本文首先讨论了拉博夫对乔姆斯基语言学的某些最新发展的影响，首先指出了拉博夫变分主义社会语言学与20世纪后半叶占主导地位的乔姆斯基理论语言学之间的关系，即两者之间的关系是两种截然不同的解读，即两者之间的关系是一种补充，还是一种替代。乔姆斯基学派在不同的标题下讨论了密切相关的语言水平上的变异、语言共同体水平上的变异和个体水平上的变异，从而证明了变异主义社会语言学的经验结果不容忽视。然而，这种处理并没有导致将变异整合到乔姆斯基理论中，也不可能。在最后一节中，我们概述了乔姆斯基唯心主义的拉博夫唯物主义替代品可能是什么。我们认为，这需要一个更广泛的社会语言学的定义，而不仅仅是变异主义，并提出要求的内部整合，即语言学科，和外部整合的语言科学与进化心理学，人类学和社会历史。
The paper first discusses the influence of Labov on certain recent Chomskyan developments, starting from an identification of two radically different readings of the relationship between Labovian variationist sociolinguistics and the dominant theoretical paradigm of the latter half of the 20th century which is Chomskyan theoretical linguistics, i.e. as either a supplement or an alternative. Variation at the level of closely related languages, at the level of the language community, and at the level of the individual, have all been treated by Chomskyans under various headings, thus giving evidence that empirical results stemming from variationist sociolinguistics cannot be ignored. However, the treatment has not led to an integration of variation into Chomskyan theory, nor could it. In the final section we outline what a Labovian materialist alternative to Chomskyan idealism could be. We argue that this calls for a broader definition of sociolinguistics than just variationism and poses demands for both internal integration, viz. of linguistic disciplines, and external integration of the language sciences with evolutionary psychology, anthropology and social history.
