内容説明

A collection of Ben Agger's essays on the origins, significance and applications of critical theory, a perspective associated with the Frankfurt School. These essays address a variety of interrelated topics including the viability of Marxian theory in late capitalism, new social movements, the politics of science and technology and the future of public life. More than an exercise in textual exegesis, this book applies critical theory to contemporary intellectual debates and social problems. As such, it explores the role of critical intellectuals in building a more humane society.

  • Introduction: critical theory goes public. Part 1 The literary production of discipline: critical theory, poststrucuralism, postmodernism
  • Marxism, feminism, deconstruction - writing the social
  • reading/writing otherwise - radical hermeneutics as critical theory

  • the dialectic of dialogue
