520 | |a "The idea of a critical theory is famous across the world, yet it is today rarely practiced as originally conceived by the Frankfurt School. The waning influence of critical theory in the contemporary academy may be due to its lack of engagement with global problems and the postcolonial condition. This book offers the first systematic treatment of the idea of a critical theory of world society, advancing the conversation between critical theory and postcolonial and ecological thought. It develops a reconstruction of the Frankfurt School tradition as four paradigms of critical theory, in original interpretations of the work of Max Horkheimer, Theodor W. Adorno, Jürgen Habermas and Axel Honneth, and considers how the global context has figured in their work and what might be salvaged for a critical theory of contemporary world society. It advances new interpretations of the relationship between critical theory and justice, the idea of communicative freedom and three conceptions of power in the Frankfurt School tradition. The book further offers extended discussions of two emerging paradigms in the work of Amy Allen and Rainer Forst. The book argues that a critical theory of world society must combine and integrate a Kantian constructivist approach in a critique of global injustice, as defended by Forst, with the reflexive check of a self-problematizing critique of its blind spots and taken-for-granted assumptions regarding the postcolonial condition, as defended by Allen. Finally, the book rethinks the relationship between society and nature in critical theory, with far-reaching normative and methodological implications"-- |c Provided by publisher. | ||
