisdom thinks it a failure. This review argues that MP has been a tremendous success and has more than met the very high goals it had set for itself. This does not imply that there is not more to be done. There is, a lot more. But the problems are those characteristic of successful and ongoing research programs. Why the perception of failure? It arises from a misunderstanding concerning the aims of the minimalist project and what, given these aims, it is reasonable to expect. Once we clear up the nature of MP's goals, we will be better placed to judge (and appreciate) how far it has come.

25年后的极简计划

极简主义计划(MP)已有25年的历史了,传闻表明传统观念认为它是失败的。这篇评论认为,国会议员已经取得了巨大的成功,已经实现了自己设定的很高目标。这并不意味着没有更多的事情要做。还有很多。但是问题是成功和正在进行的研究计划的那些特征。为什么会有失败感?它是由于对最低限度项目的目标以及对这些目标的合理预期而产生的误解。一旦我们弄清了MP目标的本质,我们将可以更好地判断(并欣赏)它的发展。
