(BBVA Foundation) The BBVA Foundation Frontiers of Knowledge Award in the Humanities and Social Sciences category has gone to Noam Chomsky 'for his unparalleled contributions to the study of human language,' in the words of the award committee. Chomsky proposed that the human brain possesses an innate, pre-programmed knowledge enabling it to learn and develop language; a groundbreaking and now commonly accepted theory whose implications have set the agenda for new research efforts.
