Summary: | In Critical Marxism in Mexico , Stefan Gandler, coming from the tradition of the Frankfurt School, reveals the contributions that Adolfo S nchez V zquez and Bol var Echeverr a have made to universal thought. While in recent times Latin America has taken its distance from global power centers, and reorganised its political and economic relations, in philosophy the same tendency is barely visible. Critical Marxism in Mexico is a contribution to the reorganisation of international philosophical discussion, with Critical Theory as the point of departure.<br>Despite having studied in Europe, where philosophical Eurocentrism remains virulent, Gandler opens his eyes to another tradition of modernity and offers an account of the life and philosophy of Adolfo S nchez V zquez and Bol var Echeverr a, former senior faculty members at the Universidad Nacional Aut noma de M xico (UNAM). |
