Critical Theory Today : On the Limits and Relevance of an Intellectual Tradition Paperback / softback
Edited by Denis C. Bosseau, Tom Bunyard
Part of the Political Philosophy and Public Purpose series
Paperback / softback
Description
This book considers whether critical theory is up to the task of addressing our contemporary crises, including the question of ‘post-truth’ discourse, psycho-social pathologies, the rise of right-wing populism, the Covid-19 pandemic, the anticolonial deficit in critical theory, and the neo-liberal management of the academy.
The contributors offer a series of timely and complex reflections on the nature of critical theory, its role in contemporary society, and its various developments since the early twentieth century.
In doing so, they analyse a variety of contemporary issues that, through critical reflection, can help us to navigate these problems.
This volume seeks to highlight problems and possibilities within this field of thought, and endeavours to contribute towards reconsidering its capabilities and relevance.
